General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions.

Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in

electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS

FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated

(corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1) WORK AREA SAFETY

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas

invite accidents.

b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,

such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or

dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or

fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a

power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify

the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with

earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and

matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces

such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There

is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or

grounded.

c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.

Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric

shock.

d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying,

pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away

from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or

entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension

cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for

outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable,

use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected

supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

English

3) PERSONAL SAFETY

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common

sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power

tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs,

alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while

operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye

protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-

skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for

appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in

the off position before connecting to power source and/

or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying

power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing power

tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the

power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating

part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at

all times. This enables better control of the power tool in

unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.

Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving

parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in

moving parts.

g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust

extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are

connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can

reduce dust-related hazards.

4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool

for your application. The correct power tool will do the job

better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it

on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the

switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the

battery pack from the power tool before making any

adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power

tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of

starting the power tool accidentally.

d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and

do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or

these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools

are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

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 different 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

ALL OPERATIONS

Safety Warnings Common for Grinding,

Sanding, Wire Brushing, Polishing or

Abrasive, Cutting-Off Operations

a) This power tool is intended to function as a grinder,

sander, wire brush or 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) Cutting-off is 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 sized accessories cannot be adequately guarded or

controlled.

f) Threaded mounting of accessories must match the

grinder spindle thread. For accessories mounted by

flanges, the arbor hole of the accessory must fit the

locating diameter of the flange. 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.

g) Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use

inspect the accessory such as abrasive wheels for chips

and cracks, backing pad for cracks, tear or excess wear,

wire brush for loose or cracked wires. If 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. Depending on

application, use face shield, safety goggles or safety

glasses. As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing

protectors, gloves and workshop 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.

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 the 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.

English

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.

q) Do not use Type 11 (flaring cup) wheels on this tool. Using

inappropriate accessories can result in injury.

r) Always use side handle. Tighten the handle securely. The

side handle should always be used to maintain control of the

tool at all times.

s) When starting the tool with a new or replacement wheel,

or a new or replacement wire brush installed, hold the

tool in a well protected area and let it run for one minute.

If the wheel has an undetected crack or flaw, it should burst in

less than one minute. If the wire brush has loose wires, they will

be detected. Never start the tool with a person in line with the

wheel. This includes the operator.

t) Use of accessories not specified in this manual is not

recommended and may be hazardous. Use of power

boosters that would cause the tool to be driven at speeds

greater than its rated speed constitutes misuse.

u) Use clamps or another practical way to secure and

support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the

work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may

lead to loss of control.

v) Avoid bouncing the wheel or giving it rough treatment.

If this occurs, stop the tool and inspect the wheel for cracks or

flaws.

w) Always handle and store wheels in a careful manner.

x) Do not operate this tool for long periods of time. Vibration

caused by the operating action of this tool may cause

permanent injury to fingers, hands, and arms. Use gloves to

provide extra cushion, take frequent rest periods, and limit daily

time of use.

Causes and Operator Prevention

of Kickback

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged rotating

wheel, backing pad, brush or any other accessory. Pinching or

snagging causes rapid stalling of the rotating accessory which

in turn causes the uncontrolled power tool to be forced in the

direction opposite of the accessory’s rotation at the point of the

binding.

For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or pinched by the

workpiece, the edge of the wheel that is entering into the pinch

point can dig into the surface of the material causing the wheel

to climb out or kick out. The wheel may either jump toward or

away from the operator, depending on direction of the wheel’s

movement at the point of pinching. Abrasive wheels may also

break under these conditions.

Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect operating

procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper

precautions as given below:

a) Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position your

body and arm to allow you to resist kickback forces.

English

Always use auxiliary handle, if provided, for maximum

control over kickback or torque reaction during start up.

The operator can control torque reaction or kickback forces, if

proper precautions are taken.

b) Never place your hand near the rotating accessory.

Accessory may kickback over your hand.

c) Do not position your body in the area where power tool

will move if kickback occurs. Kickback will propel the tool

in direction opposite to the wheel’s movement at the point of

snagging.

d) Use special care when working corners, sharp edges etc.

Avoid bouncing and snagging the accessory. Corners,

sharp edges or bouncing have a tendency to snag the rotating

accessory and cause loss of control or kickback.

e) Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or toothed

saw blade. Such blades create frequent kickback and loss of

control.

Safety Warnings Speciﬁ c for Grinding

Operations

a) Use only wheel types that are recommended for your

power tool and the specific guard designed for the

selected wheel. Wheels for which the power tool was not

designed cannot be adequately guarded and are unsafe.

b) The grinding surface of center depressed wheels must

be mounted below the plane of the guard lip. An

improperly mounted whe`el that projects through the plane of

the guard lip cannot be adequately protected.

c) The guard must be securely attached to the power tool

and positioned for maximum safety, so the least amount

of wheel is exposed towards the operator. The guard helps

to protect operator from broken wheel fragments, accidental

contact with wheel and sparks that could ignite clothing.

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

size and shape for your selected wheel. Proper wheel

flanges support the wheel thus reducing the possibility of wheel

breakage. Flanges for cut-off wheels may be different from

grinding wheel flanges.

f) Do not use worn down wheels from larger power tools.

Wheel intended for larger power tool is not suitable for the

higher speed of a smaller tool and may burst.

Safety Warnings Speciﬁ c for Sanding

Operations

a) Do not use excessively oversized sanding disc paper.

Follow manufacturers recommendations, when selecting

sanding paper. Larger sanding paper extending beyond the

sanding pad presents a laceration hazard and may cause

snagging, tearing of the disc or kickback.

Safety Warnings Speciﬁ c for Polishing

Operations

a) 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.

Safety Warnings Speciﬁ c for Wire

Brushing Operations

a) Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the brush even

during ordinary operation. Do not overstress the wires

English

by applying excessive load to the brush. The wire bristles

can easily penetrate light clothing and/or skin.

b) If the use of a guard is recommended for wire brushing,

do not allow any interference of the wire wheel or brush

with the guard. Wire wheel or brush may expand in diameter

due to work and centrifugal forces.

c) Safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields and a

full face shield compliant with ANSI Z87.1 MUST be worn

by the operator and others that are within 50' (15.2 m) of

the use of this product.

Additional Safety Information

• Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided.

Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

• An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG

or American Wire Gauge) for safety. The smaller the gauge

number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable, that is

16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. An undersized cord

will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and

overheating. When using more than one extension to make up the

total length, be sure each individual extension contains at least the

minimum wire size. The following table shows the correct size to

use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in

doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number,

the heavier the cord.

NOT safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is

dusty. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:

• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),

• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,

• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.

WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,

grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals

known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other

reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• lead from lead-based paints,

• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry

products, and

• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you

do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:

English

work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety

equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to

filter out microscopic particles.

• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding,

sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities.

Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with

soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or

lay on the skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals.

WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/or disperse dust,

which may cause serious and permanent respiratory or other

injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection

appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face

and body.

WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing protection

that conforms to ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) during use. Under some

conditions and duration of use, noise from this product may

contribute to hearing loss.

WARNING: When not in use, place grinder on a stable

surface where it will not move inadvertantly, roll or cause a

tripping or falling hazard. Serious personal injury may result.

WARNING: The grinding wheel or accessory may loosen

during coast-down of the tool when shut off. If grinding wheel or

accessory loosens, it may dismount from the machine and may cause

serious personal injury.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of personal injury, use extra care

when working into a corner or edge because a sudden, sharp

movement of the tool may be experienced when the wheel or other

accessory contacts a secondary surface or a surface edge.

Grinding

Using a depressed center Type 27 wheel,

10˚ - 30°

FIG. 3

hold the tool at an angle of approximately

10˚–30° to the work for grinding. Most

Type 27 wheels are not designed for

cutting operations.

Edge Cutting

WARNING: Edge grinding and cutting can be performed only with

Type 27 wheels that are designed and specified for this purpose.

Protect yourself during edge cutting by directing the open side of the

guard toward a surface.

CAUTION: Wheels used for edge grinding and cutting may break

or kick back if they bend or twist while the tool is being used. In all

edge grinding/cutting operations, the open side of the guard must be

positioned away from the operator. Edge grinding/cutting with a

Type27 wheel must be limited to shallow cutting and notching—less

than 1/2" (13mm) in depth when the wheel is new. Reduce the depth

of cutting/notching equal to the reduction of the wheel radius as it

wears down. Refer to pages 10 and 11 for more information. Edge

grinding/cutting with a Type 1 wheel requires usage of a Type 1 guard.

1. Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool to the

work surface.

2. Apply minimum pressure to the work surface, allowing the tool

to operate at high speed. Grinding rate is greatest when the tool

operates at high speed.

3. Position yourself so that the open-underside of the wheel is facing

away from you.

4. Once a cut is begun and a notch is

FIG. 4

established in the workpiece, do not

change the angle of the cut. Changing

the angle will cause the wheel to bend

and may cause wheel breakage.

5. Remove the tool from the work surface

before turning the tool off. Allow the tool

to stop rotating before laying it down.

Edge grinding and cutting wheels should

contact the work surface only at the edge

of the wheel, not on the top or bottom of

the wheel. Side pressure on the wheel could

lead to breakage of the wheel.

WARNING: Do not use edge grinding/cutting wheels for surface

grinding applications if the wheel label has forbidden such use

because these wheels are not designed for side pressures

encountered with surface grinding. Wheel breakage and serious

personal injury may result.

Precautions To Take When

Removing Paint

1. Sanding or wire brushing lead based paint is NOT RECOMMENDED

due to the difficulty of controlling the contaminated dust. The

greatest danger of lead poisoning is to children and pregnant

women.

2. Since it is difficult to identify whether or not a paint contains

lead without a chemical analysis, we recommend the following

precautions when sanding any paint:

PERSONAL SAFETY

1. No children or pregnant women should enter the work area

where the paint sanding is being done until all clean up is

completed.

2. 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 proper

NIOSH-approved mask.

3. NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should be done in the work

area to prevent ingesting contaminated paint particles. Workers

should wash and clean up BEFORE eating, drinking or smoking.

Articles of food, drink, or smoking should not be left in the work

area where dust would settle on them.

ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY

1. Paint should be removed in such a manner as to minimize the

amount of dust generated.

2. Areas where paint removal is occurring should be sealed with

plastic sheeting of 4 mils thickness.

3. Sanding should be done in a manner to reduce tracking of paint

dust outside the work area.

CLEANING AND DISPOSAL

1. All surfaces in the work area should be vacuumed and thoroughly

cleaned daily for the duration of the sanding project. Vacuum filter

bags should be changed frequently.

2. Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up and disposed of

along with any dust chips or other removal debris. They should

be placed in sealed refuse receptacles and disposed of through

regular trash pick-up procedures.

During clean up, children and pregnant women should be kept

away from the immediate work area.

3. All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by children should

be washed thoroughly before being used again.

Fitting and Removing the Guard (DW831)

(Fig. 6, 7)

CAUTION: Unplug the tool before mounting or removing the

guard. Guards must be used with all grinding wheels and sanding

flap discs, wire brushes and wire wheels. The tool may be used

without the guard only when sand ing with conventional sanding

discs. Before reconnecting the tool, depress and release the rear part

of the switch to ensure that the tool is off.

FITTING GUARD

CAUTION: Do not operate grinder with a loose guard or the

guard latch in the open position.

1. Open the guard latch (F) and align the arrow on the guard with the

arrow on the gear case.

English

2. Push the guard down until the guard lugs engage and rotate freely

in the groove on the gear case.

3. With the guard latch open, rotate the guard into the working

position providing maximum protection to the user (Fig. 7).

4. Close the guard latch to secure guard on gear case (Fig. 7).

NOTE: The guard is pre-adjusted to the diameter of the spindle hub at

the factory. If the guard needs further adjustment after a period of use,

perform the following ad just ment. With the guard latch in the closed

position tighten or loos en the adjustment screw (G).

REMOVING GUARD

1. Open the guard latch (F) and align the arrow on the guard with the

arrow on the gear case.

Avertissements de sécurité généraux

pour les outils électriques

AVERTISSEMENT ! Lire tous les avertissements de

sécurité et toutes les directives. Le non-respect des

avertissements et des directives pourrait se solder par un

choc électrique, un incendie et/ou une blessure grave.

CONSERVER TOUS LES AVERTISSEMENTS

ET TOUTES LES DIRECTIVES POUR UN

USAGE ULTÉRIEUR

Le terme « outil électrique » cité dans les avertissements se rapporte

à votre outil électrique à alimentation sur secteur (avec fil) ou par piles

(sans fil).

1) SÉCURITÉ DU LIEU DE TRAVAIL

a) Tenir l’aire de travail propre et bien éclairée. Les lieux

encombrés ou sombres sont propices aux accidents.

b) Ne pas faire fonctionner d’outils électriques dans un

milieu déflagrant, tel qu’en présence de liquides, de

gaz ou de poussières inflammables. Les outils électriques

produisent des étincelles qui pourraient enflammer la poussière

ou les vapeurs.

c) Éloigner les enfants et les personnes à proximité

pendant l’utilisation d’un outil électrique. Une distraction

pourrait en faire perdre la maîtrise à l’utilisateur.

2) SÉCURITÉ EN MATIÈRE D’ÉLECTRICITÉ

a) Les fiches des outils électriques doivent correspondre

à la prise. Ne jamais modifier la fiche d’aucune façon.

Ne jamais utiliser de fiche d’adaptation avec un outil

électrique mis à la terre. Le risque de choc électrique sera

réduit par l’utilisation de fiches non modifiées correspondant à

la prise.

Français

b) Éviter tout contact physique avec des surfaces mises

à la terre comme des tuyaux, des radiateurs, des

cuisinières et des réfrigérateurs. Le risque de choc

électrique est plus élevé si votre corps est mis à la terre.

c) Ne pas exposer les outils électriques à la pluie ou à

l’humidité. La pénétration de l’eau dans un outil électrique

augmente le risque de choc électrique.

d) Ne pas utiliser le cordon de façon abusive. Ne jamais

utiliser le cordon pour transporter, tirer ou débrancher

un outil électrique. Tenir le cordon éloigné de la chaleur,

de l’huile, des bords tranchants et des pièces mobiles.

Les cordons endommagés ou enchevêtrés augmentent les

risques de choc électrique.

e) Pour l’utilisation d’un outil électrique à l’extérieur, se

servir d’une rallonge convenant à cette application.

L’utilisation d’une rallonge conçue pour l’extérieur réduira les

risques de choc électrique.

f) S’il est impossible d’éviter l’utilisation d’un outil

électrique dans un endroit humide, brancher l’outil dans

une prise ou sur un circuit d’alimentation dotés d’un

disjoncteur de fuite à la terre (GFCI). L’utilisation de ce type

de disjoncteur réduit les risques de choc électrique.

3) SÉCURITÉ PERSONNELLE

a) Être vigilant, surveiller le travail effectué et faire preuve

de jugement lorsqu’un outil électrique est utilisé. Ne

pas utiliser d’outil électrique en cas de fatigue ou sous

l’influence de drogues, d’alcool ou de médicaments. Un

simple moment d’inattention en utilisant un outil électrique

peut entraîner des blessures corporelles graves.

b) Utiliser des équipements de protection individuelle.

Toujours porter une protection oculaire. L’utilisation

d’équipements de protection comme un masque antipoussière,

des chaussures antidérapantes, un casque de sécurité ou des

protecteurs auditifs lorsque la situation le requiert réduira les

risques de blessures corporelles.

c) Empêcher les démarrages intempestifs. S’assurer que

l’interrupteur se trouve à la position d’arrêt avant de

relier l’outil à une source d’alimentation et/ou d’insérer

un bloc-piles, de ramasser ou de transporter l’outil.

Transporter un outil électrique alors que le doigt repose sur

l’interrupteur ou brancher un outil électrique dont l’interrupteur

est à la position de marche risque de provoquer un accident.

d) Retirer toute clé de réglage ou clé avant de démarrer

l’outil. Une clé ou une clé de réglage attachée à une partie

pivotante de l’outil électrique peut provoquer des blessures

corporelles.

e) Ne pas trop tendre les bras. Conserver son équilibre en

tout temps. Cela permet de mieux maîtriser l’outil électrique

dans les situations imprévues.

f) S’habiller de manière appropriée. Ne pas porter de

vêtements amples ni de bijoux. Garder les cheveux, les

vêtements et les gants à l’écart des pièces mobiles. Les

vêtements amples, les bijoux ou les cheveux longs risquent de

rester coincés dans les pièces mobiles.

g) Si des composants sont fournis pour le raccordement de

dispositifs de dépoussiérage et de ramassage, s’assurer

que ceux-ci sont bien raccordés et utilisés. L’utilisation

d’un dispositif de dépoussiérage peut réduire les dangers

engendrés par les poussières.

4) UTILISATION ET ENTRETIEN D’UN OUTIL ÉLECTRIQUE

a) Ne pas forcer un outil électrique. Utiliser l’outil électrique

approprié à l’application. L’outil électrique approprié

effectuera un meilleur travail, de façon plus sûre et à la vitesse

pour laquelle il a été conçu.
