SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES AND SYMBOLS

1. Accessories must be rated for at least the speed recommended on the tool warning

label. Accessories running over rated speed can fly apart and cause injury.

2. Hold tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the 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.

to high intensity noise can cause hearing loss.

operation.

6. NEVER use the polisher in places where the sparks generated by the polisher can cause

explosion, such as where flammable materials or gases are present.

7. NEVER push in the lock lever while the spindle is running.
8. ALWAYS wear eye protection that meets the requirement of the latest revision of ANSI

Standard Z87.1.
