W AR N I N G ! Disconnect the plug from the mains before performing any maintenance or cleaning work. MAINTENANCE: After use, clean the unit thoroughly, removing all wood shavings, grinding dust, etc. with a brush or a soft cloth. Ensure all ventilation slots are free from obstruction for optimal air flow and motor cooling. Regularly clean the tool’s air vents by compressed air.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS – GENERAL SAFETY RULES – Warning! Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury. WORK AREA: Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
MERLIN2® ASSEMBLY AND PARTS Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plugging in. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on invites accidents. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
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.
REPLACING ACCESSORIES Avoid bouncing and snagging the accessories, especially when working corners, sharp edges, etc. This can cause loss of control and kickback. If the grinder becomes jammed or bogged down in the work piece, turn the tool off by the switch. Wait for the spinning accessory to stop and unplug the tool, then work to free the jammed material. If the switch is left on, the grinder could restart unexpectedly causing serious injury. Do not leave a running tool unattended; turn power off.
