It has been manufactured under stringent GMC Quality Standards to meet superior performance criteria. You will find your new tool easy and safe to operate, and, with proper care, it will give you many years of dependable service. CAUTION. Carefully read through this entire Instruction Manual before using your new GMC Power Tool. Take special care to heed the Cautions and Warnings.
3. Personal safety a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. c.
• If you are interrupted when operating the tool, complete the process and switch off before looking up. • Periodically check that all nuts, bolts and other fixings are properly tightened. • Do not use a wheel that has received a blow, especially to the side of the wheel. • Replace a cracked or suspect wheel. • Always allow a new wheel to run for a few minutes at full speed before using it. Stand to one side at start up. • Check that the wheel rotates freely each time before start up.
