Model Wheel diameter No load speed (RPM) Overall length Net weight Spindle thread 9553NB 100mm (4") 11, 000/min 258 mm (10-1/8") 1. Specifications may differ from country to country. Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury. [. . . ] Wheels and other accessories running over rated speed can fly apart and cause injury. Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator. When using depressed center grinding wheels, be sure to use only fiberglassreinforced wheels. Ordinary eye or sun glasses are NOT safety glasses. Check the wheel carefully for cracks or damage before operation. Run the tool (with guard) at no load for about a minute, holding tool away from others. Use only flanges specified for this tool. Be careful not to damage the spindle, the flange (especially the installing surface) or the lock nut. Damage to these parts could result in wheel breakage. NEVER use tool with wood cutting blades or other sawblades. Such blades when used on a grinder frequently kick and cause loss of control leading to personal injury. Do not wrap cord around your arm or wrist. If control of tool is lost, cord may become wrapped around you and cause personal injury. Make sure the wheel is not contacting the workpiece before the switch is turned on. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or wobbling that could indicate poor installation or a poorly balanced wheel. Hold the tool so that sparks fly away from you and other persons or flammable materials. Do not touch the workpiece immediately after operation; it may be extremely hot and could burn your skin. ALWAYS wear proper apparel including long sleeve shirts, leather gloves and shop aprons to protect skin from contact with hot grindings. Use of this tool to grind or sand some products, paints and wood could expose user to dust containing hazardous substances. WARNING: MISUSE or failure to follow the safety rules stated in this instruction manual may cause serious personal injury. [. . . ] Use of damaged brush could increase potential for injury from contact with broken brush wires. Unplug tool and place it upside down allowing easy access to spindle. Thread wire cup brush onto spindle and tighten with supplied wrench. When using brush, avoid applying too much pressure which causes over bending of wires, leading to premature breakage. [. . . ]
