SAFETY WARNINGS COMMON FOR
GRINDING, SANDING, WIRE BRUSHING,
POLISHING, CARVING OR ABRASIVE
CUTTING-OFF OPERATIONS
 This power tool is intended to function as a grinder,
sander, wire brush, polisher, carving or cut-off tool.
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations
and specifications provided with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result
in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
 Do not use accessories which are not specifically
designed and recommended by the tool manufacturer.
Just because the accessory can be attached to your
power tool, it does not assure safe operation.
 The rated speed of accessories must be at least equal
to the operating speed setting marked on the power
tool. Accessories running faster than their rated speed
can break and fly apart.
 The outside diameter and the thickness of your
accessory must be within the capacity rating of your
power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories cannot be
adequately controlled.
 The arbour size of wheels, sanding drums or any other
accessory must properly fit the spindle or collet of the
power tool. 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.
 Mandrel mounted wheels, sanding drums, cutters or
other accessories must be fully inserted into the collet
or chuck. If the mandrel is insufficiently held and/or the
overhang of the wheel is too long, the mounted wheel
may become loose and be ejected at high velocity.
 Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use
inspect the accessory such as abrasive wheels for
chips and cracks, sanding drum for cracks, tear or
excess wear, wire brush for loose or cracked wires.
If power tool or accessory is dropped, inspect for
damage or install an undamaged accessory. After
inspecting and installing an accessory, position
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.
 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.

ROTARY TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

 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.
 Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only,
when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden 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.
 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.
 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.
 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 accessory
has come to a complete stop. The spinning accessory
may grab the surface and pull the power tool out of your
control.
 After changing the bits or making any adjustments,
make sure the collet nut, chuck or any other
adjustment devices are securely tightened. Loose
adjustment devices can unexpectedly shift, causing loss
of control, loose rotating components will be violently
thrown.
 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.
 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.
 Do not operate the power tool near flammable
materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.
 Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants.
Using water or other liquid coolants may result in
electrocution or shock.
 T
he maximum recommended diameter of mounted
wheels, threaded cones and plugs shall not exceed
2.16 in. (55 mm) and that the maximum recommended
diameter of sanding accessories shall not exceed 3.14 in.
(80 mm).
