or wood chips.
e. Wear a hard hat to protect your head from falling
objects.
2. Gloves
a. The gloves should provide protection based on the work
materials.
b. Wear suitable gloves to reduce the effects of vibration.
3. Protective Clothing
a. Wear protective clothing designed for the work
environment and tool. Examples are electrical non-
conductive clothes or clothes treated to resist corrosive
liquids or materials.
4. Foot Protection
a. Steel toe footwear or steel toe caps to prevent injury
from falling objects.
b. Non-skid footwear is recommended to maintain footing
and balance.
5. Control the tool, personal movement and the work environment
to avoid personal injury or damage to tool. Stay alert, watch what
you are doing and use your common sense.

VIBRATION PRECAUTIONS
1. This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-term
exposure to vibration may cause temporary or permanent
physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms and shoulders.
2. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an extended
period should first be examined by a doctor and then have
regular medical check ups to ensure medical problems are
not being caused by or worsened from tool use.
3. If you feel any medical symptoms related to vibrations
(such as tingling, numbness, and white or blue fingers), seek
medical attention as soon as possible.
4. DO NOT use this tool if one of the following applies:
a. Pregnant
b. Impaired blood circulation to the hands
c. Past hand injuries
d. Nervous system disorders
e. Diabetes
f. Raynaud’s Disease
5. Do not smoke while operating the tool. Nicotine reduces the
blood flow to the hands and fingers, increasing the risk of
vibration-related injury.
6. Wear suitable gloves to reduce the effects of vibration.
7. Use the tool with the least amount of vibration, when there is
a choice between different processes.
8. Do not use for extended periods. Take frequent breaks to
when using this tool.
9. Let the tool do the work. Grip the tool as lightly as possible
(while still keeping safe control of it).

SPECIFIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Keep hands and fingers away from grinding area. Any part of
body coming in contact with moving parts could cause injury.
2. To maintain complete control, firmly hold your rotary die
grinder with both hands. Do not place hands over air vents.
Proper cooling of motor is necessary to ensure normal life of
tool.
3. Never point the cutter towards yourself. If it should slip,
part of your body could come in contact with moving parts,
causing injury.
4. Never force the tool. Excessive pressure could bend or break
the mandrel, resulting in damage to the tool, your work piece
or serious personal injury. If your grinder runs smoothly
under no load, but does not run smoothly under load, then
excessive pressure is being used.
5. Use an appropriate dust respirator when working for an
extended period of time. This will help prevent breathing in
the fine dust created while working.
WARNING! Immediately switch off the tool if any of the following
occurs:
• The switch or trigger is broken.
• The tool will not shut off on it own. Disconnect from air
source.
• The user sees or smells smoke.
• The user smells the odour of scorched insulation
AIR TOOL PRECAUTIONS
1. Air tools produce more noise than their electric counterparts.
Extended exposure to this noise may cause hearing loss.
a. Wear ear protection gear to eliminate or reduce the
noise.
b. If possible add a muffling device to the air tool’s
exhaust.
2. Do not operate this tool if the air hose is damaged.
a. Inspect the tool’s air line for cracks, fraying or other
faults before each use.

b. Discontinue use if a hissing can be heard from the air
line or connectors while operating the tool.
c. Take the following steps if either of the above situations
occur:
i. Tag or mark the tool as “defective” or “out of
service” until repaired.
ii. Contact a qualified person repair or replace the
defective component/hose.
3. Prevent damage to air hose by observing the following:
a. Never use the hose to carry the tool.
b. Keep the air hose of the tool and the tool’s work path
while in operation. The hose should always stay behind
the tool.
c. Keep the hose away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts.
d. Do not allow people, mobile equipment or vehicles to
pass over unprotected air hose.
i. Position air hose away from traffic areas.
ii. Place hose in reinforced conduit.
iii. Place planks on either side of the hose to create a
protective trench.
e. Do not wrap hose around the tool as sharp edges may
pierce the hose or cause cracks if wound too tight.
Gently coil the hose and either hang on a hook or fasten
with a device to keep hose together when storing.
4. An air hose under pressure that is damaged or disconnected
from an air tool may whip around and cause damage to the
work area or personal injury. Secure the compressor’s air
hose to a fixed or permanent structure with clamps or cable
ties.

AIR COMPRESSOR
Ensure the compressor
used with the tool can
supply the required
Cubic Feet per Minute
at the required PSI (see
Specifications).
1. Use proper size and
type of air pressure
line and fittings.
2. Use only clean,
dry, regulated
compressed air at
the rated range as
marked on the tool.
CAUTION! Do not use an
air source other than an
air compressor to power
this tool.
3. Always use an air regulator, an in-line filter and a moisture
trap in your compressed air system. These accessories will
increase the tool’s life and keeps the tool in good working
condition. See the diagram for recommended components of
an air line.
4. Avoid using an air hose that is too long. The longer the hose,
the lower the pressure that reaches the tool, possibly causing
it to cease functioning. As well, a longer hose can become a
tripping hazard.
5. Air tool CFM consumption ratings are based upon a 25% duty
cycle. If you require continuous duty, a larger compressor is
required.

AIR SOURCE INSTALLATION
WARNING! Never use pure oxygen, carbon dioxide, combustible
gases or any bottled gas as an air source for a tool. Such gases
are capable of causing an explosion and serious injury to persons.
1. Set the air pressure regulator on the air compressor to the
recommended PSI level (see Specifications). Do not exceed
the tool recommended air pressure. Excess pressure could
result in damage to the tool, to your workpiece or serious
injury.
2. Prepare a standard 1/4 in. air connector for use with your
tool. Wrap the threaded portion of the air connector with
thread tape. Wrap in a clockwise direction so it will not
unravel when attaching to a quick connector. Attach it to the
tool air inlet and tighten.
3. Attach a standard quick connector to the air source’s hose.
Attach the air hose to the tool’s air connector.
4. Check the air line and its connections for air leaks. Do not
use the tool until you have repaired all air leaks.
DISCONNECTING AIR SOURCE
WARNING! Failure to follow these steps could result in severe
injury, tool or property damage.
Disconnect tool from air source before cleaning, servicing,
changing parts/accessories or when not in use.
1. Turn hopper regulator to the OFF position.
2. Turn the air regulator to the OFF or L position.
3. Turn off the air compressor.
4. Disconnect the air pressure hose.
5. Discharge any residual pressure inside the tool.
