General power tool safety warnings

WARNING:
Read all safety warnings and
all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and instruc-
tions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.

Additional safety rules for tool

Wear protective glasses. Also wear hearing pro-
1.
tection during extended periods of operation.
2. Use only wheels recommended by the man-
ufacturer which have a maximum operating
speed at least as high as "No Load RPM"
marked on the tool's nameplate. Use only
fiberglass-reinforced cut-off wheels.
Check the wheel carefully for cracks or dam-
3.
age before operation. Replace cracked or
damaged wheel immediately.
Secure the wheel carefully.
4.
5. Use only flanges specified for this tool.
6. Be careful not to damage the spindle, flanges
(especially the installing surface) or bolt, or
the wheel itself might break.
7. Keep guards in place and in working order.
8. Hold the handle firmly.
9. Keep hands away from rotating parts.
10. Make sure the wheel is not contacting the
work-piece before the switch is turned on.
Before using the tool on an actual workpiece,
11.
let it simply run for several minutes first.
Watch for flutter or excessive vibration that
might be caused by poor installation or a
poorly balanced wheel.
12. Watch out for flying sparks when operating.
They can cause injury or ignite combustible
materials.
13. Remove material or debris from the area
that might be ignited by sparks. Be sure that
others are not in the path of the sparks. Keep
a proper, charged fire extinguisher closely
available.
14. Use the cutting edge of the wheel only. Never
use side surface.
15. If the wheel stops during the operation, makes
an odd noise or begins to vibrate, switch off
the tool immediately.
16. Always switch off and wait for the wheel to
come to a complete stop before removing,
securing workpiece, working vise, changing
work position, angle or the wheel itself.
17. Do not touch the workpiece immediately after
operation; it is extremely hot and could burn
your skin.
18. Store wheels in a dry location only.
19. Ensure that ventilation openings are kept clear
when working in dusty conditions. If it should
become necessary to clear dust, first disconnect
the tool from the mains supply (use non metallic
objects) and avoid damaging internal parts.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
INSTALLATION
WARNING:
This tool produces spark when
cutting a workpiece. Do not install this tool in
the place in which flammable and/or explosive
materials might be ignited by the spark from the
tool. Also make sure that there is no such material
near the tool before starting the operation.
Securing the base
This tool should be bolted with two bolts to a level and
stable surface using the bolt holes provided in the tool's
base. This will help prevent tipping over and possible
personal injury.
