Cordless grinder safety warnings
Safety Warnings Common for Grinding, Sanding,
Wire Brushing, or Abrasive Cutting-Off Operations:
1.
This power tool is intended to function as a
grinder, sander, wire brush or cut-off tool.
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illus
-
trations and specifications provided with this
power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed
below may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
2.
Operations such as polishing are not rec
-
ommended to be performed with this power
tool.
Operations for which the power tool was not
designed may create a hazard and cause per-
sonal injury.
3.
Do not use accessories which are not specifi
-
cally designed and recommended by the tool
manufacturer.
Just because the accessory can
be attached to your power tool, it does not assure
safe operation.
4.
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.
5.
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.
6.
Threaded mounting of accessories must
match the grinder spindle thread. For acces
-
sories 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.
7.
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 maxi
-
mum no-load speed for one minute.
Damaged acces-
sories will normally break apart during this test time.
8.
Wear personal protective equipment.
Depending on application, use face shield,
safety goggles or safety glasses. As appropri
-
ate, wear dust mask, hearing protectors, gloves
and workshop apron capable of stopping small
abrasive or workpiece fragments.
The eye pro-
tection must be capable of stopping flying debris
generated by various operations. The dust mask
or respirator must be capable of filtrating particles
generated by your operation. Prolonged exposure
to high intensity noise may cause hearing loss.
9.
Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work
area. Anyone entering the work area must wear
personal protective equipment.
Fragments of
workpiece or of a broken accessory may fly away and
cause injury beyond immediate area of operation.
10.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only, when performing an operation
where the cutting tool may contact hidden
wiring.
Contact with a "live" wire will also make
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and
could give the operator an electric shock.
11.
Never lay the power tool down until the acces
-
sory has come to a complete stop.
The spinning
accessory may grab the surface and pull the
power tool out of your control.
12.
Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your
side.
Accidental contact with the spinning accessory could
snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into your body.
13.
Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents.
The
motor’s fan will draw the dust inside the housing
and excessive accumulation of powdered metal
may cause electrical hazards.
14.
Do not operate the power tool near flammable
materials.
Sparks could ignite these materials.
15.
Do not use accessories that require liquid
coolants.
Using water or other liquid coolants
may result in electrocution or shock.
Kickback and Related Warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged
rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or any other acces
-
sory. Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling of the
rotating accessory which in turn causes the uncon-
trolled power tool to be forced in the direction opposite
of the accessory’s rotation at the point of the binding.
For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or pinched
by the workpiece, the edge of the wheel that is entering
into the pinch point can dig into the surface of the material
causing the wheel to climb out or kick out. The wheel may
either jump toward or away from the operator, depending on
direction of the wheel’s movement at the point of pinching.
Abrasive wheels may also break under these conditions.
Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or
incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be
avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.
