Safety Warnings Common for Grinding, Sanding,
Wire Brushing, Polishing or Abrasive Cutting-Off
Operations:
a.) This power tool is intended to function as a
sander or polisher. Failure to follow instruc-
tions listed below may result in electric shock,
fire and/or serious injuries.
b.) This electric power tool is not suitable for
grinding, wire brushing and cutting-off oper-
ations. Uses for which the power tool is not
intended can cause hazards and injuries.
c.) Do not use accessories which are not
designed or recommended by the manufac-
turer specifically for this power tool. Just
because the accessory can be attached to your
power tool does not assure safe use.
d.) The rated speed of the bits and cutters must
be at least equal to the maximum speed spec-
ified on the power tool. Accessories that turn
faster than their rated speed can break and fly
apart.
e.) The outside diameter and thickness of the bits
and cutters must be within the capacity rating
of your power tool. Incorrectly sized bits and
cutters cannot be adequately guarded or con-
trolled.
f.) The arbour size of discs, flanges, grinding
discs or other accessories must properly fit
the grinding spindle of your power tool. Bits
and cutters that do not fit the grinding spindle
of the power tool properly will turn unevenly,
vibrate very strongly and cause loss of control.
g.) Do not use damaged bits and cutters. Before
each use, inspect bits and cutters such as
sanding discs for chips and cracks, grinding
discs for cracks, strong wear or tear, wire
brushes for loose or broken wires. If the power
tool or bits and cutters are dropped, check for
damage or install undamaged bits and cut-
ters. After you have inspected and installed
the bits and cutters, keep yourself and any
other persons in the vicinity away from the
plane of the rotating bits and cutters and run
the device at maximum rotational speed for
one minute. Damaged bits and cutters usually
break during this test time.
