SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES USB047-3

DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence to polisher safety rules. If you use this tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer seri- ous personal injury.

1.Accessories must be rated for at least the speed recommended on the tool warning label. Wheels and other accessories running over rated speed can fly apart and cause injury.

2.Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.

3.Check the backing pad carefully for cracks, damage or deformity before oper- ation. Replace cracked, damaged or deformed pad immediately.

4.NEVER use tool with wood cutting blades or other sawblades. Such blades when used on a polisher frequently kick and cause loss of control leading to personal injury.

5.Hold the tool firmly.

6.Keep hands away from rotating parts.

7.Make sure the abrasive disc or wool bon- net is not contacting the workpiece before the switch is turned on.

8.When sanding metal surfaces, watch out for flying sparks. Hold the tool so that sparks fly away from you and other per- sons or flammable materials.
