008385
CAUTION:
• Check operation of wire wheel brush by running
tool with no load, insuring that no one is in front of
or in line with the wire wheel brush.
• Do not use wire wheel brush that is damaged, or
which is out of balance. Use of damaged wire
wheel brush could increase potential for injury from
contact with broken wires.
• ALWAYS use guard with wire wheel brushes,
assuring diameter of wheel fits inside guard. Wheel
can scatter during use and guard helps to reduce
chances of personal injury.
Unplug tool and place it upside down allowing easy
access to spindle. Remove any accessories on spindle.
Thread wire wheel brush onto spindle and tighten with
the wrenches.
When using wire wheel brush, avoid applying too much
pressure which causes over bending of wires, leading to
premature breakage.

WARNING:
• When using an abrasive cut-off wheel, be sure to
use only the special wheel guard designed for use
with cut-off wheels.
• NEVER use cut-off wheel for side grinding.
During cutting operations, never change the angle of the
wheel. Placing side pressure on the cut-off wheel (as in
grinding) will cause the wheel to crack and break,
causing serious personal injury.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection
or maintenance.
• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or
the like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may
result.
