c ) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off position before connecting to power source and/or
battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power
tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that
have the switch on invitesaccidents.
d ) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the
power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part
of the power tool may result in personalinjury.
e ) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpectedsituations.
f ) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in
movingparts.
g ) If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce
dust-relatedhazards.
h ) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools
allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety
principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a
fraction of asecond.
4) Power tool use and care
a ) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool
for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it wasdesigned.
b ) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it
on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must berepaired.
c ) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or
the battery pack from the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
power toolaccidentally.
d ) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or
these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrainedusers.
e ) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If
damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained powertools.
f ) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and
are easier tocontrol.
g ) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in
accordance with these instructions taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of
the power tool for operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardoussituation.
h ) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and
free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping
surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in
unexpectedsituations.
5) Service
a ) 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.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL OPERATIONS
Safety Warnings Common for Grinding, Sanding, Wire
Brushing, or Cutting-Off Operations:
a ) This power tool is intended to function as a grinder,
sander (DWE4238 is excluded), wire brush or cut-off tool.
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 polishing and sanding (DWE4238)
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 convert this power tool to operate in a way
which is not specifically designed and specified by the tool
manufacturer. Such a conversion may result in a loss of control
and cause serious personal injury.
d ) Do not use accessories which are not specifically
designed and specified by the tool manufacturer. Just
because the accessory can be attached to your power tool, it does
not assure safeoperation.
e ) 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.
f ) 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.
g ) The dimensions of the accessory mounting must fit the
dimensions of the mounting hardware of the power tool.
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.
h ) Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use
inspect the accessory such as abrasive wheel 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.
i ) 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.
j ) 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.
k ) 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
