Cut-off machine safety warnings
a) The guard provided with the tool must be securely attached to the
power tool and positioned for maximum safety, so the least amount of
wheel is exposed towards the operator. Position yourself and
bystanders away from the plane of the rotating wheel. The guard helps
to protect operator from broken wheel fragments and accidental contact
with wheel.
b) Use only bonded reinforced or diamond cut-off wheels for your
power tool. Just because an accessory can be attached to your power
tool, it does not assure safe operation.
NOTE Use the wording "bonded reinforced" or "diamond" as applicable
depending on the designation of the tool.
c) 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.
d) Wheels must be used only for recommended applications. For
example: do not grind with the side of cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off
wheels are intended for peripheral grinding, side forces applied to these
wheels may cause them to shatter.
e) Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are of correct diameter
for your selected wheel. Proper wheel flanges support the wheel thus
reducing the possibility of wheel breakage.
f) Do not use worn down reinforced wheels from larger power tools.
Wheels intended for a larger power tool are not suitable for the higher
speed of a smaller tool and may burst.
NOTE The above warning does not apply for tools only designated to be
used with diamond wheels.
g) 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.
h) The arbour size of wheels and flanges must properly fit the spindle of
the power tool. Wheels and flanges 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.
i) Do not use damaged wheels. Before each use, inspect the wheels for
chips and cracks. If power tool or wheel is dropped, inspect for damage
