CAUTION!
The following are important notes for products, operation, and maintenance applicable to
this High-Speed Angle Grinder.
GENERAL SAFETY RULES
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 fl ammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools may create sparks which may
ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded
in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong
or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adaptor plugs. Check with a qualifi ed
electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. If the tools
should electrically malfunction or break down grounding provides a low resistance path
to carry electricity away from the user.
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.
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.
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 infl uence of drugs, alcohol, or
medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in seri-
ous 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 or drawn into air vents.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plugging in. Carrying tools with
your fi nger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on, invites accidents.
