When using brush, avoid applying too much pressure which causes over bending of wires, leading to premature breakage. Operation with wire wheel brush (optional accessory) 007243 1. Wire wheel brush 1 WARNING: • When using an abrasive cut-off wheel, be sure to use only the special wheel guard designed for use with cut-off wheels. • NEVER use cut-off wheel for side grinding. • Do not "jam" the wheel or apply excessive pressure. Do not attempt to make an excessive depth of cut. Overstressing the wheel increases the loading and susceptibility to twisting or binding of the wheel in the cut and the possibility of kickback, wheel breakage and overheating of the motor may occur. • Do not start the cutting operation in the workpiece. Let the wheel reach full speed and carefully enter into the cut moving the tool forward over the workpiece surface. The wheel may bind, walk up or kickback if the power tool is started in the workpiece. • During cutting operations, never change the angle of the wheel. Placing side pressure on the cut-off wheel (as in grinding) will cause the wheel to crack and break, causing serious personal injury. MAINTENANCE CAUTION: • Check operation of wire wheel brush by running tool with no load, insuring that no one is in front of or in line with the wire wheel brush. • Do not use wire wheel brush that is damaged, or which is out of balance. Use of damaged wire wheel brush could increase potential for injury from contact with broken wires. • ALWAYS use guard with wire wheel brushes, assuring diameter of wheel fits inside guard. Wheel can shatter during use and guard helps to reduce chances of personal injury. Remove the battery cartridge from the tool and place it upside down allowing easy access to spindle. Remove any accessories on spindle. Thread wire wheel brush CAUTION: • Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the battery cartridge is removed before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance. 007222 1 1.
