Follow the instructions given in the Accessory Chart. • Make sure the disc or wheel rotates in the direction of the arrows on the accessory and the tool. • Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use inspect the accessory such as abrasive wheels for chips and cracks, backing pad for cracks, tear or excess wear, wire brush for loose or cracked wires. If power tool or accessory is dropped, inspect for damage or install an undamaged accessory.
