Die grinder safety warnings

Safety Warnings Common for Grinding Operation:

1. This power tool is intended to function as a
grinder. Read all safety warnings, instructions,

illustrations and specications provided with

this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions

listed below may result in electric shock, re and/

-1

or serious injury.

2. 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.

3. Do not use accessories which are not speci-
cally designed and recommended by the tool
manufacturer. Just because the accessory can

be attached to your power tool, it does not assure

safe operation.

4. 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.

5. 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 controlled.

6. The arbour size of accessories must properly

t the collet of the power tool. 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.

7. Mandrel mounted accessories must be fully
inserted into the collet or chuck. If the mandrel

is insufciently held and/or the overhang of the
wheel is too long, the mounted accessory may
become loose and be ejected at high velocity.

8. Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each
use inspect the accessory such as abrasive

wheels for chips and cracks. 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.

9. Wear personal protective equipment.
Depending on application, use face shield,
safety goggles or safety glasses. As appro-

priate, 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.

10. 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.

11. 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 could give the operator an

electric shock.

4 ENGLISH

12. Always hold the tool rmly in your hand(s)

during the start-up. The reaction torque of the

motor, as it accelerates to full speed, can cause
the tool to twist.

13. Use clamps to support workpiece whenever

practical. Never hold a small workpiece in

one hand and the tool in the other hand while
in use. Clamping a small workpiece allows you

to use your hand(s) to control the tool. Round
material such as dowel rods, pipes or tubing have
a tendency to roll while being cut, and may cause
the bit to bind or jump toward you.

14. 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.

15. Never lay the power tool down until the acces-
sory has come to a complete stop. The spinning
accessory may grab the surface and pull the

power tool out of your control.

16. After changing the bits or making any adjust-

ments, make sure the collet nut, chuck or any

other adjustment devices are securely tight­ened. Loose adjustment devices can unexpect-

edly shift, causing loss of control, loose rotating
components will be violently thrown.

17. 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.

18. 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.

19. Do not operate the power tool near ammable

materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.

20. 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 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.

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.

1. Maintain a rm grip on the power tool and

position your body and arm to allow you to

resist kickback forces. The operator can control
kickback forces, if proper precautions are taken.

2. 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.

3. Do not attach a toothed saw blade. Such blades

create frequent kickback and loss of control.

4. Always feed the bit into the material in the
same direction as the cutting edge is exiting
from the material (which is the same direction
as the chips are thrown). Feeding the tool in the

wrong direction causes the cutting edge of the
bit to climb out of the work and pull the tool in the

direction of this feed.

Safety Warnings Specic for Grinding:

1. Use only wheel types that are recommended
for your power tool and only for recommended
applications.

2. Do not position your hand in line with and
behind the rotating wheel. When the wheel, at

the point of operation, is moving away from your
hand, the possible kickback may propel the spin­ning wheel and the power tool directly at you.

Additional Safety Warnings:

1. The tool is intended for use with bonded abra­sive wheel points (grinding stones) perma­nently mounted on plain, unthreaded mandrel

(shanks).

2. Make sure the wheel is not contacting the
workpiece before the switch is turned on.

3. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece,

let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or
wobbling that could indicate poor installation
or a poorly balanced wheel.

4. Use the specied surface of the wheel to per-
form the grinding.

5. Watch out for ying sparks. Hold the tool so
that sparks y away from you and other per­sons or ammable materials.

6. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only when hand-held.

7. Do not touch the workpiece immediately after

operation; it may be extremely hot and could

burn your skin.

8. Observe the instructions of the manufacturer
for correct mounting and use of wheels.
Handle and store wheels with care.

9. Check that the workpiece is properly

supported.

10. If working place is extremely hot and humid,

or badly polluted by conductive dust, use a
short-circuit breaker (30 mA) to assure opera­tor safety.

11. Do not use the tool on any materials contain­ing asbestos.

12. Always be sure you have a rm footing. Be

sure no one is below when using the tool in
high locations.
