SERVICE
Tool service must be performed only by qualified
personnel. Service or maintenance performed by
unqualified personnel could result in risk of injury.
When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement
parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section
of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to
follow Maintenance instructions may create a risk of
electric shock or injury.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
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.
Always make sure the work surface is free from nails
and other foreign objects. Cutting into a nail can cause
the bit and the tool to jump and damage the bit.
Never hold the workpiece in one hand and the tool in
the other hand when in use. Never place the hands
near or below the cutting surface. Clamping the
material and guiding the tool with both hands is much
safer.
Never lay workpiece on hard surfaces like concrete,
stone, etc. Protruding cutting bit may cause tool to jump.
Always wear safety goggles and dust mask. Use only
in well ventilated area. Using personal safety devices
and working in a safe environment reduces risk of injury.
After changing the bits or making adjustments, make
sure the collet nut and any other adjustment devices
are securely tightened. Loose adjustment devices will be
violently thrown.
Never use dull or damaged bits. Sharp bits must be
handled with care. Damaged bits can snap during use.
Dull bits require more force to push the tool, possibly
causing the bit to break.
Never touch the bit during or immediately after use.
After use the bit is too hot to be touched by bare hands.
ANGLE GRINDER ATTACHMENT SAFETY
Always wear safety goggles with side shields or a face
mask when using the angle grinder attachment. High
speed grinding and sanding will throw hot sparks and
dust particles that could cause serious injury to your
eyes.
Always wear hearing protection when using the angle
grinder attachment.
Always use appropriate dust mask when using the
angle grinder attachment.
Use ONLY grinding wheels and sanding discs rated
for speeds greater than 18,000 RPM, as the angle
grinder attachment runs at speeds from 12,000 –
18,000 RPM.
Inspect the grinding wheel before each use to make
sure it is tightly fastened and free from cracks or any other
damages.
Rotate the guard to a position where it will protect the
operator from sparks & dust. The guard should be
positioned immediately in front of the side handle to
protect the operator’s hand.
Do not over tighten the nut holding the grinding wheel
in place. Excessive tightening may cause the grinding
wheel to crack and possibly shatter during operation.
Do not clamp the angle grinder attachment in a vice or
use as a fixed grinder.
Hold the angle grinder attachment securely with two
hands at all times while it is running.
Never turn the motor switch ON with the grinding
wheel or sanding disc touching the work surface.
FLEXIBLE SHAFT SAFETY
When using the flexible shaft, always hang the Spin
Saw on its stand, using the hanging loop at the top of the
motor housing.
Always use safety glasses, hearing protection and a
dust mask.
Never hold the workpiece with your hand while using
a cutting bit. Clamp the workpiece in a vice or to a
workbench to permit using two hands on the flexible shaft.
Never place hands in the path of the cutter or under the
workpiece.
