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.

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,suchasinthepresenceofammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. c) Keepchildrenandbystandersawaywhileoperating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY

a) 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. Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. b) Avoidbodycontactwithearthedorgrounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d) Donotabusethecord.Neverusethecordfor 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. e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extensioncordsuitableforoutdooruse. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable,useanearthleakagecircuitbreaker.

Operations for which the power tool was not designed may create a hazard and cause personal injury. c) Donotuseaccessorieswhicharenotspecically designedandrecommendedbythetool manufacturer. Just because the accessory can be attached to your power tool, it does not assure safe operation. d) Theratedspeedoftheaccessorymustbeatleast equal to the maximum speed marked on the power tool. Accessories running faster than their rated speed can y apart. e) The outside diameter and the thickness of your accessorymustbewithinthecapacityratingof your power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories cannot be adequately guarded or controlled. f) Threaded mounting of accessories must match the grinder spindle thread. For accessories mounted byanges,thearbourholeoftheaccessorymust tthelocatingdiameteroftheange. 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. g) Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use inspecttheaccessorysuchasabrasivewheelsfor chipsandcracks,backingpadsforcracks,tear orexcesswear,wirebrushesforlooseorcracked wires. If the power tool or accessory is dropped, inspect for damage or install an undamaged accessory. After inspecting and installing an accessory,positionyourselfandbystandersaway 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. h) Wear personal protective equipment ⑤. Depending on application, use face shield, safety goggles or safety glasses. As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearingprotectors,glovesandshopaproncapable ofstoppingsmallabrasiveorworkpiecefragments. 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.

area. Anyone entering the work area must wear personal protective equipment. Fragments of the workpiece or of a broken accessory may y away and cause injury beyond the immediate area of operation. j) Holdpowertoolbyinsulatedgrippingsurfaces only, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. A cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock. k) 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. l) 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. m) 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. n) 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. o) Donotoperatethepowertoolnearammable materials. Sparks could ignite these materials. p) Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants may result in electrocution or shock.

2) 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. The8 wheel may either jump toward or away from the operator, depending on the 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. a) Maintainarmgriponthepowertoolandposition yourbodyandarmtoallowyoutoresistkickback forces. Always use auxiliary handle, if provided, for maximumcontroloverkickbackortorquereaction during start-up. The operator can control torque reactions or kickback forces, if proper precautions are taken. b) Never place your hand near the rotating accessory. The accessory may kickback over your hand. c) Donotpositionyourbodyintheareawherepower toolwillmoveifkickbackoccurs.Kickback will propel the tool in the direction opposite to the wheel’s movement at the point of snagging. d) Use special care when working corners, sharp edgesetc.Avoidbouncingandsnaggingthe accessory. Corners, sharp edges or bouncing have a tendency to snag the rotating accessory and cause loss of control or kickback. e) Donotattachasawchainwoodcarvingblade ortoothedsawblade.Such blades create frequent kickback and loss of control.

3) SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC FOR SANDING

OPERATIONS a) When sanding, do not use excessively oversized sanding disc paper. Follow the manufacturers’ recommendations when selecting sanding paper. Larger sanding paper extending beyond the sanding pad presents a laceration hazard and may cause snagging, tearing of the disc, or kickback.

4) SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC FOR POLISHING

a) Do not allow any loose portion of the polishing bonnetoritsattachmentstringstospinfreely.Tuck away or trim any loose attachment strings. Loose and spinning attachment strings can entangle your ngers or snag on the workpiece.
