SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES AND SYMBOLS
1. ALWAYS use proper guard with grinding wheel. A guard protects operator from broken
wheel fragments.
2. Accessories must be rated for at least the speed recommended on the tool warning
label. Wheels and other accessories running over rated speed can fly apart and cause
injury.
3. Hold tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a “live” wire will
make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.
4. ALWAYS wear ear protectors when using the tool for extended periods.
Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise can cause hearing loss.
5. Use only a depressed center wheel with a rated capacity which is GREATER than 6,600
RPM. Using any wheel a rated capacity LESS than 6,600 RPM and/or an incorrect sized
wheel (see SPECIFICATIONS at page 10) may result in wheel breakage, flying wheel
fragments, and resulting in death or serious injury.
6. NEVER touch moving parts.
NEVER place your hands, fingers or other body parts near the tool’s
moving parts.
7. NEVER operate without all guards in place.
NEVER operate this tool without all guards or safety features in place and in proper
working order. If maintenance or servicing requires the removal of a guard or safety
feature, be sure to replace the guard or safety feature before resuming operation of the
tool.
8. Use right tool.
Don’t force small tool or attachment to do the job of a heavy-duty tool.
Don’t use tool for purpose not intended —for example— don’t use circular saw for
cutting tree limbs or logs.
9. NEVER use a power tool for applications other than those specified.
