Service
▶ Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
2.2 Safety warnings common for grinding, sanding, wire brushing,
polishing or abrasive cutting-off operations:
▶ This power tool is intended to function as a grinder, sander, wire brush
or cut-off tool. Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations
and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury.
▶ Operations such as polishing are not recommended to be performed
with this power tool. Operations for which the power tool was not
designed may create a hazard and cause personal injury.
▶ Do not use accessories which are not specifically designed and
recommended by the tool manufacturer. Just because the accessory
can be attached to your power tool, it does not assure safe operation.
▶ The rated speed of the accessory must be at least equal to the
maximum speed marked on the power tool. Accessories running faster
than their rated speed can break and fly apart.
▶ The outside diameter and the thickness of your accessory must
be within the capacity rating of your power tool. Incorrectly sized
accessories cannot be adequately guarded or controlled.
▶ Threaded mounting of accessories must match the grinder spindle
thread. For accessories mounted by flanges, the arbour hole of the
accessory must fit the locating diameter of the flange. Accessories
that do not match the mounting hardware of the power tool will run out of
balance, vibrate excessively and may cause loss of control.
▶ Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use inspect the
accessory such as abrasive wheels for chips and cracks, backing
pad for cracks, tear or excess wear, wire brush for loose or cracked
wires. If power tool or accessory is dropped, inspect for damage or
install an undamaged accessory. After inspecting and installing an
accessory, position yourself and bystanders away from the plane of
the rotating accessory and run the power tool at maximum no-load
speed for one minute. Damaged accessories will normally break apart
during this test time.
▶ Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on application,
use face shield, safety goggles or safety glasses. As appropriate,
wear dust mask, hearing protectors, gloves and workshop apron
capable of stopping small abrasive or workpiece fragments. The
eye protection must be capable of stopping flying debris generated by
various operations. The dust mask or respirator must be capable of
