Director
safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and
specifications provided with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

wheels, sanding, wire brushing, polishing or
cutting-off are not recommended to be
performed with this power tool. Operations for
ENH101-13
which the power tool was not designed may
create a hazard and cause personal injury.
3. Do not use accessories which are not
specifically designed and recommended by
the tool manufacturer. Just because the
accessory can be attached to your power tool, it
does not assure safe operation.
4. 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.
5. The outside diameter and the thickness of
your accessory must be within the capacity
rating of your power tool. Incorrectly sized
accessories cannot be adequately guarded or
controlled.
6. The arbour size of wheels, flanges or any
other accessory must properly fit the spindle
of the power tool. Accessories with arbour holes
that do not match the mounting hardware of the
power tool will run out of balance, vibrate
excessively and may cause loss of control.
7. Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each
use inspect the accessory such as offset
diamond wheels for chips and cracks. If power
tool or accessory is dropped, inspect for
damage or install an undamaged accessory.
After inspecting and installing an accessory,
position yourself and bystanders away from
the plane of the rotating accessory and run the
power tool at maximum no-load speed for one
minute. Damaged accessories will normally
