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, cement, and other masonry products.

– Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.

• Your risk from these exposures varies, depending upon how often you do this type of work.

To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:

– Work in a well-ventilated area.

– Work with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to

lter 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 or eyes or to lie on the skin may promote

absorption of harmful chemicals.

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, re 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.

Work Area Safety

Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of

ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or

fumes.

Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause

you to lose control.

Electrical Safety

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. Unmodied plugs and matching

outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

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.

Do not 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 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.

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.

If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit

interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of an GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

Personal Safety

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.

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.

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 nger on the switch or energising power tools that have the

switch on invites accidents.

4

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.

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better

control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing

away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving

parts.

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.

Power Tool Use And Care

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting

edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

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.

Battery Tool Use And Care

Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable

for one type of battery pack may create a risk of re when used with another battery pack.

Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery

packs may create a risk of injury and re.

When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips,

coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection

from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a

re.

Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If

contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek

medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

Service

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 WARNINGS FOR ANGLE GRINDER

Safety Warnings Common For Grinding:

This power tool is intended to function as a grinder. 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, re and/or serious injury.

Operations such as sanding, wire brushing, polishing or cutting-off are 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.

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.

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 y apart.

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.

Threaded mounting of accessories must match the grinder spindle thread. For

accessories mounted by flange, 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.

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.

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 ying debris generated by various operations. The

dust mask or respirator must be capable of ltrating particles generated by your operation.

Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may cause hearing loss.

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 y away and cause injury beyond immediate area of operation.

Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, when performing an operation

where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will also make

exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.

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.

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.

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.

Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials. Sparks could ignite these

materials.

Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants

may result in electrocution or shock.

Further Safety Instructions For All Operations

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.

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 reactions

or kickback forces, if proper precautions are taken.

Never place your hand near the rotating accessory. Accessory may kickback over your

hand.

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.

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.

Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or toothed saw blade. Such blades create

frequent kickback and loss of control.

Safety Warnings Specific for Grinding:

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.

The grinding surface of centre depressed wheels must be mounted below the plane of

the guard lip. An improperly mounted wheel that projects through the plane of the guard lip

cannot be adequately protected.

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 the operator from broken wheel fragments, accidental contact with wheel and sparks

that could ignite clothing.

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.

Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are of correct size and shape for your

selected wheel. Proper wheel anges support the wheel thus reducing the possibility of wheel

breakage. Flanges for cut-off wheels may be different from grinding wheel anges.

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.

Grinding Operations

Selecting Grinding Wheels

WARNING Before using a grinding wheel, be certain that its maximum safe

operating speed is not exceeded by the nameplate speed of the

grinder. Do not exceed the recommended wheel diameter.

Disc Grinding Wheels

Grinding wheels should be carefully selected in order to use the grinder most efciently.

Wheels vary in type of abrasive, bond, hardness, grit size and structure. The correct type of

wheel to use is determined by the job. Use disc grinding wheels for fast grinding of structural

steel, heavy weld beads, steel casting, stainless steel, and other ferrous metals.

Grinding Tips

Efcient grinding is achieved by controlling the

pressure and keeping the angle between wheel

and the workpiece at 10° to 15° (Fig. 9).

If the wheel is at, the tool is difcult to control.

If the angle is too steep, the pressure is

concentrated on a small area causing burning

to the work surface.

WARNING 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 and injury.

WARNING Excessive or sudden

pressure on the wheel will

slow the grinding action and put dangerous stresses on the wheel.

NOTICE: When grinding with a new wheel, be certain to always grind while pulling tool

backwards until wheel becomes rounded on its edge. New wheels have sharp corners that

tend to “bite” or cut into work piece when pushing them forward.
