Additional safety warnings
1. Watch out for flying sparks when operating.
They can cause injury or ignite combustible
materials.
2. Secure work. Use clamps or a vise to hold
work when practical. It's safer than using your
hand and it frees both hands to operate tool.
3. Secure the wheel carefully.
4. Be careful not to damage the spindle, flanges
(especially the installing surface) or bolt, or
the wheel itself might break.
5. Keep guards in place and in working order.
Hold the handle firmly.
6.
7. Keep hands away from rotating parts.
8. Make sure the wheel is not contacting the
work-piece before the switch is turned on.
Before each use, watch for flutter or excessive
9.
vibration that might be caused by poor instal-
lation or a poorly balanced wheel.
10. 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.
11. If the wheel stops during the operation, makes
an odd noise or begins to vibrate, switch off
the tool immediately.
12. 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.
13. Do not touch the workpiece immediately after
operation; it is extremely hot and could burn
your skin.
14. Store wheels in a dry location only.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
