PINCH AND CRUSH HAZARD!
• The Eastwood Elite 8” Heavy Duty Bead Roller consists of heavy metal components which can present a hand/finger pinch hazard and
cause potentially serious injuries if dropped. Avoid pinching hands while handling. The use of safety shoes is strongly recommended.
Keep fingers and hands away from moving parts when operating.
CUT HAZARD!
• Handling sharp metal can cause serious cuts. Wear thick, well-fitting work gloves to prevent cuts from handling sharp metal.
EYE INJURY HAZARD!
• Metal particles can be ejected from the metal surface when forming. Sheet metal edges and corners are sharp and can injure eyes.
Always wear ANSI approved eye protection when operating this tool.
• Before beginning ANY work with this tool, it is absolutely necessary that it be installed in a vice properly secured to a sturdy,
workbench anchored to the floor or wall.
• Strenuous physical force may need to be applied to the Eastwood 8” Heavy Duty Bead Roller during use. Failure to ensure
proper footing can quickly result in a fall which could inflict serious personal injury or property damage. Always work in a clean,
uncluttered environment.
• Be sure there is sufficient working room around the tool to allow for safe handling of various sizes of metal.
• Excessive resistance while operating could indicate a defect with the workpiece material or broken or damaged Eastwood 8”

excessive scale or remaining coatings. Clean or repair as necessary or discard and begin with a new piece. Also inspect Eastwood
