Additional Warnings (cont’d)
Accessories
Do not stop the tool by forcing the accessory or by using sideways
pressure.
Do not use accessories that are bent, damaged, or have missing teeth.
This is highly dangerous and could result in a serious accident causing
injury to the operator and bystanders and damage to the tool.
Only use accessories that are recommended by the supplier and that
are in good condition.
Do not force the tool; let the accessory do the work. This will reduce the
wear on the tool and accessory, increasing its efficiency and operating
life.
Accessories must be rated for the speed recommended on the tool
warning label or higher. Wheels and other accessories running beyond
their rated speeds can fly apart and cause serious injury.
Never bend the flexible shaft tighter than a 6” radius. Overly tight bends
can generate excessive heat on the jacket or hand piece and cause
burns.
Always tighten the collet nut and any other adjustment devices when
attaching accessories. Loose accessories can fly out of the tool with
great force, possibly causing injury or property damage.
Do not place your hands or any other part of your body near spinning
accessories. Touching a spinning accessory can cause serious injury.
Run brush accessories at full operating speed for at least one minute
before each use, being sure that the area surrounding the brush is clear.
This procedure will remove loose bristles or wires and help prevent
injury or damage to the item you are working on.
Never operate wire and bristle brushes at speeds above15,000RPM.
Always aim brushes away from you. These accessories discharge
particles and bristles at high speed, which can become embedded in our
skin.
WARNING! ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION WHEN USING THIS
TOOL. HIGH-SPEED ACCESSORIES CAN DISCHARGE PARTICLES,
BRISTLES, OR OTHER DEBRIS OR CAN COME APART DURING USE.
FLYING DEBRIS CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY.
