KEY INFORMATION YOU SHOULD KNOW

• USE RIGHT TOOL. Don’t force small tool or attachment to do the job of a heavy-duty tool. Don’t use tool for purposes not intended.

• DRESS PROPERLY. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be caught in moving parts. Rubber gloves and non-skid footwear are recommended when working outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.

• USE SAFETY GLASSES AND OTHER SAFETY EQUIPMENT. Use safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields, complying with applicable safety standards and, when needed, a face shield. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. This applies to all persons in the work area. Also use a hard hat, hearing protection, gloves, safety shoes and dust collection systems when specified or required.

• DON’T ABUSE CORD. Never carry tool by cord or yank it to disconnect from receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.

• SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It’s safer than using your hand and it frees both hands to operate tool.

• DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

• MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect tool cords periodically and if damaged, have repaired by authorized service facility. Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.

• DISCONNECT TOOLS. Unplug the tool when not in use, when moving tool from place to place, before servicing, and when changing accessories (such as blades, bits, cutters) or making adjustments.

• REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before turning it on.

• AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Don’t carry tool with finger on switch. Be sure switch is off when plugging in.

• EXTENSION CORDS. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw.An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.

• OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS. When tool is used outdoors, use only extension cords intended for use outdoors and so marked.

• STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate tool when you are tired or otherwise impaired.

• CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center unless otherwise indicated elsewhere in this instruction manual. Have defective switches replaced by authorized service center. Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on and off.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR GRINDERS

ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE.

• Use only grinding wheels having a maximum operating speed at least high as “No Load RPM” marked on the tool’s nameplate.

• Before using, inspect recommended accessory for cracks or flaws. If such a crack or flaw is evident, discard the accessory. The accessory should also be inspected whenever you think the tool may have been dropped.

• When starting the tool (with a new or replacement wheel installed) hold the tool in a well protected area and let it run for one minute.

• In operation, avoid bouncing the wheel or giving it rough treatment. If this occurs, stop the tool and inspect the wheel.

• Always use guards with depressed center wheels or flaring cup grinding wheels.

• Clean your tool out periodically.

• CAUTION: Some wood contains preservatives such as copper chromium arsenate (CCA) which can be toxic. When sanding these materials extra care should be taken to avoid inhalation and minimize skin contact.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Motor Brushes Master Mechanic uses an advanced brush system which automatically stops the tool when the brushes wear out. This prevents serious damage to the motor. Spindle Lock Pin Operation (Fig. 2) Depress spindle lock pin and rotate the spindle until the lock pin engages to lock the spindle. NOTE: Never depress the spindle lock pin when the tool is running or coasting. Damage to the gear and lock pin will result. Auxiliary Handle (Fig. 2) An auxiliary handle is furnished with your grinder and can be screwed into either side or the top of the gear case. This handle SHOULD BE USED AT ALL TIMES to maintain complete control of the tool. Sanding With Abrasive Discs (Fig. 3) Sanding accessories shown are available at extra cost. TO INSTALL SANDING DISCS: Be sure that the tool is turned off and unplugged. Push the hub of the disc nut through the center of the sanding disc, as far as it will go, and also through the backing disc. Put the assembled discs on the tool spindle and engage the disc nut into the disc nut hub. Thread the assembly clockwise, completely down on the spindle. Engage the lock pin to lock the spindle in place. When using an abrasive disc, hold the tool so that an angle of 10° to 15° exists between the disc and the work, as shown in Figure 4. If only the outer edge of the sanding disc is pressed flat against the work, the sanding action will be irregular and bumpy, and the tool will be difficult to control.

PRECAUTIONS TO TAKE WHEN SANDING PAINT

1. Sanding of lead based paint is NOT RECOMMENDED due to the difficulty

of controlling the contaminated dust. The greatest danger of lead poisoning is to children and pregnant women.

2. Since it is difficult to identify whether or not a paint contains lead without a

chemical analysis, we recommend the following precautions when sanding any paint: PERSONAL SAFETY a. No children or pregnant women should enter the work area where the paint sanding is being done until all clean-up is completed. b. A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all persons entering the work area. The filter should be replaced daily or whenever the wearer has difficulty breathing. NOTE: Only those dust masks suitable for working with lead paint dust and fumes should be used. Ordinary painting masks do not offer this protection. See your local hardware dealer for the N.I.O.S.H. approved proper mask. c. NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should be done in the work area to prevent ingesting contaminated paint particles. Workers should wash and clean up BEFORE eating, drinking or smoking. Articles of food, drink, or smoking should not be left in the work area where dust can settle on them. ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY a. Paint should be removed in such a manner as to minimize the amount of dust generated. b. Areas where paint removal is occurring should be sealed with plastic sheeting of 4 mils thickness. *TV800 / 386239 11/18/03 11:36 AM Page 45 E NGLISH c. Sanding should be done in a manner to reduce tracking of paint dust outside the work area.

CLEANING AND DISPOSAL

a. All surfaces in the work area should be vacuumed and thoroughly cleaned daily for the duration of the sanding project. Vacuum filter bags should be changed frequently. b. Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up and disposed of along with any dust chips or other removal debris. They should be placed in sealed refuse receptacles and disposed of through regular trash pick-up procedures. During clean-up, children and pregnant women should be kept away from the immediate work area. c. All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by children should be washed thoroughly before being used again. Removing Disc TURN OFF AND UNPLUG TOOL. Using a cloth or glove to protect your hand, turn the disc assembly counter- clockwise to remove it from the tool spindle. Hold the spindle in place by engaging the lock pin. Grinding With Depressed Center Wheels (5/8"—11 Spindle) Depressed center wheels may be used for moderate metal removal on flat or contoured surfaces. CAUTION: Never use depressed center wheels without the proper guard. To install depressed center wheels:

1. Be sure tool is disconnected from power supply and switch is in “OFF”

2. Be sure the guard assembly is securely attached to the gear case.

3. Put the backing flange onto the tool spindle as shown in Figure 5.

4. Check rated speed on depressed center wheel. Never use wheel with rated

speed lower than the speed on the nameplate of the tool.

5. Place the depressed center wheel on the tool spindle as shown.

6. Thread the clamp washer on tool spindle as shown. Hold the tool spindle by

engaging the spindle lock pin, and tighten clamp washer with wrench. When using a depressed center wheel, hold the tool so that an angle of approximately 30° exists between the wheel and the work. Wire Cup and Knotted Wire Wheel Brushes.

1. Disconnect tool from power source and make sure switch is "OFF". Rest

grinder on its back with spindle facing up.

2. Ensure that the rated speed of the wire brush is equal to or higher than the

rated speed of the grinder found on the nameplate.

3. Thread brush onto spindle and tighten.

Common applications for knotted wire cup brushes include cleaning welds, angles, corners and removing paint. Usage of the knotted wire wheel brush is the same as the wire cup brush. They can also be used to finish irregular surfaces and corners. MAINTENANCE Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the tool. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid. IMPORTANT: To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and adjustment should be performed by authorized service centers or other qualified service organizations, always using identical replacement parts. Lubrication MASTER MECHANIC tools are properly lubricated at the factory and are ready for use. Cleaning Blowing dust and grit out of the motor housing using compressed air is a necessary regular maintenance procedure. Dust and grit containing particles from metal grinding often accumulate on interior surfaces and could create an electrical shock hazard if not frequently cleaned out. CAUTION: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for cleaning the non- metallic parts of the tool. Use clean, dry rag only. *TV800 / 386239 11/18/03 11:36 AM Page 56 Accessories A full array of accessories for use with your tool are available from your local dealer or authorized service center. CAUTION: The use of any accessory or attachment other than those recommended in this manual may be hazardous.
