holes that do not match the mounting hardware of
the power tool will run out of balance, vibrate exces-
sively and may cause loss of control.
Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each
use inspect the accessory such as abrasive
wheels for chips and cracks, backing pads for
cracks, tear or excess wear, wire brushes for
loose or cracked wires. If the power tool or
accessory is dropped, inspect for damage or
install an undamaged accessory. After inspect-
ing and installing an accessory, position your-
self and bystanders away from the plane of the
rotating accessory and run the power tool at
maximum no-load speed for one minute. Dam-
aged accessories will normally break apart dur-
ing this test time.
Wear personal protective equipment. Depend-
ing on application, use face shield, safety gog-
gles or safety glasses. As appropriate, wear
dust mask, hearing protectors, gloves and shop
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 the workpiece or of a broken accessory may fly
away and cause injury beyond the immediate
area of operation.
Hold the power tool only by the insulated grip-
ping surfaces when performing an operation
where the cutting tool may contact hidden wir-
ing or its own power cord. Contact with a "live"
wire will also make exposed metal parts of the
power tool "live" and shock the operator.
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.
Never lay the power tool down until the acces-
sory has come to a complete stop. The spinning
accessory may grab the surface and pull the
power tool out of your control.
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.
