polishing operations
a) This power tool is designed to work as
a polishing tool. Read all safety warnings,
instructions, illustrations and specifica-
tions supplied with this power tool. Fail-
ure to follow all of the instructions below
could result in electric shock, fire, and/or
serious injury.

for operations such as sanding, sandpa-
per grinding, wire brushing or cutting.
Using the wrong power tool can be dan-
gerous and cause injury.
c) Do not use accessories not designed
or recommended by the power tool man-
ufacturer. The ability to connect acces-
sories to your power tool does not guar-
antee safe operation.
d) The rated speed of the accessory must
be at least equal to the maximum speed
marked on the power tool. The acces-
sory, which has a speed higher than the
nominal one, may break and scatter.
e) The outer diameter and thickness of
your accessories must correspond to the
rated power of your power tool. An im-
properly sized accessories cannot be
properly secured or controlled.
f) The threaded attachment of the acces-
sory must match the thread of the spindle
of the polishing machine. If the accesso-
ry is mounted with flanges, the accesso-
ry shaft hole must match the diameter of
the flange. Accessory that do not match
the power tool's mounting hardware will
cause you to lose balance, vibrate exces-
sively and may cause loss of control.
g) Do not use damaged accessories. Be-
fore each use, inspect accessories such
as the disc base for cracks, tears, or ex-
cessive wear. After a power tool or acces-
sory is dropped, inspect it for damage or
install an undamaged accessory. After in-
specting and installing the attachment,
the operator and bystanders must be at
a safe distance from the plane of rotation
of the attachment. The power tool must
be turned on at maximum speed without
be caught in moving parts.
g) If you have dust collectors and dust
collection devices, ensure they are con-
nected and used properly. You can re-
duce the danger by using a dust collector.
Use and maintenance of power tool
a) Do not apply force to the power tool.
Use the right power tool for your pur-
pose. With a power tool used as intend-
ed, the job can be done better and saf-
er and at the speed for which the tool is
designed.
b) Do not use a power tool with a faulty
power switch. A power tool with a faulty
switch is dangerous and should be re-
paired immediately.
c) Before making adjustments, changing
accessories or storing the power tool,
disconnect it from the power source
and/or battery. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of accidentally
starting the power tool.
d) Keep the power tool that you are not
using in a place out of the reach of chil-
dren and do not allow people who are
unfamiliar with it and have not read this
manual to work with it. Power tools be-
come dangerous in the hands of an un-
trained user.
e) Maintain your power tool. Check the
absence of misalignment or jamming of
moving parts, broken parts and other de-
fects that may affect the operation of
the power tool. If it damaged, repair the
power tool before use. Most accidents
are caused by poorly maintained pow-
er tools.
f) Use the power tool, accessories, at-
tachments, etc. in accordance with this
manual and taking into account the work-
ing conditions and features of the work.
Improper use of power tools can lead to
dangerous situations.

nance of the power tool.
