Original Instructions
■ This power tool is intended to
function as a grinder, sander, wire
brush, polisher, carving 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.
■ 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.
■ The rated speed of the grinding
accessories must be at least equal
to the maximum speed marked on
the power tool. Grinding accessories
running faster than their rated speed
can break and fly apart.
■ 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
controlled.
■ The arbour size of wheels, sanding
drums or any other accessory must
properly fit the spindle or collet 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.
■ Mandrel mounted wheels, sanding
drums, cutters or other accessories
must be fully inserted into the
collet or chuck. If the mandrel is
insufficiently held and/or the overhang
of the wheel is too long, the mounted
wheel may become loose and be
ejected at high velocity.
■ Do not use a damaged accessory.
Before each use inspect the
accessory such as abrasive wheels
for chips and cracks, sanding drum
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.
■ 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.
■ 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.
■ Hold power tool by insulated
gripping surfaces only, when
performing an operation where
the cutting accessory may contact
hidden wiring. Cutting accessory
