SAFETY INFORMATION
General Power Tool Safety Warnings
WARNING
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specications provided with
this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric
shock, re 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.
Work Area Safety
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks, which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
Electrical Safety
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
any adaptor plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodied plugs and matching
outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
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.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
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.
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.
If operating 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.
Personal Safety
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 inuence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.

Specic Safety Warnings for Polisher
Safety Warnings Common for Polishing:
This power tool is intended to function as a polisher. Read all safety warnings,
instructions, illustrations and specications provided with this power tool. Failure to
follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, re and/or serious injury.
Operations such as grinding, sanding, wire brushing or cutting-off are not
recommended to be performed with this power tool. Operations for which the power tool
was not designed may create a hazard and cause personal injury.
Do not use accessories which are not specically designed and recommended by the
tool manufacturer. 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 y apart.
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.
Threaded mounting of accessories must match the polisher spindle thread. For
accessories mounted by anges, the arbor hole of the accessory must t the locating
diameter of the ange. Accessories that do not match the mounting hardware of the power
tool will run out of balance, vibrate excessively and may cause loss of control.
Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use inspect the accessory such as
abrasive wheels 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 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 break apart during this test time.
8
SAFETY INFORMATION
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 ying debris generated by
various operations. The dust mask or respirator must be capable of ltrating particles
generated by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may cause hearing
loss.
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 y away and cause injury beyond immediate area of operation.
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.
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.
Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your side. Accidental contact with the
spinning accessory could snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into your body.
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.
Do not operate the power tool near ammable materials. Sparks could ignite these
materials.
Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants
may result in electrocution or shock.
Kickback and Related Warnings
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 power tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions
and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.
Maintain a rm 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.
Never place your hand near the rotating accessory. Accessory may kickback over your
hand.
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.
Use special care when working corners, sharp edges etc. Avoid bouncing and
snagging the accessory. Corners, sharp edges or bouncing tend to snag the rotating
accessory and cause loss of control or kickback.
9
SAFETY INFORMATION
Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or toothed saw blade. Such blades
create frequent kickback and loss of control.
Safety Warnings Specic for Polishing Operations:
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 ngers or snag on the workpiece.
Additional Safety Warnings
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury, when working in dusty situations, wear appropriate respiratory
protection or use an OSHA compliant dust extraction solution.
Always use common sense and be cautious when using tools. It is not possible to anticipate
every situation that could result in a dangerous outcome.
Do not use this tool if you do not understand these operating instructions or you feel
the work is beyond your capability; contact Milwaukee Tool or a trained professional for
additional information or training.

8. Polishing
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury, always wear proper eye protection marked to comply with ANSI
Z87.1. When working in dusty situations, wear appropriate respiratory protection or use an
OSHA-compliant dust-extraction solution.
Always use the side or the bail handle for proper control.
Move the polisher back and forth in long, sweeping strokes. Too much pressure, the wrong
angle, or improper motion may cause swirl marks or burning.
For detailed polishing instructions, read the instructions provided with the nishes, waxes, and
polishes.
Preventing Burning Through Paint
It is easy to burn through the paint on a surface. This can occur if you polish at too high a
speed or if you allow the polishing pad to stay in one spot for even a short period of time. To
prevent burning through paint, use very light pressure and keep the polisher moving constantly,
especially when working near edges or where there are abrupt changes in the contour of the
work surface. Be particularly careful when using higher speeds, which are more likely to burn
through paint.
Preventing Snagging
Snagging occurs when polishing pads get caught on rough edges of a work surface. Snagging
can cause the tool to suddenly “kick back” and it may cause the pad to burn through the paint.
To reduce the risk of snagging, use the polisher at low speeds when polishing rough surfaces.
For tricky areas such as near trim or between a mirror and window on a car, do not take
chances with a polisher. Polish these surfaces by hand.
WARNING
Avoid snagging on rough surfaces to reduce the possibility of “kick back.”

Guarde todas las advertencias e instrucciones para referencia futura
El término “herramienta eléctrica” que aparece en las advertencias hace referencia a la
herramienta eléctrica que se conecta a la línea principal (con cable) o a la herramienta
eléctrica que funciona a batería (inalámbrica).
Seguridad en el área de trabajo
Mantenga el área de trabajo limpia y bien iluminada. Las áreas desordenadas u oscuras
aumentan las posibilidades de accidentes.
No utilice herramientas eléctricas en atmósferas en las que exista riesgo de
explosión, por ejemplo, en presencia de líquidos inamables, gases o polvo. Las
herramientas eléctricas producen chispas que podrían encender el polvo o humo.
Mantenga a los niños y a otras personas alejados mientras utiliza una herramienta
eléctrica. Las distracciones pueden hacerle perder el control.
Seguridad eléctrica
Los enchufes de las herramientas eléctricas deben encajar en el tomacorriente. No
modique el enchufe de ninguna manera. No utilice ningún enchufe adaptador con
herramientas eléctricas con puesta a tierra. Los enchufes sin modicaciones y que
encajan en los tomacorrientes reducen el riesgo de descarga eléctrica.
Evite el contacto del cuerpo con supercies conectadas a tierra, como tuberías,
radiadores, extractores o refrigeradores. Si su cuerpo tiene conexión a tierra, existe un
riesgo mayor de sufrir una descarga eléctrica.
No exponga las herramientas eléctricas a la lluvia o a condiciones de humedad. Si
ingresa agua en una herramienta eléctrica, aumenta el riesgo de descarga eléctrica.
No maltrate el cable. Nunca use el cable para transportar, jalar ni desenchufar la
herramienta eléctrica. Mantenga el cable alejado del calor, el aceite, los bordes
losos o las piezas en movimiento. Los cables dañados o enredados aumentan el riesgo
de descarga eléctrica.
Si utiliza una herramienta eléctrica en exteriores, use una extensión eléctrica
apropiada para uso en exteriores. Usar un cable apto para exteriores reduce el riesgo de
sufrir una descarga eléctrica.
Si es inevitable utilizar una herramienta eléctrica en un lugar húmedo, use un
suministro protegido con un interruptor diferencial residual (RCD, por sus siglas en
inglés). El uso de un RCD disminuye el riesgo de descargas eléctricas.
Seguridad personal
Manténgase alerta, preste atención a lo que hace y utilice el sentido común cuando
utilice una herramienta eléctrica. No use una herramienta eléctrica si está cansado
o bajo los efectos de drogas, alcohol o medicamentos. Un momento de desatención
mientras opera herramientas eléctricas puede provocar lesiones personales graves.
