text that are marked with this symbol!

WARNING – Reading the operating instructions will reduce the risk of injury.

Pass on your electrical tool only together with these documents.

General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNING – Read all safety warnings and 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.

ULTI-MATE MANUAL 4

2.1 Work area safety

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

b) Do 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.

2.2 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

(gr

ounded) 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,

arp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

e) When operating a power tool outdoors, u

e an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable

for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

f) 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.

2.3 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 energizing

power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench be

ore turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating

part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing a

d 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.

2.4 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 controlled 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 instructions 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 cutting 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 a

d the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended

could result in a hazardous situation.

ULTI-MATE MANUAL 5

2.5 Ser

a) Have your power tool serviced by an authorized Walter service center. This will ensure that the safety of the

power tool is maintained.

3. Special Safety Instructions

3.1 Safety Warnings Common for Polishing (only for model 6287B).

Operat

ions

a) This power tool is intended to function as a polisher.

ead all 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. The ULTI-MATE POLISHER 6” is to be used as polishing tool only.

b) Operations such as grinding, sanding, wire-brushing, 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.

c) 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.

d) 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.

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) Threaded mounting of accessories must match the GRINDER spindle thread. For accessories mounted by

FLANGES, the arbour hole of the accessory must fit the locating diameter of the FLANGE. 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.

g) 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 a 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.

h) Wear personal protective equ

pment. 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 filtering 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 the power tool by insulated gripp

ng 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 give the operator an electric shock.

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.

I) 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 carrying 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 liqu

d coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants may result in electrocution

or shock.

ULTI-MATE MANUAL 6

3.2 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.

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 o

er kickback or torque reaction during start-up.

The operator can control torque reactions 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.

3.3 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.

3.4 Additional Safety Instructions: WARNING

– Always wear protective goggles.

WARNING – To reduce risk of injury, use only accessories rated at least equal to the maximum speed

marked on the tool.

a) Use only accessories that are specified in the mounting accessories section 5.1 of this manual.

b) Use elastic cushioning layers if they have been supplied with the polishing media and if required.

c) Observe the specifications of the tool or accessory manufacturer! Protect the discs from grease or impacts!

d) Polishing discs should be stored and handled in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

e) Never use bonded abrasive cutting discs or grinding wheels with the ULTI-MATETM Polishing tool.

f) The workpiece must lay flat and be secured against slipping, e.g. using clamps. Large workpieces must be

sufficiently supported.

g) Damaged, eccentric, or vibrating tools must not be used.

h) Pull the plug out of the socket before making any adjustments, converting, or servicing the machine.

i) Secure small workpieces. For example, clamp in a vice.

Press the rotating finishing disc, by

applying gentle pressure, to the area to be finished. Move slowly across the surface

to create an even pattern until the desired finish is achieved.

Maintenance and cleaning

Carbon brushes

The carbon brushes may wear down to the white marking. Replace carbon brushes with spare brushes from

WALTER only. Using other carbon brushes results in loss of warranty. The carbon brushes may be ordered

from WALTER.

You can observe the brush sparks via the air slits. Turn the machine off immediately if the sparks are too

strong. To prevent further significant damage we advise sending the machine to our authorized service

centers for repair.

Cleaning

Ensure that the machine and the ventilation slots are always kept clean so you can work efficiently and safely. In

extreme working conditions, such as finishing metals, conductive dust can collect inside the machine. In that

case we advise the regular use of a compressor to clean the ventilation slits. Also use a grounded switch in the

electric connection.
