General Power Tool Safety Warnings
WARNING! Read all safety warnings
and all instructions. Failure to follow
the warnings and instructions may
result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS
FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-
operated (cordless) power tool.
1) WORK AREA SAFETY
a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) D
o not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power
tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do
not use any adapter plugs
with earthed
(grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There
is an increased risk of electric shock if your
body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of
electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the
cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging
the power tool. Keep cord away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the
risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors,
use an extension cord suitable for outdoor
use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) If oper
ating a power tool in a damp
location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected supply.
Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric
shock.
3) PERSONAL SAFETY
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power
tools may
result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off position before
connecting to power source and/or
battery pack, picking up
or carrying the
tool. Carrying power tools with your finger
on the switch or energising power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key left attached to a rotating
DWE886T DWE886S

part of the power tool may result in personal
injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection
of dust extraction
and collection facilities,
ensure these are connected and properly
used. Use of dust collection can reduce
dust-related hazards.
4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the
correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it
was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any power
tool that cannot be c
ontrolled with the switch
is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
in
structions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the power tool’s operation.
If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained c
utting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc., in accordance with these
instructions taking into account the
working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
5) SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person usi
ng only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL OPERATIONS
Safety Warnings Common for Grinding, Sanding,
Wire Brushing, Polishing or Abrasive, Cutting-Off
Operations
a)
b)
c) Do not use accessories which are not
specifically designed and recommended
by the tool manufacturer. Just because the
accessor
y can be attached to your power
tool, it does not assure safe operation.
d) The rated speed of the accessory must
be at least equal to the maximum speed
marked on the power tool. Acc
essories
running faster than their rated speed can
break and fly apart.
e) 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.
f) The arbor size of wheels, flanges,
backing pads or any other accessory
must properly fit the spindle of the power
tool. Accessories with arbor holes that do
not match the mounting hard
ware of the
power tool will run out of balance, vibrate
excessively and may cause loss of control.
g) Do not use a damaged accessory.
Before each use inspect the accessory
such as abrasive wheel for chips and
cracks, backing pad for cracks, tear or
excess wear, wire brush for loose or
cracked wires. If power tool or accessory
is dropped, inspect for damage or
install an undamaged accessory. After
inspecting and installing an accessory,
position yourself a

from the plane of the rotating accessory
and run the power tool at maximum
no-load speed for one minute. Damaged
accessories will normally break apart during
this test time.
h) Wear personal protective equipment.
Depending on application, use face
shield, safety goggles or safety glasses.
As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing
protectors, gloves and workshop apron
capable of stopping small abrasive or
workpiece fragments. The eye protection
must be capable of stopping flying debris
generated by various operations. The
dust mask or respirator must be capable
of filtrating particles generated by your
operation. Prolonged exposure to high
intensity noise may cause hearing loss.
i) Keep bystanders a safe distance away
from work area. Anyone entering the
work area must wear personal protective
equipment. Fragments of workpiece or of a
broken accessory may fly away and cause
injury beyond immediate area of operation.
j) Hold power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only, when performing an
operation where the cutting accessory
may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord. Cutting accessory contacting a “live”
wire may make exposed metal parts of the
power tool “live” and shock the operator.
k) Position the cord clear of the spinning
accessory. If you lose control, the cord may
be cut or snagged and your hand or arm
may be pulled into the spinning accessory.
l) Never lay the power tool down until the
accessory has come to a complete stop.
The spinning accessory may grab the surface
and pull the power tool out of your control.
m) Do not run the power tool while carr
ying
it at your side. Accidental contact with the
spinning accessory could snag your clothing,
pulling the accessory into your body.
n) Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents.
The motor’s fan will draw the dust inside
the housing and excessive accumulation
of powdered metal may cause electrical
hazards.
o) Do not operate the power tool near
flammable materials. Sparks could ignite
these materials.
p) Do not use accessories that require
liquid coolants. Using water or other liquid
coolants may result in electrocution or shock.
Causes and Operator Prevention of Kickback
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched
or snagged rotating wheel, backing pad,
brush or any other accessory. Pinching
or snagging causes rapid stalling of the
rotating accessory which in turn causes the
uncontrolled power tool to be forced in the
direction opposite of the accessory’s rotation
at the point of the binding.
For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged
or pinched by the workpiece, the edge of the
wheel that is entering into the pinch point can
dig into the surface of the material causing
the wheel to climb out or kick out. The wheel
may either jump toward or away from the
operator, depending on direction of the
wheel’s movement at the point of pinching.
Abrasive wheels may also break under these
conditions.
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or
incorrect operating procedures or conditions
and can be avoided by taking proper
precautions as given below:
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 reaction or kickback forces, if proper
precautions are taken.
b) Never place your hand near the rotating
accessory. Accessory may kickback over
your hand.
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.
d) Use special care when working corners,
sharp edges etc. Avoid bouncing and
snagging the accessory. Corners, sharp
edges or bouncing have a tendency to snag
the rotating accessory and cause loss of
control or kickback.
e) Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving
blade or toothed saw blade. Such blades
create frequent kickback and loss of control.
Safety Warnings Specific for Grinding and Abrasive
Cutting-Off Operations Operations
a) Use only wheel types that are
recommended for your power tool and
ENGLI S H
5
the specific guard designed for the
selected wheel. Wheels for which the power
tool was not designed cannot be adequately
guarded and are unsafe.
b) Wheels must be used only for
recommended applications. For example:
do not grind with the side of cut-off
wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended
for peripheral grinding, side forces applied to
these wheels may cause them to shatter.
c) Always use undamaged wheel flanges
that are of correct size and shape for
your selected wheel. Proper wheel flanges
support the wheel thus reducing the
possibility of wheel breakage. Flanges
for
cut-off wheels may be different from grinding
wheel flanges.
d) Do not use worn down wheels from larger
power tools. Wheel intended for larger
power tool is not suitable for the higher
speed of a smaller tool and may burst.
Additional Safety Warnings Specific for Abrasive
Cutting-Off Operations
a) Do not “jam” the cut-off wheel or apply
excessive pressure. Do not attempt
to make an excessive depth of cut.
Overstressing the wheel increases the loading
and susceptibility to twisting or binding of
the wheel in the cut and the possibility of
kickback or wheel breakage.
b) Do not position your body in line with and
behind the rotating wheel
. When the wheel,
at the point of operation, is moving away
from your body, the possible kickback may
propel the spinning wheel and the power tool
directly at you.
c) When wheel is binding or when
interrupting a cut for any reason, switch
off the power tool and hold the power
tool motionless until the wheel comes to a
complete stop. Never attempt to remove
the cut-off wheel from the cut while the
wheel is in motion otherwise kickback
may occur. Investigate and take corrective
action to eliminate the cause of wheel
binding.
d) Do not restart the cutting operation
in the
workpiece. Let the wheel reach full speed
and carefully reenter the cut. The wheel
may bind, walk up or kickback if the power
tool is restarted in the workpiece.
e) Support panels or any oversized
workpiece to minimize the risk of wheel
pinching and kickback. Large workpieces
tend to sag under their own weight. Supports
must be placed under the workpiece near
the line of cut and near the edge of the
workpiece on both sides of the wheel.
f) Use extra caution when making a “pocket
cut” into existing walls or other blind
areas. The
protruding wheel may cut gas or
water pipes, electrical wiring or objects that
can cause kickback.
Safety Warnings Specific for Polishing Operations
a) Do not allow any loose portion of the
polishing bonnet or its attachment strings
to spin freely. Tuck away or trim any loose
attachment strings. Loose and spinning
attachment strings can entangle your fingers
or snag on the workpiece.
Safety Warnings Specific for Wire Brushing
Operations
a) Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by
the brush even during ordinary operation.
Do not overstress the wires by applying
excessive load to the brush. The wire
bristles can easily penetrate light clothing
and/or
skin.
Additional Safety Information
Do not use Type 11 (flaring cup) wheels
on this tool. Using inappropriate accessories
can result in injury.
Air vents often cover moving parts and
should be avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry
or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
A
void prolonged contact with dust from
power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,
and other construction activities. Wear
protective clothing and wash exposed
areas with soap and water. Allowing dust
to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the
skin may promote absorption of harmful
chemicals.
WARNING: When not in use, place grinder
on a stable surface where it will not move
inadvertantly, roll or cause a tripping or
falling hazard. Serious personal injury may
result.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of personal
injury, use extra care when working into a
corner or edge because a sudden, sharp
movement of the tool may be experienced
when the wheel or other accessory contacts
a secondary surface or a surface edge.

by holding a wrench on the flats provided on the
exposed portion of the spindle.
2. Only tighten nut sufficiently to drive the wheel
without slippage.
3. When starting the tool (with a new or replacement
wheel installed) hold the tool in a well protected
area. If the wheel has an undetected crack or
flaw, it should burst
in less than one minute.
Never start tool with a person in line with the
wheel. This includes the operator.
WARNING: Grasp tool firmly with both hands
to maintain control of the tool at start up and
during use and until the wheel or accessory

eht gniyal erof eb pots etelpmoc a ot emoc
tool down.
Put the work in a vise or clamp it securely. Use a
face mask over the nose and mouth if the operation
raises dust. Treat the wheel with respect. do not jam
the wheel into the work or use unnecessary pressure.
Grind only on the face of the wheel (Fig. 2), unless
you have a special wheel specifically make to permit
grinding on the
side of the wheel.
Precautions To Take When Sanding Paint
1. Sanding of lead based paint is NOT
RECOMMENDED due to the difficulty of
controlling the contaminated dust. The greatest
danger of lead poisoning is to children and
pregnant women.
2. Since it is difficult to identify whether or not a
paint contains lead without a chemical analysis,
we recommend the following precautions when
sanding any paint:
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. No children or pregnant women should enter
the work area where the paint sanding is being
done until all clean up is completed.
2. A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all
persons entering the work area. The filter should
be replaced daily or when
ever the wearer has
difficulty breathing.
NOTE: Only those dust masks suitable for
working with lead paint dust and fumes should
be used. Ordinary painting masks do not offer
this protection. See your local hardware dealer
for the proper N.I.O.S.H. approved mask.
3. NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should
be done in the work area to prevent ingesting
contaminated paint particles. Workers should
wash and clean up BEFORE eating, drinking
or smoking. Articles of food, drink, or smoking
should not be left in the work area where dust
would settle on them.
ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY
1. Paint should be removed in such a manner as to
minimize the amount of dust generated.
2. Areas where paint removal is occurring should be
sealed with plastic sheeting of 4 mils thickness.
3. Sanding should be done in a manner to reduce
tracking of paint dust outside the work area.
CLEANING AND DISPOSAL
1. All surfaces in the work area should be vacuumed
and thoroughly cleaned daily for the duration of
the sanding project. Vacuum filter bags should
be changed frequently.
2. Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up and
disposed of along with any dust chips or other
removal debris. They should be plac
ed in sealed
refuse receptacles and disposed of through
regular trash pick-up procedures.
During clean up, children and pregnant women
should be kept away from the immediate work
area.
3. All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by
children should be washed thoroughly before
being used again.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious
personal injury, turn tool off and
disconnect tool from power source before
making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories.
Before reconnecting the tool, depress and
release the switch to ensure that the tool
is off.
Cleaning
WARNING: Blowing dust and grit out of
motor and switch actuator using clean,
dry compressed air is a necessary regular
maintenance procedure. Dust and grit
containing metal particles often accumulate
on interior surfaces and could create an
electrical shock or electrocution if not
frequently cleaned out. It is recommended
that a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
is utilized to further protect the user from
electric shock resulting from the accumulation
of conductive particles. If the tool is
deactivated by the GFCI, unplug the tool and
ENG L I S H
