TOOL USE AND CARE

Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
tool for the application. The correct tool will do
the job better and more safely at the rate that it
was designed to work at.
Do not use tools if switch does not turn it on or
off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source be-
fore making any adjustments, changing acces-
sories or storing the tool. This preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of accidental starting
of the tool.
When the power tool is not in use, store it out
of the reach of children, and do not allow in-
dividuals who are not familiar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate it. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands on untrained
users.
Maintain the power tool. Check for misalign-
ment or binding of moving parts, broken parts,
and any other condition that may affect the
operation of the power tool. If it is damaged,
have it repaired before using. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
Check for misalignment or bonding of moving
parts, breakage parts, and any other condition
that may affect the tools operation. If you find
a damaged tool, take it to service before use it.
Use only accessories that are recommended by
the manufacturer of your model. Suitable ac-
cessories for one tool, may become hazardous
when are used on another tool.
Keep cutting tools, sharpened and clean. Cut-
ting tools in good condition with sharpened
edges, are less likely to stuck in workpieces or
easier to control.
Is recommendable to use a safety device suit-
able, such a thermal and differential switch
when you are using an electric equipment.
SERVICE
Tool service must be performed only by quali-
fied repair personnel. Service or maintenance
performed by unqualified personnel could re-
sult in a risk of injury.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR
MOTO-TOOLS
• Accessories must be rated for at least the
speed recommended on the tool warning label.
• Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the sanding
10
tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed
metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the op-
erator.
• Always wear safety goggles and dust mask.
Use only in well ventilated area.
• After changing the bits or making any adjust-
ments, make sure the collet nut and any other
adjustment devices are securely tightened.
Loose adjustment device can unexpectedly shift,
causing loss of control, loose rotating compo-
nents will be violently thrown.
• Keep hands away from rotating parts.
• Allow brushes to run at operating speed for
at least one minute before using wheel. During
this time no one is to stand in front or in line
with the brush. Loose bristles or wires will be
discharged during the run-in time.
• Wire and bristle brushes must never be oper-
ated at speeds greater than 15,000 rpm. Direct
the discharge of the spinning wire brush away
from you. Small particles and tiny wire frag-
ments may be discharged at high velocity dur-
ing the "cleaning" action with these brushes
and may become imbedded in your skin. Bristles
or wires will be discharged from the brush at
high speeds.
• Use gloves and facial protection when using
bristle brushes. Apply the brush lightly over the
work piece.
• Carefully handle both the tool and individual
grinding wheels to avoid chipping or cracking.
Install a new wheel if tool is dropped while
grinding. Do not use a wheel that may be dam-
aged.
• Never use dull or damaged bits. Sharp bits
must be handled with care. Damaged bits can
snap during use. Dull bits require more force to
push the tool, possibly causing the bit to break.
• Use clamps to support workpiece whenever
practical.
• Inspect your workpiece before cutting. When
cutting irregularly shaped workpieces, plan your
work so it will not slip and pinch the bit and be
torn from your hand.
• The direction of feed with the bit into the ma-
terial when carving, routing or cutting is very
important. Always feed the bit into the material
in the same direction as the cutting edge is exit-
ing from the material (which is the same direc-
tion as the chips are thrown).
• Watch out for flying sparks. Hold the tool so
that any sparks will fly away from the operator
and other persons. Keep all flammable materials
away when using this drill.
