General Safety Warnings

WARNING: For your own safety, read the instruction manual for both the grinder tool and the dust extractor vacuum before using any accessory. Failure to heed these warnings may result in personal injury and serious damage to the tool and the accessory. When

servicing this tool, use only identical replacement parts.

1)WORK AREA SAFETY

a)Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

b)Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

c)Ensure the workplace is well ventilated. Exposure to dust at a poorly ventilated workplace may result in damage to the health.

2)ELECTRICAL SAFETY

a)Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

3)PERSONAL SAFETY

a)Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

b)Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non- skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c)Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

d)Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
