• Ensure the cutting/grinding disc or accessory is fitted correctly and securely before use.
Run the tool with the disc or accessory fitted, but without load, for a reasonable time
before attempting to cut/grind/sand. If excessive vibration occurs, stop the tool, investigate
and correct the cause before use. Seek professional guidance if you are in doubt about how to
operate the tool safely.
• All discs and accessories must be checked before installation. If a disc is damaged in any
way, by being chipped, fractured, warped or misshapen, DO NOT USE AND DISCARD. If you are
unsure about whether a disc is safe to operate, DO NOT USE AND DISCARD.
• Do not allow discs to become wet or contaminated with oil. If you suspect that a disc has
degraded in storage, or if you are unsure about whether its expiry date has passed, DO NOT USE
AND DISCARD.
• Do not attempt to cut or grind magnesium or any alloy that has high magnesium content
• Hold the tool appropriately to ensure that debris produced does not land on skin or
clothing
• Do not operate the spindle lock while the sander is running
• Discs will continue to rotate for some time after the tool has been switched OFF. Allow the
moving parts to stop completely without interference. Do not try to stop the tool by holding
an object against the disc. NEVER place the sander down until the disc has completely
stopped moving.
• A sanding wheel or disc will gradually wear down during use, reducing its size. If a wheel
or disc becomes too small to work with easily, stop using it and replace it with a new disc.
