UNPACKING
Carton should be handled with care to avoid damage from drop-
ping, bumping, etc. Store and unpack carton with correct side up. If
any damage or loss has occurred, claim must be filed with carrier
immediately. Check for completeness. Immediately report missing
parts to dealer.
To be certain the grinding wheels have not been damaged in ship-
ment, strike the edges slightly with a metal object. A ringing sound
indicates a good wheel, but a dull noise may signal a fracture.
WARNING:
If you suspect a wheel of being fractured, replace it
immediately. Fractured wheels may shatter, causing serious injury.
