Personal safety
f No children or pregnant women should enter the work
area where the paint sanding is being done until all
cleanup is completed.
f A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all
persons entering the work area. The filter should be
replaced daily or whenever the wearer has difficulty
breathing.
Note: only those dust masks suitable for working with
lead paint dust and fumes should be used. Ordinary
painting masks do not offer this protection. See your
local hardware dealer for the NIOSH approved proper
mask.
Environmental safety
f Paint should be removed in such a manner as to
minimize the amount of dust generated.
f Areas where paint removal is occurring should be
sealed with plastic sheeting of 4 mils
f Sanding should be done in a manner to reduce
tracking of paint dust outside the work area.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Helpful hints
f Hold your angle grinder with one hand on the body
and the other hand firmly around the side handle as
shown in Fig. I.
f Always position the guard so that as much of the
exposed disc as possible is pointing away from you.
f Be prepared for a stream of sparks when the disc
touches the metal.
f Maintain an angle between the disc and work surface
(Fig. J) of approximately 30° when grinding and 10°-
15° when sanding (Fig. K) for best tool control,
material removal, and minimal loading.
Caution! Use extra care when grinding into a corner
as a sudden, sharp movement of the grinder may be
experienced when the wheel contacts a secondary
surface.
Warning! Always wear eye protection while operating
this power tool.

only by trained power tool repairperson's such as those
at STANLEY service centers or in other qualified service
personnel.
CLEANING
Blowing dust and grit out of the motor housing using
compressed air is a necessary maintenance procedure.
