SPECIFIC RULES FOR SHARPENERS
1. TOOL PURPOSE. This sharpener is designed for sharpening and honing cutting tools, using the appropri-
ate accessories. Using the machine for any other purpose for which it is not designed may result in serious
injuries, machine damage and voiding of the warranty.
2. DANGER: FIRE HAZARD. Do not grind or polish magnesium or magnesium alloys.
3. PERSONAL SAFETY. Always wear ANSI Z87.1-approved glasses with side shields, hearing protection and a
dust mask. DO NOT wear loose clothing or jewelry as they might get drawn in by the tool. Tie back long hair.
4. OPERATING ENVIRONMENT. Never grind near flammable gas or liquids. Sparks may ignite any such sub-
stances nearby.
5. ELECTRIC CORDS. Keep cords away from heat, oil, sharp edges, and moving parts of the tool. Have an
electrician replace or repair damaged or worn cords immediately.
6. TOOL & ACCESSORIES INSPECTION. Before operation, check the tool and accessories for any damage or
missing parts. Do not use the tool if any part is missing or damaged.
7. TOOL ASSEMBLY. Do not operate this tool until it is completely assembled and installed according to the
instructions. Make sure all adjustments are correct and all connections are tight. Keep all guards in place.
8. PREVENTING ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Make sure the power switch is in the OFF position prior to plugging in
the machine. Always make sure the power switch is in the OFF position and the machine is unplugged when
doing any cleaning, adjustments, assembly, setup operations, or when not in use.
9. GRINDING WHEEL SAFETY
• Only use grinding wheels rated for a speed higher than 120 RPM (maximum RPM of the tool).
• Inspect wheels for cracks or fragments before starting the machine. Replace damaged wheels immediately.
Never use a questionable grinding wheel, as the RPM of the machine can send broken wheel fragments flying
at high speeds.
• Do not use a wheel that vibrates. If a wheel vibrates, it may be that the bearings of the shaft need replacing .
• Make sure the grinding wheel is dressed properly and evenly.
• Check that the grinding stone can rotate smoothly before starting the machine.
• The grinding wheel is for grinding. Never attempt to cut anything with the grinding wheel.
10. WATER RESERVOIR. Make sure the water reservoir is filled with water to the maximum fill line before
operation. Check the water level regularly and refill as necessary. Never attempt to sharpen a blade when
the grinding stone is dry.
WARNING:
Do not let comfort or familiarity with the product replace strict adherence to product
safety rules. Failure to follow the safety instructions may result in serious personal injury.
