ALWAYS

 read and understand the 

user manual before operating the 
grinder. 

 

 

MAKE SURE 

you are wearing safety 

glasses while operating the grinder. 
The small particles becoming airborne 
during grinding operation can seriously 
damage your eyes. 

 

 

ALWAYS 

wear a dust mask or a 

respirator while grinding. The dust 
produced during grinding process can 
lead to serious respiratory problems if 
inhaled. 

 

 

MAKE SURE 

before making any 

adjustments, servicing or installing 
parts, the switch is in the “OFF” 
position, and the cord is un-plugged 
from the power source. 

 

 

MAKE SURE 

the RPM of the wheel 

you are installing on the grinder is 
equal to or higher than the speed of 
the grinder. Operating wheels at a 
higher speed than rated for may cause 
the wheel to lie apart, fly or break. 

 

 

MAKE SURE 

to keep your hands at a 

safe distance from the wheel. 

 

NEVER LEAVE 

the grinder unattended 

while it is running. 

 

 

MAKE SURE

 to do a test on the 

grinding wheels before installation. 
Wheels that do not pass the test are not 
safe to use. See page-8 for details. 

 

 

ALWAYS

 stand to the side of the 

grinder when turning it ON and let the 
wheel reach full speed. Stand at least 
one minute to the side of the grinder 
after startup. A damaged wheel can 
break apart and fly shortly after starting 
the grinder. 

 

 

DO NOT

 grind on the side of the wheel, 

unless the wheel is rated for side 
grinding. 

 

 

ALWAYS 

keep the tool rest within 1/8” 

distance from the wheel while operating 
the grinder. 

 

 

MAKE SURE 

you have read and 

understood all the safety instructions in 
the manual and you are familiar with 
your grinder, before operating it. If you 
fail to follow the instructions given in this 
user manual, serious injury could occur.

 

WARNING 

The safety instructions given above can not be complete because the environment in 
every shop is different. Always consider safety first as it applies to your individual 
working conditions
