BENCH GRINDER SAFETY WARNINGS
1. Hold the tool or blade being sharpened firmly to prevent loss of control.
2. NEVER install an abrasive flap wheel or sanding disc on this grinder.
3. ALWAYS replace a cracked grinding wheel immediately.
4. NEVER use damaged or incorrect grindstones. The stone and retaining bolt
were specially designed for your grinder, for optimum performance and
safety of operation. Inspect the condition of the grinding stone before use
and do not use if any damage is noticed.
5. Do not use aluminium oxide wheels when grinding non-ferrous metals such
as aluminium or brass. Use silicon carbide wheels (not included) for grinding
non-ferrous metals.
6. ALWAYS use the rests to steady the workpiece. If the rests are not used, the
torque of the spinning grinding/polishing wheel may pull the workpiece
from your hands.
7. NEVER leave the grinder unattended when it is connected to an electrical
power supply. Switch off the grinder and unplug it before leaving.
8. ALWAYS check for damaged parts. Before further use of the grinder, a
guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to
determine if it would operate properly and perform its intended function.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the tool's operation. A part that is
damaged should be properly repaired or replaced at you local CLARKE
service department. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock,
fire or serious injury.
9. Eye protection manufactured to the current European safety standards
should be worn when operating grinding equipment.
NOTE:
Bench grinders used in industrial environments may be subject to the
requirements of The Provision and Use of Work Equipment regulations
1992 (particularly regarding the training requirement of The Abrasive
Wheels Regulations 1970) or other legislation. If in doubt seek advice.
Please keep these instructions in a safe place for future reference.
