4 Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate
for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot
be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must
be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable,
from the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions to
operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools and accessories.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tool's
operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused
by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions and
the work to be performed. Use of the power tool
for operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery
handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe
handling and control of the tool in unexpected
situations.
5 Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.

Special Safety Instructions

General safety instructions for grinding:
Use
a) This power tool is designed for surface
grinding. Refer to all safety warnings, instruc-
tions, illustrations and specifications provided
with this power tool. Failure to follow all the
instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.

b) This power tool is not suitable for routing,
polishing, sanding, working with roughing
discs, wire brushes, parting grinder discs or
flap discs. Using the power tool for tasks for which
it was not designed may create a hazard and cause
personal injury.
c) Do not use accessories that are not specifi-
cally designed and recommended by the tool
manufacturer. Just because an accessory can be
attached to your power tool does not mean safe
operation is guaranteed.
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 fly apart.
e) The outside diameter and the thickness of
your accessory must be within the capacity
rating of your power tool. Incorrectly sized acces-
sories cannot be adequately protected or
controlled.
f) Threaded mounting of accessories must
match the grinder spindle thread. For accesso-
ries mounted by flanges, the arbour hole of the
accessory must fit the locating diameter of the
flange. Accessories 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
use, always check accessories for splinters or
cracks and check grinding wheels for cracks or
signs of severe wear and tear. If a power tool or
accessory is dropped, inspect for damage or
install an undamaged accessory. After
inspecting and installing an accessory, posi-
tion 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 the application, use a face
shield, safety goggles or safety glasses. As
appropriate, wear a dust mask, hearing protec-
tors, gloves and workshop apron capable of
stopping small abrasive or workpiece frag-
ments. The eye protection must be capable of stop-
ping flying debris generated by various operations.
The dust mask or respirator must be capable of
filtering particles generated by your operation.
Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may
cause hearing loss.
i) Keep bystanders a safe distance away from
your work area. Anyone entering the work area
must wear personal protective equipment.
Fragments of a workpiece or broken accessory may
fly into the air and cause injury beyond the imme-
diate 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. A cutting acces-
sory that comes in contact with a "live" wire may
render exposed metal parts of the power tool "live"
and give the operator an electric shock.
