c) Wheels must be used only for recommended applications. For example: do not grind with the side of cut-off wheel Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended for peripheral grinding, side fomes applied to these wheels may cause them to shatte_

d)Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are of correct size and shape for your selected wheel Proper wheel flanges support the wheel thus reducing the possibility of wheel breakage. Flanges for cut-off wheels may be different from grinding wheel flanges.

e)Do not use worn down wheels from larger power tools. Wheel intended for larger power tool is not suitable for the higher speed of a smaller tool and may burst.

d)Do not restart the cutting operation in the workpiece. Let the wheel reach full speed and carefully reenter the cut. The wheel may bind, walk up or kickback if the power tool is restarted in the workpiece.

e)Support panels or any oversized workpiece to minimize the risk of wheel pinching and kickback. Large workpieces tend to sag under their own weight. Supports must be placed under the workpiece near the line of cut and near the edge of the workpiece on both sides of the wheel

f)Use extra caution when making a "pocket cut" into existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding wheel may cut gas or water pipes, electrical wiring or objects that can cause kickback.

Additional Safety Warnings Specific for

_brasive Cutting-Off Operations

a)Do not "jam" the cut-offwheel or apply excessive pressure. Do not attempt to make an excessive depth of cut. Overstressing the wheel increases the loading and susceptibility to twisting or binding of the wheel in the cut and the possibility of kickback or wheel breakage.

b)Do not position your body in line with and behind the rotating wheel When the wheel, at the point of operation, is moving away from your body, the possible kickback may propel the spinning wheel and the power tool directly at you.

c)When wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut for any reason, switch off the power tool and hold the power tool motionless until the wheel comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the cut-off wheel from the cut while the wheel is in motion otherwise kickback may occur, investigate and take corrective action to eliminate the cause of wheel binding.

Safety Warnings Specific for Sanding

Operations

a)Do not use excessively oversized sanding disc paper.

Follow manufacturer's recommendations when selecting sanding paper. Larger sanding paper extending beyond the sanding pad presents a laceration hazard and may cause snagging, tearing of the disc or kickback.

Safety Warnings Specific for Polishing Operations

a)Do not allow any loose portion of the polishing bonnet

or its attachment strings to spin freely. Tuck away or

trim any loose attachment strings. Loose and spinning

attachment strings can entangle your fingers or snag on the workpiece.
