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, polisher 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,
fire 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 break
and fly 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 guarded or
controlled.
e) The arbor size of wheels, flanges, backing pads or any
other accessory must properly fit the spindle of the
power tool. Accessories with arbor 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.
f) 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.
g) 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.
h) 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.
i) Hold 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.
j) 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
3
k) 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.
l) 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.
m) 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.
n) Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials.
Sparks could ignite these materials.
o) Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants.
Using water or other liquid coolants may result in electrocution
or shock.
Kickback and Related Warnings
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 power 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.
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 and
Abrasive Cutting-Off 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 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.
English
4
c) 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.
d) 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.
e) 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.
Additional Safety Warnings Specifi c for
Abrasive Cutting-Off Operations
a) Do not “jam” the cut-off wheel or apply excessive
pressure. Do not attempt to make an excessive depth
of cut. Overstressing the wheel increases the loading and
susceptibility to twisting or binding of the wheel in the cut and
the possibility of kickback or wheel breakage.
b) Do not position your body in line with and behind the
rotating wheel. When the wheel, at the point of operation,
is moving away from your body, the possible kickback may
propel the spinning wheel and the power tool directly at you.
c) When wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut for any
reason, switch off the power tool and hold the power
tool motionless until the wheel comes to a complete
stop. Never attempt to remove the cut-off wheel from
the cut while the wheel is in motion otherwise kickback
may occur. Investigate and take corrective action to eliminate
the cause of wheel binding.
d) Do not restart the cutting operation in the workpiece.
Let the wheel reach full speed and carefully reenter the
cut. The wheel may bind, walk up or kickback if the power tool
is restarted in the workpiece.
e) Support panels or any oversized workpiece to minimize
the risk of wheel pinching and kickback. Large workpieces
tend to sag under their own weight. Supports must be placed
under the workpiece near the line of cut and near the edge of
the workpiece on both sides of the wheel.
f) Use extra caution when making a "pocket cut" into
existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding wheel
may cut gas or water pipes, electrical wiring or objects that can
cause kickback.
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.
English

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
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 load and centrifugal forces.
Additional Safety Rules for Grinders
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.
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.
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.
Avoid bouncing the wheel or giving it rough treatment. If this
occurs, stop the tool and inspect the wheel for cracks or flaws.
Always handle and store wheels in a careful manner.
• Never cut into area that may contain electrical wiring or
piping. Serious injury may result.
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.
Do not use Type 11 (flaring cup) wheels on this tool. Using
inappropriate accessories can result in injury.
Always use side handle. Tighten the handle securely. The
side handle should always be used to maintain control of the tool
at all times.
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.

1. Remove backing flange (D) by pulling
away from the tool.
2. Thread the wheel on the spindle (B) by
hand.
3. Depress the spindle lock button and use
a wrench to tighten the hub of the wheel.
4. Reverse the above procedure to remove

NOTICE: Failure to properly seat the wheel
before turning the tool on may result in
damage to the tool or the wheel.
MOUNTING NON-HUBBED WHEELS
(FIG. 10)
Depressed center Type 27 grinding wheels
must be used with included flanges. Refer
to Accessories and Attachments for more
information.
1. Install the backing flange (D) on spindle (B)
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 button, thread the clamp
nut(E) on spindle. If the wheel you are installing is more than 1/8"
(3.17mm) thick, place the threaded clamp nut on the spindle so
that the raised section (pilot) fits into the center of the wheel. If
the wheel you are installing is 1/8" (3.17mm) 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 (FIG. 11)
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˚
FIG. 11
tool and work surface.
4. Continuously move the tool in a forward
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 (FIG. 12)
WARNING: 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 on
pages 9–10 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
FIG. 12
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 (FIG. 13)
1. Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool to the
work surface.
2. Apply minimum pressure to work
5˚–10˚
FIG. 13
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 10˚ angle between the tool and work surface.
4. Continuously move the tool in a forward 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.

FIG. 14
reinstalled for grinding wheel, sanding flap
disc, wire brush or wire wheel applications
after sanding applications are complete.
1. Place or appropriately thread backing
pad (O) on the spindle.
2. Place the sanding disc (P) on the
backing pad.
3. While depressing spindle lock, thread
the clamp nut (E) 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
button 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 (FIG. 15)
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 material removal
and a smoother finish.
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
5˚–15˚
FIG. 15
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 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 CUP BRUSHES AND WIRE WHEELS
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.
NOTICE: 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 (FIG 16, 17)

1. Allow the tool to reach full speed before
5˚–10˚
FIG. 16
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 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
FIG. 17
back 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.
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.
WARNING: A closed, 2-sided cutting wheel guard is not included
with this tool but 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 10 for more information.
MOUNTING CLOSED (TYPE 1) GUARD (FIG. 18 20)
WARNING: If present, the ONE TOUCH™ guard screw, lever and
spring must be removed before attempting to mount the closed

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 (FIG. 21)
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.
1. Allow tool to reach full speed before
FIG. 21
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 workpiece, 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.
