Instructions / Assembly

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES: Be aware of the switch location, when placing the tool
down or when picking the tool up. The protective wall guard around the on/off switch
greatly reduces this happening but be aware of your surroundings to prevent unintentional
switch activation.
After changing any accessory or making any adjustments, make sure the Allen key
or any screws are securely tightened but not over tightened.
Hold the grinder 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. If cutting
into existing walls or other blind areas where electrical wiring may exist is unavoidable,
disconnect all fuses or circuit breakers feeding this work site.
Always disconnect the power cord from the power source before making any
adjustments or attaching any accessories. You may unexpectedly cause the grinder to
start, leading to serious personal injury.
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.
Do not reach in the area of the rotating wheel. The proximity of the rotating wheel to
your hand may not always be obvious.
Carefully handle both the tool and individual grinding wheels to avoid chipping
or cracking. Install a new grinding wheel if tool is dropped while grinding. Do not use a
wheel that may be damaged. Fragments from a wheel that bursts during operation will
fly away at great velocity possibly striking you or bystanders. If a chain tooth becomes
jagged, simply sharpen it with a few strokes of the chain saw file or diamond file to
bring the edge back. Other accessories may need replacing if damaged.
Use clamps to support work piece whenever practical. Never hold a small work
piece in one hand and the tool in the other hand while in use. Allow for sufficient
space between your hand and the spinning grinder. Round material such as dowel
rods, pipes or tubing have a tendency to roll while being cut, and may cause the
grinder to “bite” or jump toward you. Clamping a small work piece allows you to use both
hands to control the tool.
Inspect your work piece before cutting. When cutting irregularly shaped objects,
plan your work so it will not slip, pinch the grinder and be torn from your hand.
For example, if carving wood, make sure there are no nails or foreign objects in the work
piece. These alien materials may cause the grinder to jump.
Never start the tool when the grinder is engaged in the work piece. The accessory’s
cutting edge may grab causing loss of control of the cutter and possible injury to you.
