Special safety information
General Safety Recommendations for grinding, sanding, wire brushing, polishing and cutting-off operations:
Use
a) This power tool is intended to function as a sander or polisher. Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury
b) Operations such as grinding, sanding, wire brushing or cutting-off 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 tool, 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 rated 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 sanding 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 damaged 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 a 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 equipment. Depending on application, use face shield, safety goggles 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 loss
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 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 shock the operator
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
I) 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
