power tool was not designed may

create a hazard and cause personal

injury.

2.

Only persons well acquainted with

these rules of safe operation should

be allowed to use the tool.

Safety glasses and ear

protection must be worn

during operation.

3.

Do not wear loose fitting clothing,

scarves, or neck ties in work area.

Loose clothing may become caught

in moving parts and result in serious

personal injury.

4.

Do not wear jewelry when operating

any tool. Jewelry may become

caught in moving parts and result in

serious personal injury.

5.

Always use attachments designed for

use with this tool. Do not use

damaged or worn attachments.

6.

Never trigger the tool when not

applied to a work object.

Attachments must be securely

attached. Loose attachments can

cause serious injury.

7.

Never point a tool at oneself or any

other person. Serious injury could

occur.

8.

Use steady, even pressure when

using tool. Do not force. Too much

pressure can cause grinding wheel to

break or overheat.

9.

Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight

and ensure equipment is in safe

working condition.

10.

Do not put hands near or under

moving parts.

11.

Always use proper guard with

grinding wheel. The guard protects

operator from broken wheel

fragements.

12.

Accessories must be rated for at least

11,000 RPM. Wheels and other

accessories running over rated speed

can fly apart and cause injury.

13.

Grinding wheel and guard must be

securely attached as described in this

operating manual before connecting

the grinder to a power source.

14.

Grinding wheels must be stored in a

dry place.

15.

Before attaching the grinding wheel,

inspect it for visible defects. If

cracked, chipped, or warped, do not

install it.

16.

Do not overtighten the clamp nut on

the grinding wheel. Excessive

tightening can cause the wheel to

crack during operation.

17.

Make sure that the guard is in good

condition and securely installed

before operating grinder.

18.

Do not clamp the grinder in a vise or

use as a fixed grinder.

19.

Never turn on the grinder with the

grinding wheel or any rotating parts

touching the workpiece.

20.

Safety W

a

rnings

Read all

safety

warnings and all instructions. Failure

to follow the warnings and instruc-

tions 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 (cord-

less) 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 flammable

liquids, gases or dust. Power tools cre-

ate 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.

Do not

operate

the power tool near flammable

materials. Sparks could ignite these

materials.

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. Unmodified

plugs and matching outlets will reduce

risk of electric shock.

Avoid

body

contact with earthed or grounded sur-

faces, 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 carry-

ing, 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

operat-

ing 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 operat-

ing a

power tool in a damp location is

unavoidable, use a residual current

device (GFCI) protected supply. Use of a

GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

1.

Do not use accessories that require

liquid coolants. Using water or

other liquid coolants may result in

electrocution or shock.

2.

Do not operate tool with damaged

cord or plug.

Have a damaged or worn power

cord and/or strain relief replaced

immediately.

Do not attempt to repair power

cord.

3.

Make sure cord is located so that it

will not be stepped on, tripped

over, or otherwise subjected to

damage or stress.

4.

Do not use an extension cord unless

absolutely necessary. Use of

improper extension cord could

result in a risk of fire and electric

shock. If an extension cord must be

used, make sure:
