it has been found that electric tools are subject to accelerated wear and possible premature

failure when they are used to work on fiber glass boats and sports cars, wallboard, spackling

compounds or plaster.. The chips and gdndings from these materials are highly abrasive to

electrical tool parts, such as bearings, brushes, commutators, etc. Consequently, it is not

recommended that this tool be used for extended work on any fiberglass material, wallboard,

spackling compound or plaster. During any use on these materials, it is extremely important that

the tool is cleaned frequently by blowing with an air jet.
