Service
1.
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.
2.
Never service damaged battery packs. Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
3.
Follow instruction for lubricating and chang-
ing accessories.
Do not modify or attempt to repair the appli-
4.
ance or the battery pack except as indicated in
the instructions for use and care.
Cutter safety warnings
1.
The guard provided with the tool must be
securely attached to the power tool and
positioned for maximum safety, so the least
amount of wheel is exposed towards the oper-
ator. Position yourself and bystanders away
from the plane of the rotating wheel. The guard
helps to protect operator from broken wheel frag-
ments and accidental contact with wheel.
2.
Use only diamond cut-off wheels for your
power tool. Just because an accessory can be
attached to your power tool, it does not assure
safe operation.
3.
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.
4.
Wheels must be used only for recommended
applications. For example: do not grind with
the side of cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels
are intended for peripheral grinding, side forces
applied to these wheels may cause them to
shatter.
Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are
5.
of correct diameter for your selected wheel.
Proper wheel flanges support the wheel thus
reducing the possibility of wheel breakage.
The outside diameter and the thickness of your
6.
accessory must be within the capacity rating
of your power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories
cannot be adequately guarded or controlled.
7.
The arbour size of wheels and flanges must
properly fit the spindle of the power tool.
Wheels and flanges 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.
8.
Do not use damaged wheels. Before each
use, inspect the wheels for chips and cracks.
If power tool or wheel is dropped, inspect for
damage or install an undamaged wheel. After
inspecting and installing the wheel, position
yourself and bystanders away from the plane
of the rotating wheel and run the power tool
at maximum no load speed for one minute.
Damaged wheels will normally break apart during
this test time.
9.
Wear personal protective equipment.
Depending on application, use face shield,
safety goggles or safety glasses. As appro-
priate, 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 hear-
ing 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 wheel may
fly away and cause injury beyond immediate area
of operation.
11.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only, when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory may contact hid-
den wiring. 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. Never lay the power tool down until the acces-
sory has come to a complete stop. The spinning
wheel may grab the surface and pull the power
tool out of your control.
13. 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.
14. Regularly clean the power tool's air vents. The
motorʼs fan will draw the dust inside the housing
and excessive accumulation of powdered metal
may cause electrical hazards.
15. Do not operate the power tool near flammable
materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.
Kickback and related warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged
rotating wheel. Pinching or snagging causes rapid
stalling of the rotating wheel which in turn causes the
uncontrolled power tool to be forced in the direction
opposite of the wheel'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 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 move-
ment 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.
Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and
1.
position your body and arm to allow you to
resist kickback forces. Always use auxiliary
handle, if provided, for maximum control over
kickback or torque reaction during start-up.
The operator can control torque reactions or kick-
back forces, if proper precautions are taken.
2.
Never place your hand near the rotating acces-
sory. Accessory may kickback over your hand.
