General Safety Rules – For All Tools

WARNING! Read and understand all instructions.

Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result

in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WORK AREA

• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches

and dark areas invite accidents.

• 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.

• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operat-

ing a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

• Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly

installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and

ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or modify

the plug in any way. Do not use any adaptor plugs. Check

with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether

the outlet is properly grounded. If the tools should electrically

malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance

path to carry electricity away from the user. Applicable only to

Class I (grounded) tools.

• Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug

(one blade is wider than the other.) This plug will fit in a

polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in

the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a

qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not

change the plug in any way. Double insulation

eliminates

the need for the three wire grounded power cord and grounded

power supply system. Applicable only to Class II (double

insulated) tools.

• Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes,

radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk

of electric shock if your body is grounded.

• Don’t expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water

entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the

tools or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep cord away from

heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged

cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric

shock.

• When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor exten-

sion cord marked “W-A” or “W.” These cords are rated for

outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock. When using

an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the

current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a

drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.

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.

PERSONAL SAFETY

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common

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

tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medica-

tion. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may

result in serious personal injury.

• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.

Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away

from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewelry, or long hair can be

caught in moving parts. Air vents often cover moving parts and

should also be avoided.

• Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plug-

ging in. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or plugging

in tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

• Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool

on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of

the tool may result in personal injury.

• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all

times. Proper footing and balance enables better control of the

tool in unexpected situations.

• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust

mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection

must be used for appropriate conditions.

TOOL USE AND CARE

• Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support

the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by

hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of

control.

• Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application.

The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for

which it is designed.

• Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool

that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must

be repaired.

• Disconnect the plug from the power source before making

any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool.

Such preventative safety measures reduce the risk of starting

the tool accidentally.

• Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained

persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

• Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and

clean. Properly maintained tools, with sharp cutting edges are

less likely to bind and are easier to control.

• Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, break-

age of parts, and any other condition that may affect the

tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before

using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.

• Use only accessories that are recommended by the manu-

facturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for

one tool, may become hazardous when used on another tool.

SERVICE

• Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair

personnel. Service or maintenance performed by unqualified

personnel could result in a risk of injury.

• When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts.

Follow instructions in the Maintenance section of this man-

ual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance

instructions may create a risk of electric shock or injury.

Additional Specific Safety Instructions

for Grinders

• Check that the grinding wheel backing flange has a yellow

rubber ring (D) installed, see Figure 1. Replace rubber ring if

missing, damaged or worn. See page 10 for details regarding

proper accessory installation.

WARNING: The grinding wheel or accessory may loosen dur-

ing coast-down of the tool when shut off if rubber ring is miss-

ing or damaged. If grinding wheel or accessory loosens, it may

dismount from the machine and may cause serious personal injury.

English

• Always use proper guard with grinding wheel. A guard pro-

tects operator from broken wheel fragments and wheel contact.

• Accessories must be rated for at least the speed recom-

mended on the tool warning label. Wheels and other acces-

sories running over rated speed can fly apart and cause injury.

Accessory ratings must be above listed minimum wheel speed

as shown on tool nameplate.

• Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing

an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden

wiring or its own cord. Contact with a “live” wire will make

exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.

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

inappropriate accessories can result in injury.

• ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION WHEN USING THIS

TOOL.

• Use of accessories not specified in this manual is not rec-

ommended 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.

• Do not use circular saw blades or any other toothed blades

with this tool. Serious injury may result.

• 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.

• Avoid bouncing the wheel or giving it rough treatment. If this

occurs, stop the tool and inspect the wheel for cracks or flaws.

• Direct sparks away from operator, bystanders or flammable

materials. Sparks may be produced while cutting and/or

grinding. Sparks may cause burns or start fires.

• Always use side handle. Tighten the handle securely. The

side handle should always be used to maintain control of the tool

at all times.

• Never cut into area that may contain electrical wiring or

piping. Serious injury may result.

• Clean out your tool often, especially after heavy use. Dust

and grit containing metal particles often accumulate on interior

surfaces and could create an electric shock hazard.

• 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.

• Direct the Dust Ejection System (DES) away from operator

and coworkers. Serious injury may result (Fig. 1, K).

• The label on your tool may include the following symbols. The

symbols and their definitions are as follows:

V ..........volts A .............amperes

Hz ........hertz W ............watts

min ......minutes

...........alternating current

....direct current

o ............no load speed

.......Class II Construction ...........safety alert symbol

........earthing terminal …/min .....revolutions per minute

Causes and Operator Prevention

of Kickback

• Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or misaligned

wheel, wire brush or flap disc causing an uncontrolled cut-off tool

to lift up and out of the workpiece toward the operator.

• When the wheel is pinched or bound tightly by the workpiece,

the wheel stalls and the motor reaction drives the unit rapidly

back toward or away from the operator.

• 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:

• Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the unit and posi-

tion your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback

English

forces. Kickback forces can be controlled by the operator, if

proper precautions are taken.

• When wheel is binding, or when interrupting a cut for any

reason, release the trigger and hold the unit motionless

in the material until the wheel comes to a complete stop.

Never attempt to remove the unit from the work or pull the

unit backward while the wheel is in motion or kickback

may occur. Investigate and take corrective actions to elimi-

nate the cause of wheel binding.

• When restarting a cut-off tool in the workpiece, check

that the wheel is not engaged into the material. If wheel is

binding, it may walk up or kickback from the workpiece as the

tool is restarted.

• Support large panels to minimize the risk of wheel pinch-

ing and kickback. Large panels tend to sag under their own

weight. Support must be placed under the panel on both

sides, near the line of cut and near the edge of the panel.

WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,

grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chem-

icals known 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 (CCA).

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

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

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

ment, 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 disburse dust,

which may cause serious and permanent respiratory or other injury.

Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection appropri-

ate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and

body.

CAUTION: Use extra care when working into a corner because

a sudden, sharp movement of the grinder may be experienced

when the wheel or other accessory contacts a secondary surface

or a surface edge.

CAUTION: Wear appropriate personal hearing protection

during use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise

from this product may contribute to hearing loss.

FEATURES

E-SWITCH PROTECTION™

The ON/OFF switch has a no-volt release function. In the event of

a power outage or other unexpected shut down, the switch needs

to be cycled (turned off and on) to restart tool.

CLUTCH (D28140, D28144, D28144N)

The torque limiting clutch reduces the maximum reaction torque

transmitted to the operator in case of jamming a cutting disc. This

feature also prevents the gearing and electric motor from stalling.

The torque limiting clutch has been factory set and cannot be

adjusted.

E-CLUTCH™

This unit is equipped with an E-Clutch™ (Electronic Clutch), which

in the event of a high-load or wheel pinch, the unit will shut off to

reduce the reaction torque to the user. The switch needs to be

cycled (turned off and on) to restart the tool.

POWER-OFF™ OVERLOAD PROTECTION

information.

1. Install the stamped steel quick-

change backing flange (G2) (D28140,

D28144, D28144N only) for Type 27

6” wheels or the quick-change backing

flange (G1) for all other non-hubbed

wheels on spindle (D) with the raised

section (pilot) against the wheel. Be

sure the backing flange recess is seated

onto the flats of the spindle by pushing

and twisting the flange before placing

wheel.

2. Place wheel against the backing flange,

centering the wheel on the raised

section (pilot) of the backing flange.

3. While depressing the spindle lock but-

ton, thread the clamp nut (H) on spin-

dle. If the wheel you are installing is

more than 1/8" (3.31mm) thick, place

the threaded clamp nut on the spindle so that the raised sec-

tion (pilot) fits into the center of the wheel. If the wheel you are

installing is 1/8" (3.31mm) thick or less, place the threaded

clamp nut on the spindle so that the raised section (pilot) is

not against the wheel.

4. While depressing the spindle lock button, tighten the clamp nut

with a wrench.

5. To remove the wheel, depress the spindle lock button and

loosen the threaded clamp nut with a wrench.

NOTE: If the wheel spins after the clamp nut is tightened, check the

orientation of the threaded clamp nut. If a thin wheel is installed with

the pilot on the clamp nut against the wheel, it will spin because the

height of the pilot prevents the clamp nut from holding the wheel.

SURFACE GRINDING WITH GRINDING WHEELS

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. Maintain a 20˚ to 30˚ angle between the

20˚-30˚

tool and work surface.

4. Continuously move the tool in a for-

ward and back motion to avoid creating

gouges in the work surface.

5. Remove the tool from work surface before turning tool off.

Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying it down.

EDGE GRINDING WITH GRINDING WHEELS

CAUTION: Wheels used for cutting and edge grinding may break

if they bend or twist while the tool is being used to do cut-off work

or deep grinding. To reduce the risk of serious injury, limit the use

of these wheels with a standard Type 27 guard to shallow cutting

and notching (less than 1/2" in depth). The open side of the guard

must be positioned away from the operator. For deeper cutting with

a Type 1 cut-off wheel, use a closed, Type 1 guard. See the chart

English

on page 7 for more information. Type 1 guards are available at extra

cost from your local dealer or authorized service center.

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

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. Edge grinding wheels are not designed to withstand

side pressures caused by bending.

5. Remove the tool from the work surface before turning the tool

off. Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying it down.

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

grinding applications because these wheels are not designed for

side pressures encountered with surface grinding. Wheel breakage

and injury may result.

SURFACE FINISHING WITH SANDING FLAP DISCS

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

work surface.

2. Apply minimum pressure to work

5˚-10˚

surface, allowing the tool to operate

at high speed. Sanding rate is great-

est when the tool operates at high

speed.

3. Maintain a 5˚ to 10˚ angle between

the tool and work surface.

4. Continuously move the tool in a forward and backward motion

to avoid creating gouges in the work surface.

5. Remove the tool from work surface before turning tool off.

Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying it down.

MOUNTING SANDING BACKING PADS

WARNING: Turn off and unplug the tool before making any

adjustments or removing or installing attachments or acces-

sories. Before reconnecting the tool, turn the switch on and

off as previously described to ensure that the tool is off.

CAUTION: Proper guard must be reinstalled for grinding wheel,

sanding flap disc, wire brush or wire wheel applications after sand-

ing applications are complete.

1. Place or appropriately thread

pad backing (R) on the spindle.

2. Place the sanding disc (S) on the

backing pad.

3. While depressing spindle lock,

thread clamp nut (H) on spindle,

piloting the raised hub on the clamp

nut into the center of san ding disc

and backing pad.

4. Tighten the clamp nut by hand.

Then depress the spindle lock but-

ton while turning the sanding disc until the sanding disc and

clamp nut are snug.

5. To remove the wheel, grasp and turn the backing pad and

sanding pad while depressing the spindle lock button.

USING SANDING BACKING PADS

Choose the proper grit sandpaper for your application. Sandpaper

is available in various grits. Coarse grits yield faster material

removal rates and a rougher finish. Finer grits yield slower mate-

rial removal and a smoother finish.

English

Begin with coarse grit discs for fast, rough material removal.

Move to a medium grit paper and finish with a fine grit disc for

optimal finish.

Coarse 16 - 30 grit

Medium 36 - 80 grit

Fine Finishing 100 - 120 grit

Very Fine Finishing 150 - 180 grit

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

work surface.

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

operate at high speed. Sanding rate is greatest when the tool

operates at high speed.

3. Maintain a 5˚ to 15˚ angle between

5˚-15˚

the tool and work surface. The san-

ding disc should contact approximately

one inch of work surface.

4. Move the tool constantly in a straight

line to prevent burning and swirling

of work surface. Allowing the tool to rest on the work surface

without moving, or moving the tool in a circular motion causes

burning and swirling marks on the work surface.

5. Remove the tool from work surface before turning tool off.

Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying it down.

Mounting and Using Wire Brushes

and Wire Wheels

Wire cup brushes or wire wheels screw directly on the grinder

spindle without the use of flanges. Use only wire brushes or

wheels provided with a 5/8"-11 threaded hub. A Type 27 guard is

required when using wire brushes and wheels.

CAUTION: Wear work gloves when handling wire brushes

and wheels. They can become sharp.

CAUTION: Wheel or brush must not touch guard when mounted

or while in use. Undetectable damage could occur to the accessory,

causing wires to fragment from accessory wheel or cup.

MOUNTING WIRE BRUSHES AND WIRE WHEELS

WARNING: Turn off and unplug the tool before making any

adjustments or removing or installing attachments or acces-

sories. Before reconnecting the tool, turn the switch on and

off as previously described to ensure that the tool is off.

1. Thread the wheel on the spindle by hand.

2. Depress spindle lock button and use a wrench on the hub of

the wire wheel or brush to tighten the wheel.

3. To remove the wheel, reverse the above procedure.

CAUTION: Failure to properly seat the wheel hub before turning

the tool on may result in damage to tool or wheel.

USING WIRE CUP BRUSHES AND WIRE WHEELS

Wire wheels and brushes can be used for removing rust, scale and

paint, and for smoothing irregular surfaces.

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

work surface.

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

operate at high speed. Material removal rate is greatest when

the tool operates at high speed.

3. Maintain a 5˚ to 10˚ angle between the

5˚-10˚

tool and work surface for wire cup

brushes.

4. Maintain contact between the edge of

the wheel and the work surface with

wire wheels.

5. Continuously move the tool in a forward and backward motion

to avoid creating gouges in the work surface. Allowing the tool

to rest on the work surface without moving, or moving the tool

in a circular motion causes burning and swirling marks on the

work surface.

English

6. Remove the tool from the work surface

before turning the tool off. Allow the tool to

stop rotating before setting it down.

CAUTION: Use extra care when working

over an edge, as a sudden sharp movement of

grinder may be experienced.

Mounting and Using Cutting

(Type 1) Wheels

Cutting wheels include diamond wheels and abrasive discs.

Abrasive cutting wheels for metal and concrete use are available.

Diamond blades for concrete cutting can also be used.

NOTE: All grinders that use Type 1 wheels use the quick-change

backing flange (G1).

WARNING: A closed, 2-sided cutting wheel guard is not included

with this tool (D28140, D28144, D28144N ONLY) and is re quired

when using cutting wheels. Fail ure to use proper flange and guard

can re sult in injury resulting from wheel breakage and wheel

contact. See page 7 for more information.

MOUNTING CLOSED (TYPE 1) GUARD

WARNING: Turn off and unplug the tool before making any

adjustments or removing or installing attachments or acces-

sories. Before reconnecting the tool, turn the switch on and

off as previously described to ensure that the tool is off.

1. Open the guard latch (M). Align

the lugs (N) on the guard with the

slots (O) on the gear case.

2. Push the guard down until the

guard lug engages and rotates

freely in the groove on the gear

case hub.

3. Rotate guard (I) into desired working

position. The guard body should be

positioned between the spindle and

the operator to provide maximum

operator protection.

4. Close the guard latch to secure the

guard on the gear case cover. You

should be unable to rotate the guard by

hand when the latch is in closed posi-

tion. If rotation is possible, tighten the

adjusting screw (P) with clamp lever in

the closed position. Do not operate

grinder with a loose guard or clamp

lever in open position.

5. To remove the guard, open the guard latch, rotate the guard so

that the arrows are aligned and pull up on the guard.

NOTE: If, after a period of time, the guard becomes loose, tighten

the adjusting screw (P) with the clamp lever in the closed position.

CAUTION: Do not tighten adjusting screw with clamp lever in

open position. Undetectable damage to guard or mounting hub

may result.

MOUNTING CUTTING WHEELS

WARNING: Turn off and unplug the tool before making any

adjustments or removing or installing attachments or acces-

sories. Before reconnecting the tool, turn the switch on and

off as previously described to ensure that the tool is off.

CAUTION: Matching diameter backing flange and threaded

clamp nut (included with tool) must be used for cutting wheels.

1. Place the quick-change backing flange on spindle with the

raised section (pilot) facing up. The raised section (pilot) on

the backing flange will be against the wheel when the wheel is

installed.

English

2. Place the wheel on the backing flange, centering the wheel on

the raised section (pilot).

3. Install the threaded clamp nut with the raised section (pilot)

facing away from the wheel.

4. Depress the spindle lock button and tighten clamp nut with

a wrench.

5. To remove the wheel, grasp and turn while depressing the

spindle lock button.

USING CUTTING WHEELS

WARNING: Do not use edge grinding/ cut-

ting wheels for surface grinding applications

because these wheels are not designed for side

pressures encountered with surface grinding.

Wheel breakage and injury may result.

1. Allow tool to reach full speed before

touching tool to work surface.

2. Apply minimum pressure to work surface,

allowing tool to operate at high speed.

Cutting rate is greatest when the tool

operates at high speed.

3. Once a cut is begun and a notch is established in the work-

piece, do not change the angle of the cut. Changing the angle

will cause the wheel to bend and may cause wheel breakage.

4. Remove the tool from work surface before turning tool off. Allow

the tool to stop rotating before setting it down.

MAINTENANCE

Cleaning

WARNING: Blowing dust and grit out of motor and switch actuator

using clean, dry compressed air is a necessary regular maintenance

procedure. Dust and grit containing metal particles often accumulate

on interior surfaces and could create an electrical shock or electro-

cution if not frequently cleaned out. It is recommended that a ground

fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) is utilized to further protect the user

from electric shock resulting from the accumulation of conductive

particles. If the tool is deactivated by the GFCI, unplug the tool and

check and clean the tool before resetting the GFCI. ALWAYS

WEAR SAFETY GLASSES when cleaning or using this tool.

CAUTION: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals

for cleaning the non-metallic parts of the tool. Use a clean, dry

cloth only.

Règles de sécurité – Généralités

AVERTISSEMENT : Lire, comprendre et suivre

toutes les directives précisées ci-dessous, y com-

pris les consignes de sécurité, afin d’éviter les risques de

choc électrique, d’incendie ou de blessure grave.

CONSERVER CES DIRECTIVES

AIRE DE TRAVAIL

• L’aire de travail doit être propre et bien éclairée.

Les étab-

lis encombrés et les endroits sombres peuvent entraîner des

accidents.

• Ne pas faire fonctionner des outils électriques dans des

atmosphères explosives, comme en présence de liquides,

de gaz et de poussières inflammables. Les outils électriques

produisent des étincelles qui peuvent enflammer la poussière

ou les vapeurs

• Tenir les enfants, les visiteurs ou toute autre personne à

l’écart lorsqu’on utilise un outil électrique; les distractions

peuvent faire perdre la maîtrise de ce dernier.

MESURES DE SÉCURITÉ – ÉLECTRICITÉ

• Les outils mis à la terre doivent être branchés dans une

prise correctement installée et mise à la terre tel que

l’indiquent les codes et règlements en vigueur. Ne jamais

retirer la broche de mise à la terre ou modifier la prise

en aucune façon. Ne pas utiliser de fiche d’adaptation.

Consulter un électricien qualifié s’il y a un doute en ce qui

concerne la mise à la terre de la prise. En cas de défaillance

électrique ou de bris de l’outil, la mise à la terre procure un che-

min de faible résistance au courant afin de réduire les risques

de choc électrique. Cette protection ne s’applique qu’aux

outils de classe I (mis à la terre).

• Les outils à double isolation sont munis d’une fiche polari-

sée (c’est-à-dire que l’une des lames est plus large que

l’autre), laquelle ne peut être raccordée qu’à une prise

polarisée et ce, dans un seul sens; on doit l’inverser si on

est incapable de l’enfoncer complètement. Si la fiche ne

s’adapte toujours pas, on doit faire appel à un électricien

qualifié pour qu’il installe la prise appropriée. On ne doit

jamais modifier la fiche. La double isolation

élimine

le besoin d’installer un cordon d’alimentation trifilaire et un

système d’alimentation électrique pourvus d’une mise à la terre;

seuls les outils de classe II (à double isolation) sont munis

d’une telle protection.

• Éviter tout contact entre le corps et les éléments mis à

la terre, comme les tuyaux, les radiateurs, les cuisinières

et les réfrigérateurs, afin de réduire les risques de choc

électrique.

• Ne pas utiliser l’outil électrique dans des endroits mouillés,

ni l’exposer à la pluie; l’infiltration d’eau à l’intérieur de l’outil

augmente les risques de choc électrique.

• Ne pas utiliser le cordon de manière abusive; on ne doit pas

transporter l’outil en le tenant par le cordon, ou utiliser ce

dernier pour le débrancher. On doit tenir le cordon à l’écart

des sources de chaleur, de l’huile, des bords tranchants

ou des pièces mobiles. Remplacer immédiatement les

cordons endommagés, car ces derniers augmentent les ris-

ques de choc électrique.

• Lorsqu’on utilise un outil électrique à l’extérieur, on ne doit

utiliser que des rallonges conçues pour cet usage, comme

celles de type « W-A » ou « W », afin de réduire les risques

de choc électrique. S’assurer que la rallonge est en mesure de

porter le courant nécessaire à l’outil. Une rallonge de calibre

inférieur entraînera une chute de tension se traduisant par une

perte de puissance et une surchauffe. Le tableau ci-dessous

Français

illustre les calibres que l’on doit utiliser selon la longueur de la

rallonge et l’intensité nominale indiquée sur la plaque signalé-

tique. En cas de doute, utiliser le calibre suivant. Plus le calibre

est petit, plus la rallonge peut porter du courant.

SÉCURITÉ PERSONNELLE

• Rester vigilant en tout temps et faire preuve de jugement

lorsqu’on utilise un outil électrique. Ne pas utiliser l’outil

lorsqu’on est fatigué ou sous l’influence de drogues,

d’alcool ou de médicaments, car un moment d’inattention

pourrait entraîner des blessures graves.

• Porter des vêtements appropriés. Ne pas porter des

vêtements amples ou des bijoux. Couvrir ou attacher les

cheveux longs. Garder les cheveux, les vêtements, les

bijoux et les gants éloignés des pièces mobiles,

car ceux-ci

peuvent s’y coincer. Se tenir éloigné des évents puisque ces

derniers pourraient camoufler des pièces mobiles.

• Éviter les démarrages accidentels; s’assurer que

l’interrupteur est en position d’arrêt avant de brancher

l’outil. Ne pas transporter l’outil en laissant le doigt sur

l’interrupteur ni le brancher lorsque l’interrupteur est en position

de marche, car cela pourrait causer un accident.

• Retirer les clés de réglage avant de démarrer l’outil. Une clé

laissée sur une pièce rotative pourrait entraîner des blessures.

• Ne pas trop étendre les bras. Les pieds doivent rester

ancrés fermement au sol afin de maintenir son équilibre

en tout temps et de mieux maîtriser l’outil dans des situations

imprévues.

• Utiliser le matériel de sécurité approprié; toujours porter

des lunettes de protection. Porter un masque anti-poussières,

des chaussures antidérapantes, un casque de sécurité ou des

protecteurs auditifs lorsque la situation le requiert.

UTILISATION ET ENTRETIEN DE L’OUTIL

• Fixer et soutenir la pièce sur une plate-forme stable au

moyen d’une bride de serrage ou de tout autre dispositif

semblable. La pièce est instable lorsqu’on la retient manuel-

lement ou qu’on l’appuie contre le corps, ce qui pourrait faire

perdre la maîtrise de l’outil.

• Ne pas forcer l’outil ni l’utiliser pour des travaux autres

que ceux pour lesquels il a été conçu. Pour obtenir de meil-

leurs résultats et prévenir les risques de blessure, laisser l’outil

couper à la vitesse pour laquelle il a été conçu.

• Ne pas utiliser l’outil lorsque l’interrupteur marche-arrêt

ne fonctionne pas. Tout outil qui ne peut être commandé au

moyen de l’interrupteur est dangereux et doit être réparé.

• Débrancher l’outil de la source d’alimentation électrique

avant d’effectuer un réglage, de changer les accessoires

ou de ranger l’outil; ces mesures de sécurité préventives

réduisent les risques de démarrage accidentel.

• Lorsqu’on n’utilise pas l’outil, le ranger hors de la portée

des enfants ou des personnes non qualifiées. Les outils sont

dangereux entre les mains de personnes inexpérimentées.

• Bien entretenir l’outil; s’assurer qu’il est toujours bien

propre et aiguisé. Les outils bien entretenus et dont les bords

sont bien tranchants sont moins susceptibles de rester coincés

et sont plus faciles à maîtriser.

• Vérifier les pièces mobiles afin de s’assurer qu’elles sont

bien alignées et qu’elles ne restent pas coincées. Vérifier

Français

également les pièces afin de s’assurer qu’il n’y a aucun

bris ni aucune autre condition susceptible de nuire au bon

fonctionnement de l’outil. Faire réparer l’outil si ce dernier

est endommagé avant de s’en servir à nouveau,

car les

accidents sont souvent causés par des outils mal entretenus.

• N’utiliser que les accessoires recommandés par le fabricant

pour le modèle concerné. Un accessoire destiné à un outil

particulier peut devenir dangereux lorsqu’il est utilisé avec un

autre.

ENTRETIEN

• L’outil doit être entretenu par le personnel qualifié seule-

ment; toute maintenance effectuée par une personne non

qualifiée pourrait entraîner des risques de blessure.

• Lors de l’entretien, n’utiliser que des pièces de rechange

identiques et suivre les directives précisées à la section

« Entretien » du présent guide

afin de prévenir les risques de

choc électrique ou de blessure.

Consignes de sécurité spécifiques

supplémentaires pour les meuleuses

• S’assurer que la bride tournante de la meule est dotée

d’un anneau en caoutchouc jaune (D), consulter la figure 1.

Remplacer la rondelle de caoutchouc si elle est manquante,

endommagée ou usée. Se reporter à la page 29 pour obtenir de

l’information détaillée sur l’installation approprié d’accessoires.

AVERTISSEMENT : la meule ou l’accessoire peut se

desserrer durant le ralentissement de l’outil mis à l’arrêt si la

rondelle de caoutchouc est manquante ou endommagée. Si la

meule ou l’accessoire se desserre, l’un ou l’autre peut sortir de la

machine et causer des blessures graves.

• Toujours utiliser un capot protecteur adéquat avec la

meule. Un capot protège l’opérateur contre les fragments de

meule projetés et le contact avec la meule.

• Le régime nominal (vitesse) des accessoires doit au

minimum égaler la vitesse recommandée sur l’étiquette

d’avertissement de l’outil. Les meules et autres accessoires

allant plus vite que le régime nominal peuvent être projetés et

provoquer des blessures. Les accessoires employés doivent

être conçus pour des régimes supérieurs au régime minimum

indiqué sur la plaque signalétique de l’outil.

• Tenir l’outil par sa surface de prise isolée dans une

situation où l’outil de coupe peut entrer en contact

avec un câblage dissimulé ou avec son propre cordon

d’alimentation. Tout contact avec un fil « sous tension »

mettra « sous tension » les pièces métalliques de l’outil et

électrocutera l’opérateur de l’outil.

• Ne jamais utiliser de meules de type 11 (boisseau conique)

sur cet outil. L’utilisation d’accessoire inadéquat peut se solder

par des blessures.

• TOUJOURS PORTER UNE PROTECTION OCULAIRE LORS

DE L’UTILISATION DE L’OUTIL.

• L’utilisation de tout accessoire non précisé dans le présent

mode d’emploi n’est pas recommandé et pourrait s’avérer

dangereux. L’utilisation de survolteurs, qui augmenteraient le

régime de l’outil à un régime supérieur à celui pour lequel il est

conçu, constitue une utilisation erronée.

• Ne jamais utiliser de lames de scie circulaire ou toutes

autres lames dentées avec l’outil. Elles pourraient provoquer

de graves blessures.

• Lors du démarrage de l’outil avec une meule ou une brosse

nouvelle ou de rechange installée, placer l’outil dans une

zone bien protégée et le laisser fonctionner pendant une

minute. Si la meule comporte une fissure ou une fêlure non

détectée, l’accessoire devrait éclater en moins d’une minute. Si

des fils se détachent de la brosse métallique, ils seront égale-

ment détectés. Ne jamais démarrer l’outil lorsque quelqu’un est

aligné avec la meule. Cela inclut l’opérateur.
