Features
E‑Switch Protection™
The ON/OFF paddle and slide switches have a no‑volt
release function.In the event of an unexpected shut down,
the switch will need to be cycled off and then back on to
restarttool.
E–Clutch™
This unit is equipped with an E‑Clutch™ (Electronic Clutch),
which in the event of a high‑load, the unit will shut off to
reduce the reaction torque to the user. The switch will need
to be cycled off and then back on to restarttool.
Kickback Brake™
When a pinch, stall, or bind‑up event is sensed, the
electronic brake engages with maximum force to quickly
stop the wheel, reduce the movement of the grinder, and
Additional Safety Information

WARNING: Never modify the power tool or any part of it.
Damage or personal injury couldresult.

WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or dust
mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED
SAFETYEQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratoryprotection.

WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains
chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these
chemicalsare:
• lead from lead‑based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry
products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically‑treatedlumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how
often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopicparticles.
• Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with
soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or
lay on the skin may promote absorption of harmfulchemicals.
Direct particles away from face andbody.
• Use the appropriate dust extractor vacuum to remove
the vast majority of static and airborne dust. Failure
to remove static and airborne dust could contaminate the
working environment or pose an increased health risk to the
operator and those in closeproximity.
• Use clamps or other practical ways to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the
work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead
to loss of control andinjury.
• Air vents often cover moving parts and should be
avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in
movingparts.

CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its side
on a stable surface where it will not cause a tripping
or falling hazard. Some tools with large battery packs
will stand upright on the battery pack but may be easily
knockedover.
e ) Support panels or any oversized workpiece to
minimize the risk of wheel pinching and kickback. Large
workpieces tend to sag under their own weight. Supports
must be placed under the workpiece near the line of cut and
near the edge of the workpiece on both sides of thewheel.
f ) Use extra caution when making a “pocket cut” into
existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding wheel
may cut gas or water pipes, electrical wiring or objects that
can causekickback.
g ) Do not attempt to do curved cutting. Overstressing
the wheel increases the loading and susceptibility to twisting or
binding of the wheel in the cut and the possibility of kickback or
wheel breakage, which can lead to seriousinjury.
Safety Warnings Specific for SandingOperations
a ) Use proper sized sanding disk paper. Follow
manufacturer's recommendations, when selecting
sanding paper. Larger sanding paper extending too far
beyond the sanding pad presents a laceration hazard and may
cause snagging, tearing of the disc orkickback.
Safety Warnings Specific for Wire
BrushingOperations
a ) Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the brush
even during ordinary operation. Do not overstress the
wires by applying excessive load to the brush. The wire
bristles can easily penetrate light clothing and/orskin.
b ) If the use of a guard is specified for wire brushing,
do not allow any interference of the wire wheel or brush
with the guard. Wire wheel or brush may expand in diameter
due to work and centrifugalforces.
c ) Safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields
and a full face shield compliant with ANSI Z87.1 MUST
be worn by the operator and others that are within 50'
(15.2 m) of the use of thisproduct.
