WARNING:  
For your personal safety, READ and UNDERSTAND before using.  
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.  
 
5. Avoid body contact with grounded sur-  
faces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and  
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of  
electric shock if your body is grounded.  
be used for appropriate conditions. Ordinary  
eye or sun glasses are NOT eye protection.  
Tool Use and Care  
15. Use clamps or other practical way to  
secure and support the workpiece to a  
stable platform. Holding the work by hand or  
against your body is unstable and may lead  
to loss of control.  
6. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet  
conditions. Water entering a power tool will  
increase the risk of electric shock.  
7. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord  
to carry the tools or pull the plug from an  
outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil,  
sharp edges or moving parts. Replace  
damaged cords immediately. Damaged  
cords increase the risk of electric shock.  
16. Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for  
your application. The correct tool will do the  
job better and safer at the rate for which it is  
designed.  
17. Do not use tool if switch does not turn it  
on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled  
with the switch is dangerous and must be  
repaired.  
8. When operating a power tool outside, use  
an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A”  
or “W”. These cords are rated for outdoor  
use and reduce the risk of electric shock.  
18. Disconnect the plug from the power  
source before making any adjustments,  
changing accessories, or storing the tool.  
Such preventive safety measures reduce the  
risk of starting the tool accidentally.  
Personal Safety  
9. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and  
use common sense when operating a  
power tool. Do not use tool while tired or  
under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or  
medication. A moment of inattention while  
operating power tools may result in serious  
personal injury.  
19. Store idle tools out of reach of children  
and other untrained persons. Tools are  
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.  
20. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting  
tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained  
tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely  
to bind and are easier to control.  
10. Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth-  
ing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep  
your hair, clothing, and gloves away from  
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long  
hair can be caught in moving parts.  
21. Check for misalignment or binding of  
moving parts, breakage of parts, and any  
other condition that may affect the tools  
operation. If damaged, have the tool ser-  
viced before using. Many accidents are  
caused by poorly maintained tools.  
11. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch  
is off before plugging in. Carrying tools with  
your finger on the switch or plugging in tools  
that have the switch on invites accidents.  
12. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches  
before turning the tool on. A wrench or a  
key that is left attached to a rotating part of  
the tool may result in personal injury.  
22. Use only accessories that are recom-  
mended by the manufacturer for your  
model. Accessories that may be suitable for  
one tool, may become hazardous when used  
on another tool.  
13. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing  
and balance at all times. Proper footing and  
balance enables better control of the tool in  
unexpected situations.  
SERVICE  
23. Tool service must be performed only by  
qualified repair personnel. Service or main-  
tenance performed by unqualified personnel  
could result in a risk of injury.  
14. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye  
protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety  
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must  
3
 
24. When servicing a tool, use only identical  
replacement parts. Follow instructions in  
the Maintenance section of this manual.  
Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow  
Maintenance instructions may create a risk of  
electric shock or injury.  
USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD: Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.  
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your  
product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of  
power and overheating. Table 1 shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and  
nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage num-  
ber, the heavier the cord.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES  
USB038-5  
DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained from  
repeated use) replace strict adherence to sander safety rules. If  
you use this tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious  
personal injury.  
1. Accessories must be rated for at least the  
speed recommended on the tool warning  
label. Wheels and other accessories running  
over rated speed can fly apart and cause  
injury.  
4. Use only flanges specified for this tool.  
5. NEVER use tool with wood cutting blades  
or other sawblades. Such blades when  
used on a sander frequently kick and  
cause loss of control leading to personal  
injury.  
2. 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 livewire will  
make exposed metal parts of the tool live”  
and shock the operator.  
6. Hold the tool firmly.  
7. Keep hands away from rotating parts.  
8. 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.  
3. Always use safety glasses or goggles.  
Ordinary eye or sun glasses are NOT  
safety glasses.

9. Make sure the abrasive disc or the wheel  
is not contacting the workpiece before the  
switch is turned on.  
IF USED AS A GRINDER  
16. Always use proper guard with grinding  
wheel. A guard protects operator from bro-  
ken wheel fragments.  
10. Watch out for flying sparks. Hold the tool  
so that sparks fly away from you and other  
persons or flammable materials.  
17. When using depressed center grinding  
wheels, be sure to use only fiberglass-  
reinforced wheels.  
11. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the  
tool only when hand-held.  
18. Check the wheel carefully for cracks or  
12. Do not touch the workpiece immediately  
after operation; it may be extremely hot  
and could burn your skin.  
damage  
before  
operation.  
Replace  
cracked or damaged wheel immediately.  
Run the tool (with guard) at no load for  
about a minute, holding tool away from  
others. If wheel is flawed, it will likely sep-  
arate during this test.  
13. Ventilate your work area adequately when  
you perform sanding operations.  
14. ALWAYS wear proper apparel including  
long sleeve shirts, leather gloves and  
shop aprons to protect skin from contact  
with hot grindings.  
19. Before using the tool on an actual work-  
piece, let it run for a while. Watch for  
vibration or wobbling that could indicate  
poor installation or a poorly balanced  
wheel.  
15. Use of this tool to grind or sand some  
products, paints and wood could expose  
user to dust containing hazardous sub-  
stances. Use appropriate respiratory pro-  
tection.  
20. Use the specified surface of the wheel to  
perform the grinding.

OPERATION  
001130  
WARNING:  
It should never be necessary to force the tool. The  
weight of the tool applies adequate pressure. Forcing  
and excessive pressure could cause dangerous wheel  
breakage.  
15˚  
ALWAYS replace wheel if tool is dropped while grinding.  
NEVER bang or hit grinding disc or wheel onto work.  
Avoid bouncing and snagging the wheel, especially  
when working corners, sharp edges etc. This can cause  
loss of control and kickback.  
NEVER use tool with wood cutting blades and other  
sawblades. Such blades when used on a grinder  
frequently kick and cause loss of control leading to  
personal injury.  
CAUTION:  
After operation, always switch off the tool and wait until  
the wheel has come to a complete stop before putting  
the tool down.  
9
 
ALWAYS hold the tool firmly with one hand on rear handle  
and the other on the side handle. Turn the tool on and then  
apply the wheel or disc to the workpiece.  
In general, keep the edge of the wheel or disc at an angle of  
about 15 degrees to the workpiece surface.  
During the break-in period with a new wheel, do not work the  
grinder in the B direction or it will cut into the workpiece.  
Once the edge of the wheel has been rounded off by use, the  
wheel may be worked in both A and B direction.
