OPERATION
WARNING: It should never be necessary to
force the tool. The weight of the tool applies ade-
quate pressure. Forcing and excessive pressure
could cause dangerous wheel breakage.
WARNING: ALWAYS replace wheel if tool is
dropped while grinding.
WARNING: NEVER hit the workpiece with the
wheel.
WARNING: Avoid bouncing and snagging
the wheel, especially when working corners,
sharp edges etc. This can cause loss of control and
kickback.
WARNING: NEVER use tool with wood cutting
blades and other saw blades. Such blades when
