tool. Failure to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious injury.
b) This power tool is not recommended for
grinding,sanding, wire brushing or
cutting off operations.Operations for
which the power tool was not designed
may create a hazard and cause
personal injury.
c) Do not allow any loose portion of the
polishing bonnet or its attachment
strings to spin freely. Tuck away or trim
any loose attachment strings. Loose
and spinning attachment strings can
entangle your fingers or snag on the
workpiece.
d) 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.
e) 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 fly apart.
f) 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 guarded or controlled.
g) The arbour size of wheels, flanges,
backing pads or any other accessory
must properly fit the spindle of the
power tool. Accessories 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.
h) Do not use a damaged accessory.
Before each use inspect the accessory
such as abrasive wheels for chips and
cracks, backing pads for cracks, tear or
excess wear, wire brushes for loose or
cracked wires. If the 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.
i ) Wear personal protective equipment
4. Depending on application, use face
shield, safety goggles or safety glasses.
As appropriate, 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 hearing loss.
j ) Keep bystanders a safe distance away
from work area. Anyone entering the
work area must wear personal
protective equipment. Fragments of the
workpiece or of a broken accessory
may fly away and cause injury beyond
the immediate area of operation.
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 clothing, pulling the
accessory into your body.
n) 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.
o) Do not operate the power tool near
flammable materials. Sparks could
ignite these materials.
p) Do not use accessories that require
liquid coolants. Using water or other
liquid coolants may result in
electrocution or shock.
