TOOL TIPS
Always hold the tool away from your face. Accessories can be damaged during handling, and can fly apart as they come up to speed. This is not common, but it does happen.
Start the tool before applying to work and let the tool come to full speed before contacting the workpiece. Lift the tool from the work
before releasing the switch. DO NOT turn the switch “ON” and “OFF” while the tool is under load; this will greatly decrease the switch life.
Practice on scrap materials first to see how the tool performs. Keep in mind that the work is done by the speed of the tool and by the accessory in the collet. You should not lean on or push the tool during use.
Instead, lower the spinning accessory lightly to the work and allow it to touch the point at which you want grinding to begin. Con centrate on guiding the tool over the work using very little pressure from your hand. Allow the accessory to do the work.
Usually, it is best to make a series of passes with the tool rather than attempt to do all the work in one pass.
