SAFETY INFORMATION
Service
• Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
• When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in
the maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow
maintenance instructions may create a risk of electric shock or injury.
Specific Safety Rules
1. The guard provided with the tool must be securely attached to the power tool and
positioned for maximum safety, so the least amount of wheel is exposed towards the
operator. Position yourself and bystanders away from the plane of the rotating wheel.
The guard helps to protect operator from broken wheel fragments and accidental contact
with wheel.
2. Use only diamond cut-off wheels for your power tool. Just because an accessory can
be attached to your power tool, it does not assure safe operation.
3. 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.
4. Wheels must be used only for recommended applications. For example: do not grind
with the side of cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended for peripheral grinding,
side forces applied to these wheels may cause them to shatter.
5. Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are of correct diameter for your selected
wheel. Proper wheel flanges support the wheel thus reducing the possibility of wheel
breakage.
6. 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.
7. The arbour size of wheels and flanges must properly fit the spindle of the power tool.
Wheels and flanges with arbour holes that do not match the mounting hardware of the
power tool will run out of balance, vibrate excessively and may cause loss of control.
8. Do not use damaged wheels. Before each use, inspect the wheels for chips and
cracks. If power tool or wheel is dropped, inspect for damage or install an
undamaged wheel. After inspecting and installing the wheel, position yourself and
bystanders away from the plane of the rotating wheel and run the power tool at
maximum no load speed for one minute. Damaged wheels will normally break apart
during this test time.
9. Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on application, use face shield,
safety goggles or safety glasses. As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing protectors,
gloves and shop 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.
10. 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
wheel may fly away and cause injury beyond immediate area of operation.
