Air Supply And Connection Hazards
Never direct air at yourself or anyone else. Air under pressure
can cause severe injury.
Always shut off air supply, drain hose of air pressure and
disconnect tool from air supply when not in use, before
changing accessories or when making repairs.
Whipping hoses can cause serious injury. Always check for
damaged or loose hoses and fittings.
Do not use quick disconnect couplings at tool. See instructions
for correct setup.
Whenever universal twist couplings are used, lock pins must be
installed.
Do not exceed maximum air pressure of 90 psi/6.2 bar or as
stated on tool nameplate.
Entanglement Hazards
Keep away from rotating spindle and accessory.
Do not wear jewelry or loose clothing.
Scalping can occur if hair is not kept away from tool and
accessories.
Choking can occur if neckwear is not kept away from tool and
accessories.
Operating Hazards
Never mount a grinding wheel, cut off wheel or router cutter on
a die grinder or tire buffer. A grinding wheel or other accessory
that bursts can cause very serious injury or death.
Grinding accessory's rated speed must be equal to or greater
than the speed of the die grinder.
Use only mounted wheels or tire buffing accessories with
adequate speed rating and the correct shaft diameter.
Do not use wire brushes, drill bits, or any other accessory other
than mounted wheels, burrs and tire buffing accessories.
Damaged, worn or incorrectly mounted accessories can cause
higher vibration. To reduce exposures to vibration ensure
burring tools are sharp and this tool and all accessories are in
proper working condition.
Ensure that the workpiece is properly supported.
Avoid direct contact with rotating spindle and accessory to
prevent cutting of hands or other body parts. Wear gloves to
To reduce risk of injury, everyone using, installing, repairing,
maintaining, changing accessories on, or working near this tool
must read and understand these instructions before performing
any such task.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

DO NOT DISCARD - GIVE TO USER
WARNING
help protect hands. Tool continues to run after the throttle lever
has been released.
Do not disable the lock off feature on the throttle lever.
This tool and its accessories must not be modified.
Operators and maintenance personnel must be physically able
to handle the power of the tool and capable of performing the
job task.
Always wear impact-resistant eye and face protection when
involved with or near the operation, repair or maintenance of the
tool or changing accessories on the tool. Gloves and protective
clothing are recommended.
Even small projectiles can injure eyes and cause blindness.
Be sure all others in the area are wearing impact-resistant eye
and face protection.
Daily measure the air tool speed with a tachometer to make sure
it is not greater than the RPM marked on the grinding accessory.
Maximize the gripping length of the accessory, it must not be
less than .390 in. (10mm). Increased overhang of a mounted
wheel reduces its permitted speed - Refer to manufacturer's
recommendations and (ANSI B7.1)
Workplace Hazards
Slip/Trip/Fall is a major cause of serious injury or death. Be
aware of excess hose left on the walking or work surface.
High sound levels can cause permanent hearing loss. Use
hearing protection as recommended by your employer or OSHA
regulation (see 29 CFR part 1910).
Maintain a balanced body position and secure footing.
Repetitive work motions, awkward positions and exposure
to vibration can be harmful to hands and arms. If numbness,
tingling, pain or whitening of the skin occurs, stop using tool
and consult a physician.
Avoid inhaling dust or handling debris from the work process
which can be harmful to your health. Use dust extraction and
wear respiratory protective equipment when working with
materials which produce airborne particles.
This tool is not intended for use in explosive atmospheres and is
not insulated for contact with electric power sources.
Potentially explosive atmospheres can be caused by dust and
fumes resulting from sanding or grinding. Use dust extraction
or suppression system which are suitable for the material being
processed.
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling
and other construction activities contains chemicals known to
the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
- Lead from lead based paints
- Crystalline silica bricks and cement and other masonry
products
- And Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated rubber
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how
often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work
with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
For professional use only.
