CUTTING-OFF OPERATIONS
a) This power tool is intended to function as a
grinder, sander, polisher or cut-off tool. Read all
safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and
specifi cations provided with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result
in electric shock, fi re and/or serious injury.
b) Operations such as wire brushing 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 use accessories which are not specifi cally
designed and recommended
manufacturer.
Just because the accessory can be attached to your
power tool, it does not assure safe operation.
d) 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 fl y apart.
e) 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.
f) The arbour size of wheels, fl anges, backing pads
or any other accessory must properly fi t the
spindle of the power tool.
Accessories with arbour holes that do not match the
mounting hardware of the power tool will run out of
balance, vibrate excessively and may cause loss of
control.
g) Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use
inspect the accessory such as abrasive wheels
for chips and cracks, backing pad for cracks, tear
or excess wear, wire brush for loose or cracked
only with specifi cally
by the tool
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.
h) 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 fl ying
debris generated by various operations. The dust mask
or respirator must be capable of fi ltrating particles
generated by your operation.
Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may cause
hearing loss.
i) 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
fl y away and cause injury beyond immediate area of
operation.
j) Hold 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 contacting a "live" wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and shock
the operator.
k) Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory.
If you lose control, the cord may be cut or snagged
and your hand or arm may be pulled into the spinning
accessory.

The spinning accessory may grab the surface and pull
the power tool out of your control.
m) Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your
side.
Accidental contact with the spinning accessory could
snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into your
body.
n) Regularly clean the power tool's air vents.
The motor's fan will draw the dust inside the housing
and excessive accumulation of powdered metal may
cause electrical hazards.
o) Do not operate the power tool near fl ammable
materials.
Sparks could ignite these materials.
p) Do not use accessories that require liquid
coolants.
Using water or other liquid coolants may result in
electrocution or shock.

KICKBACK AND RELATED WARNINGS

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged
rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or any other accessory.
Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling of the
rotating accessory which in turn causes the uncontrolled
power tool to be forced in the direction opposite of the
accessory's rotation at the point of the binding.
For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or pinched
by the workpiece, the edge of the wheel that is entering
into the pinch point can dig into the surface of the material
