DIE GRINDER SAFETY   
WARNINGS 
Safety Warnings Common for Grinding Operation: 
1. 
This power tool is intended to function as a 
grinder. Read all safety warnings, instructions, 
illustrations and specifications provided with 
this power tool.
 Failure to follow all instructions 
listed below may result in electric shock, fire 
and/or serious injury. 
2. 
Operations such as sanding, wire brushing, 
polishing or cutting-off are not recommended 
to be performed with this power tool.
 
Operations for which the power tool was not 
designed may create a hazard and cause 
personal injury.   
3. 
Do not use accessories which are not 
specifically designed and recommended by 
the tool manufacturer.
 Just because the 
accessory can be attached to your power tool, it 
does not assure safe operation. 
4. 
The rated speed of the accessory must be at 
least equal to the maximum speed marked on 
the power tool.
 Accessories running faster than 
their rated speed can break and fly apart. 
5. 
The outside diameter and the thickness of 
your accessory must be within the capacity 
rating of your power tool.
 Incorrectly sized 
accessories cannot be adequately guarded or 
controlled. 
6. 
Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each 
use inspect the accessory such as abrasive 
wheels for chips and cracks. If power tool or 
accessory is dropped, inspect for damage or 
install an undamaged accessory. After 
inspecting and installing an accessory, 
position yourself and bystanders away from 
the plane of the rotating accessory and run the 
power tool at maximum no-load speed for one 
minute.
 Damaged accessories will normally 
break apart during this test time. 
7. 
Wear personal protective equipment. 
Depending on application, use face shield, 
safety goggles or safety glasses. As 
appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing 
protectors, gloves and workshop apron 
capable of stopping small abrasive or 
workpiece fragments.
 The eye protection must 
be capable of stopping flying debris generated by 
various operations . The dust mask or respirator 
must be capable of filtrating particles generated 
by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high 
intensity noise may cause hearing loss. 
8. 
Keep bystanders a safe distance away from 
work area. Anyone entering the work area 
must wear personal protective equipment.
 
Fragments of workpiece or of a broken accessory 
may fly away and cause injury beyond immediate 
area of operation. 
9. 
Hold power tool by insulated gripping 
surfaces only, when performing an operation 
where the cutting accessory may contact 
hidden wiring or its own cord.
 Cutting 
accessory contacting a "live" wire may make 
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and 
shock the operator. 
10.  Position the cord clear of the spinning 
accessory. If you lose control, the cord may be 
cut or snagged and your hand or arm may be 
pulled into the spinning accessory.   
11.  Never lay the power tool down until the 
accessory has come to a complete stop. The 
spinning accessory may grab the surface and pull 
the power tool out of your control. 
12.  Do not run the power tool while carrying it at 
your side. Accidental contact with the spinning 
accessory could snag your clothing, pulling the 
accessory into your body.   
13.  Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents. The 
motor’s fan will draw the dust inside the housing 
and excessive accumulation of powdered metal 
may cause electrical hazards. 
14.  Do not operate the power tool near flammable 
materials. Sparks could ignite these materials. 
15.  Do not use accessories that require liquid 
coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants 
may result in electrocution or shock. 
16.  Kickback and Related Warnings 
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or 
snagged rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or 
any other accessory. Pinching or snagging causes 
rapid stalling of the rotating accessory which in 
turn causes the uncontrolled power tool to be 
forced in the direction opposite of the accessory’s 
rotation at the point of the binding. 
For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or 
pinched by the workpiece, the edge of the wheel 
that is entering into the pinch point can dig into the 
surface of the material causing the wheel to climb 
out or kick out. The wheel may either jump toward 
or away from the operator, depending on direction 
of the wheel’s movement at the point of pinching. 
Abrasive wheels may also break under these 
conditions. 
Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or 
incorrect operating procedures or conditions and 
can be avoided by taking proper precautions as 
given below.
