TIME, READ THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL AND KEEP IT FOR
FUTURE REFERENCE.
DETAILED SAFETY REGULATIONS
Safety Warnings Common for Grinding, Sanding, Wire
Brushing, Polishing or Abrasive Cutting-Off Operations:
a) This power tool is intended to function as a polisher. Failure to
follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
b) Operations such as a grinding, slandering, wire brushing, or
cutting-off tool. Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool.
are not recommended to be performed with this power tool.
Operations for which the power tool was not designed may create
a hazard and cause personal injury.
c) Do not use accessories which are not specifically designed
and recommended by the tool manufacturer. Just because the
accessory can be attached to your power too, it does not assure
safe operation.
d) The rated speed of the accessory must be at least equal to the
maximum speed marked on the power tool. Accessories running
faster than their speed can break and fly apart.
e) The outside diameter and the thickness of your accessory
must be within the capacity rating of your power tool.
Incorrectly sized accessories cannot be adequately guarded or
controlled.
f) Threaded mounting of accessories must match the grinder
spindle thread. For accessories mounted by flanges, the
arbour hole of the accessory must fit the locating diameter of
the flange. Accessories that do not match the mounting hardware
of the power tool will run out of balance, vibrate excessively and
may cause loss of control.
g) Do not use a damage accessory. Before each use inspect the
accessory such as abrasive wheels for chips and cracks,
backing pad for cracks, tear or excess wear, wire brush for
loose or cracked wires. If power tool or accessory is dropped,
inspect for damage or install an undamaged accessory. After
inspecting and installing an accessory, position yourself and
bystanders away from the plane of the rotating accessory and
run the power tool at maximum no-load speed for one minute.
Damaged accessories will normally break apart during this test
time.
h) Wear
personal
protective
application, use face shield, safety googles or safety glasses.
As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing protectors, gloves
and workshop apron capable of stopping small abrasive or
workpiece fragments. The eye protection must be capable of
stopping flying debris generated by various operations. The dust
mask or respirator must be capable of filtrating particles generated
by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may
cause hearing loos.
i) Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work area. Anyone
entering the work area must wear personal protective
equipment. Fragments of workpiece or of a broken accessory may
fly away and cause injury beyond immediate area of operation.
j) Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, when
performing an operation where the cutting accessory may
contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory
contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
k) Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory. If you lose
control, the cord may be cut or snagged and your hand or arm may
be pulled into the spinning accessory.
l) Never lay the power tool down until the accessory has come to
a complete stop. The spinning accessory may grab the surface
and pull the power tool out of your control.

equipment.
Depending
m) Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your side.
Accidental contact with the spinning accessory could snag your
clothing, pulling the accessory into your body.
n) Regularly clean the power tool's air vents. The motor's fan will
draw the dust inside the housing and excessive accumulation of
powdered metal may cause electrical hazards.
o) Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials. Sparks
could ignite these materials.
p) Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water
or other liquid coolants may result in electrocution or shock.
Kickback and Related Warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged rotating
wheel, backing pad, brush or any other accessory. Pinching or
snagging causes rapid stalling of the rotating accessory which in
turn causes the uncontrolled power tool to be forced in the direction
opposite of the accessory's rotation at the point of the binding.
For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or pinched by the
workpiece, the edge of the wheel that is entering into the pinch point
can dig into the surface of the material causing the wheel to climb
out or kick out. The wheel may either jump toward or away from
operator, depending on direction of the wheel's movement at the
point of pinching. Abrasive wheels may also break under these
conditions.
Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or incorrect
operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking
proper precautions as given below.
a) Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position your body
and arm to allow you to resist kickback forces. Always use
auxiliary handle, if provided, for maximum control over
kickback or torque reaction during start-up. The operator can
control torque reaction or kickback forces, if proper precautions are
taken.
b) Never place your hand near the rotating accessory. Accessory
may kickback over your hand.
c) Do not position your body in the area where power tool will
move if kickback occurs. Kickback will propel the tool in direction
opposite to the wheel's movement at the point of snagging.
d) Use special care when working corners, sharp edges etc.
Avoid bouncing and snagging the accessory. Corners, sharp
edges or bouncing have a tendency to snag the rotating accessory
and cause loss of control of kickback.
e) Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or toothed saw
blade. Such blades create frequent kickback and loss of control.
Safety Warnings Specific for Polishing Operations:
a) Do not allow any loose portion of the polishing bonnet or its
attachment strings to spin freely. Tuck away or trim any loose
on
attachment strings. Loose and spinning attachment strings can
entangle your fingers or snag on the workpiece.
Additional safety Warnings:
a) In tools adapted to attach grinding wheels with a threaded hole,
check whether the thread length of the grinding wheel is suitable for
the length of the spindle thread.
b) Secure the workpiece. Attaching the workpiece to the clamping
device or vise is safer than holding it in your hand.
c) Do not touch the cutting and grinding discs until they have cooled
down.
d) When using a quick-setting flange, make sure that the internal
flange mounted on the spindle is equipped with a rubber O-
ring and that the ring is undamaged. It should also be ensured
that the surfaces of the external flange and the internal flange
are clean.
e) Use the quick clamping flange only with abrasive and cutting
discs. Only use undamaged and properly functioning flanges.
f) In the event of a temporary power outage in the network or after
removing the plug from the power socket with the switch in the "on"
position, before re-starting, unlock the switch and set it in the off
position.
