Power Tool Safety Rules
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 by-standers, children, and visitors away while operating a power
tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical Safety
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. Before
plugging in the tool, be certain the outlet voltage supplied is within the voltage
marked on the nameplate. Do not use “AC only” rated tools with a DC power
supply.
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. If operating the power tool in damp locations is unavoidable, a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter must be used to supply the power to
your tool. Electrician's rubber gloves and footwear will further enhance your
personal safety.
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 extension cord
marked “W-A” or “W.” These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the
risk of electric shock. Refer to “Recommended sizes of Extension Cords” in
the Accessory section of this manual.
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 medication. 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
clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts. Keep handles
dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is “OFF” before plugging 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. Operators and bystanders must always wear eye
protection meeting the requirements of ANSI Z87.1. Appropriate respira-
tory protection, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must
be used as conditions warrant.
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 unsta-
ble 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 preventive 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. Any alteration or modification is a misuse and may result in a
dangerous condition.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
and any other condition that may affect the tools operation. If damaged,
have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained tools. Develop a periodic maintenance schedule for your tool.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for
your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool, may become haz-
ardous when used on another tool.
Service
Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Ser-
vice or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk
of injury. For example: internal wires may be misplaced or pinched, safety
guard return springs may be improperly mounted.
When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow
instructions in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unautho-
rized parts or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of
electric shock or injury. Certain cleaning agents such as gasoline, carbon
tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may damage plastic parts.
Angle Grinder Safety Rules
Always use proper guard with grinding wheel. A guard helps protects oper-
ator from broken wheel fragments. When using grinding wheel attachments,
the guard must always be securely attached to the tool and positioned for
maximum safety, so the least amount of wheel is exposed toward the operator.
Accessories must be rated for at least the speed listed on the tool warning label. Wheels and other accessories running over rated speed can fly
apart and cause injury. Grinding wheels or any other accessory must have a
Printed: 07.07.2013 | Doc-Nr: PUB / 5069465 / 000 / 00
maximum safe operating speed greater than the “rated speed” marked on the
tool's nameplate.
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation
where the grinding tools may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Con-
tact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and
shock the operator.
Before using a grinder or installing a new wheel, inspect the grinding
wheel for chips and cracks. Remove bad wheels immediately. Run the
tool at no load for one minute, holding the tool in the direction away from
people. Wheels with flaws will normally break apart during this time.
Carefully handle both the tool and individual grinding wheels to avoid
chipping or cracking. Install a new wheel if tool is dropped while grinding. Do not use a wheel that may be damaged. Fragments from a wheel
that bursts during operation will fly away at great velocity possibly striking you
or bystanders.
Do not use grinding wheel that is larger than the maximum recommended size for your tool, or worn down damaged wheels from larger
grinders. Wheels intended for large angle sander/grinders are not suitable for
the high speed of a small angle sander/grinder, these wheels may easily burst
and the fragments strike you or bystanders.
Depressed hub wheels are not intended for cutting and may shatter.
Depressed hub wheels or type 1 (cutting) wheels are not intended for side
loading and may shatter under overload.
Do not use hubbed spin-on type 27 grinding wheels.
Do not use this tool with “Woodcarving” blade. Such blades create fre-
quent kick-back and loss of control.
Wear proper apparel while using a sander/grinder. Face shield or at least
safety goggles, dust mask, leather gloves and shop apron capable of stopping small wheel or workpiece fragments.
Position the cord clear of the spinning grinding wheel or any other sanding accessory. Do not wrap the cord around your arm or wrist. If you lose
control and have the cord wrapped around your arm or wrist it may entrap you
and cause injury.
Avoid bouncing and snagging the wheel, especially when working corners, sharp edges etc. This can cause loss of control and kick-back.
Regularily clean the tool's air vents by compressed air. Excessive accumu-
lation of powdered metal inside the motor housing may cause electrical failures.
Do not grind or sand near flammable materials. Sparks from the wheel
could ignite these materials.
This tool can be converted to a sander. When grinding is resumed the
proper guard and wheel flanges MUST be reinstalled before proceeding
with grinding. The guard must always be attached to the tool and
positioned for maximum safety, so the least amount of wheel is exposed
from the side the tool is being operated. The grinding wheel guard cannot
be used for most sanding operations or for wire brushing.
When sanding, do not use oversized sanding disc. Larger sanding disc will
extend beyond the sanding pad causing snagging, tearing of the disc or kickback. Extra paper extending beyond the sanding pad can also cause serious
lacerations.
When grinding or sanding any material that may create harmful dust, use
special precautions. A suitable breathing respirator must be worn by all per-
sonal entering the work area. Work area should be sealed by plastic sheeting and
persons not protected should be kept out until work area is thoroughly cleaned.
