User manual MAKITA PW5000C

[. . . ] Just because the accessory can be attached to your power tool, it does not assure safe operation. The rated speed of the accessory must be at least equal to the maximum speed marked on the power tool. Accessories running faster than their rated speed can break and fly apart. The outside diameter and the thickness of your accessory must be within the capacity rating of your power tool. [. . . ] A) Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback forces. Always use auxiliary handle, if provided, for maximum control over kickback or torque reaction during start-up. The operator can control torque reactions or kickback forces, if proper precautions are taken. C) Do not position your body in the area where power tool will move if kickback occurs. kickback will propel the tool in direction opposite to the wheel's movement at the point of snagging. Safety Warnings Specific for Stone Polishing Operations: a) Do not use excessively oversized abrasive disc. Larger abrasive disc extending beyond the pad presents a laceration hazard and may cause snagging, tearing of the disc or kickback. Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged or that the battery cartridge is removed before carrying out any work on the tool. Pay attention that the wheel continues to rotate after the tool is switched off. Ensure that ventilation openings are kept clear when working in dusty conditions. If it should become necessary to clear dust, first disconnect the tool from the mains supply (use non metallic objects) and avoid damaging internal parts. WARNING: DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence to safety rules for the subject product. MISUSE or failure to follow the safety rules stated in this instruction manual may cause serious personal injury. Non-observance of these precautions may lead to personal injuries and damage to the tool!The tool was built according to the European Standards EN60745-1 (safety of hand-held, motor-driven power tools; here in particular section of power tools with water connection) and EN60309-2 (plugs, receptacles and couplings for industrial applications). When applying these standards, the earth contact position of the plug-in device may only be carried out in "12 o'clock position". The tool has a plug-in device with a "12 o'clock" earth contact position. However, since the European Standard EN60309-2 does not provide a differentiation regarding the supply voltage and this earth contact position, there is the possibility to confuse the connection to an isolating transformer with another output voltage (e. When connecting the tool to an isolating transformer, make absolutely sure to use the correct output voltage (110 V, 50 ­ 60 Hz). This tool is designed exclusively for connection to an isolating transformer with an output voltage of 110 V. Due to its use in wet conditions (water connection on the tool), this tool must never be connected to a power supply without an isolating transformer. Damages caused by inappropriate tampering with the plug-in device are not subject to warranty or legal guarantee claims. [. . . ] ⷠThe speed adjusting dial can be turned only as far as 5 and back to 1. Do not force it past 5 or 1, or the speed adjusting function may no longer work. Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance. Regularly clean the tool's air vents or whenever the vents start to become obstructed. [. . . ]
