The grinder should always be started and allowed to
run at idle speed for on full minute before applying work to the grinding wheel.
• Never grind on the side of the wheel.
Always grind on the face of the wheel only.
• Never apply coolant directly to the grinding wheel.

with the work piece pressed against the grinding wheel or
other attachments (wire brushes, buffing wheels, etc.)

where an unexpected or
sudden slip that could cause your hand or fingers to move into the grinding wheel, wire brush,
buffing wheel, etc.

or should any electrical component fail to perform properly, shut off the switch. Remove the
machine plug from the power source and have damaged, missing, or failed parts replaced
before resuming operation.
