SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES AND SYMBOLS

1. Safety Warnings Common for
Polishing Operations
(a) This power tool is intended to function
as a polisher. 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.
(b) Operations such as grinding, sanding,
wire brushing, or cutting-off are not
recommended to be performed with this
power tool. Operations for which the power
tool was not designed may create a hazard
and cause personal injury.
(c) 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.
(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 measured insertion tools cannot
be adequately shielded or controlled.
(f) Sanding discs, sanding pads or other
accessories must fit exactly on the grinding
spindle of your electric power tool.
Insertion tools, which do not fit exactly on
the grinding spindle of the electric power
tool, rotate unevenly, vibrate violently and
may result in loss of control.
(g) Do not use a damaged accessory.
Before use, always check insertion tools for
splinters and cracks, sanding pad
for cracks, wear and severe abrasion.
If power tool or accessory is dropped,
inspect for damage or install an un-
damaged accessory. After inspecting and
6
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.
(h) Wear personal protective equipment.
Depending on application, use face shield,
safety goggles or safety glasses.
If appropriate, wear a dust mask, hearing
protection, protective gloves and/or
a special apron which protect you from
small sanding and material particles.
The eye protection must be capable of stop-
ping 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.
(i) 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.
(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.
Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire
may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and shock the operator.
(k) 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.
(l) 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.
(m) Do not run the power tool while carrying
it at your side. Accidental contact with the
spinning accessory could snag your clo-
thing, pulling the accessory into your body.
