e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tool's
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in
accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations diferent
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation
5) SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR HIGH-SPEED
ROTATION TOOLS
1) SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL OPERATIONS
a) This power tool is intended to function as a grinder,
sander, wire brush, polisher, carving or cut-off tool.
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, ire and/or serious injury.
b) 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.
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 ly apart.
d) 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 controlled.
e) The arbour size of wheels, sanding drum or any
other accessory must properly fit the spindle or
collet of the power tool. Accessories that do not match
the mounting hardware of the power tool will run out of
balance, vibrate excessively and may cause loss of
control.
f) Mandrel mounted wheels, sanding drums, cutters or
other accessories must be fully inserted into the
collet or chuck. The "overhang" or the length of the
mandrel from the wheel to the collet must be
minimal. If the mandrel is insuiciently held and/or the
overhang of the wheel is too long, the mounted wheel
may become loose and ejected at high velocity.
g) Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use
inspect the accessory such as abrasive wheels for
chips and cracks, sanding drum 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.
h) 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 lying
debris generated by various operations. The dust mask or
respirator must be capable of iltrating 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 the
workpiece or of a broken accessory may ly away and
cause injury beyond the 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. A cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and
could give the operator an electric shock.
k) Always hold the tool firmly in your hands during the
start-up. The reaction torque of the motor, as it
accelerates to full speed, can cause the tool to twist.
l) Use clamps to support workpiece whenever
practical. Never hold a small workpiece in one hand
and the tool in the other hand while in use. Clamping
a small workpiece allows you to use both hands to control
the tool. Round material such as dowel rods, pipes or
tubing have a tendency to roll while being cut, and may
cause the bit to bind or jump toward you.
m) 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.
n) 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.
o) After changing the bits or making any adjustments,
make sure the collet nut, chuck or any other
adjustment devices are securely tightened. Loose
adjustment devices can unexpectedly shift, causing loss
of control, loose rotating components will be violently
thrown.
p) 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.
q) 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.
r) Do not operate the power tool near flammable
materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.
s) Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants.
Using water or other liquid coolants may result in
electrocution or shock.
