9. 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 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.
10. 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 fly away
and cause injury beyond immediate area of
operation.
11. 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 could give the operator an electric
shock.
12. Always hold the tool firmly in your hand(s)
during the start-up. The reaction torque of the
motor, as it accelerates to full speed, can cause the
tool to twist.
13. Use clamps to support workpiece whenever
practical. Never hold a small workpiece in one
hand and the tool in the other hand while in use.
Clamping a small workpiece allows you to use your
hand(s) to control the tool. Round material such as
dowel rods, pipes or tubing have a tendency to roll
while being cut, and may cause the bit to bind or
jump toward you.
14. Position the cord
accessory. If you lose control, the cord may be cut
or snagged and your hand or arm may be pulled into
the spinning accessory.
15. Never lay the power tool down until the
accessory has come to a complete stop. The
spinning accessory may grab the surface and pull
the power tool out of your control.
16. After changing
adjustments, make sure the collet nut, chuck or
any other adjustment devices are securely
tightened. Loose
unexpectedly shift, causing loss of control, loose
rotating components will be violently thrown.
17. 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.
18. 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.
19. Do not operate the power tool near flammable
materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.
20. 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 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.
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 causing the wheel to climb out or kick out. The
wheel may either jump toward or away from the operator,
depending on direction of the wheel's movement at the
point of pinching. Abrasive wheels may also break under
these conditions.
Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or
incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be
avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.
a) Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and
position your body and arm to allow you to
resist kickback forces. The operator can
control kickback forces, if proper precautions are
taken.
b) Use special care when working corners,
sharp edges etc. Avoid bouncing and
snagging the accessory. Corners, sharp edges
or bouncing have a tendency to snag the rotating
accessory and cause loss of control or kickback.
c) Do not attach a toothed saw blade. Such
blades create frequent kickback and loss of
control.
d) Always feed the bit into the material in the
same direction as the cutting edge is exiting
from the material (which is the same
direction as the chips are thrown). Feeding
the tool in the wrong direction causes the cutting
edge of the bit to climb out of the work and pull
the tool in the direction of this feed.
Safety Warnings Specific for Grinding:
a) Use only wheel types that are recommended
for your
recommended applications.
b) Do not position your hand in line with and
behind the rotating wheel. When the wheel, at
the point of operation, is moving away from your
any
hand, the possible kickback may propel the
spinning wheel and the power tool directly at
you.

Additional Safety Warnings:
21. The tool is intended for use with bonded
abrasive
permanently mounted on plain, unthreaded
mandrel (shanks).
22. Make sure the wheel is not contacting the
workpiece before the switch is turned on.
23. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let
it run for a while. Watch for vibration or wobbling
that could indicate poor installation or a poorly
balanced wheel.
24. Use the specified surface of the wheel to
perform the grinding.
25. Watch out for flying sparks. Hold the tool so that
sparks fly away from you and other persons or
flammable materials.
26. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only when hand-held.
