■
NEVER reach to pick up a work piece, a piece of scrap, or anything else that is in or
near the grinding path of the wheel.
■
AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND POSITIONS where a sudden slip
could cause your hand to move into the wheel. ALWAYS make sure you have good
balance.
■
NEVER stand or have any part of your body in line with the path of the wheel.
■
DO NOT USE TOOL IF SWITCH DOES NOT TURN IT ON AND OFF. Have defective
switches replaced by an authorized service center.
■
DO NOT TURN THE MOTOR SWITCH ON AND OFF RAPIDLY. This could cause the
wheel to loosen and could create a hazard. Should this ever occur, stand clear and allow
the wheel to come to a complete stop. Disconnect your grinder from the power supply
and securely retighten the wheel nut.
WARNING:
When servicing use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other
parts may create a hazard or cause product damage.
■
USE ONLY FLANGES furnished with this bench grinder.
■
IF ANY PART OF THIS GRINDER IS MISSING or should break, bend, or fail in any
way, or should any electrical component fail to perform properly, shut off the power
switch, remove the machine plug from the power source and have damaged, missing, or
failed parts replaced before resuming operation.
■
MAKE SURE THE GRINDER IS SECURELY MOUNTED as described in the operating
instructions before connecting the tool to a power supply.
■
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE WHEEL NUT. Excessive tightening can cause the wheel
to crack during operation.
■
INSPECT GRINDING WHEEL for visible defects. Check the wheel for cracks. Replace
defective wheels prior to use.
■
ADJUST distance between wheel and work rest to maintain 1/16 in. or less
separation, re-adjustment is necessary as the diameter of the wheel decreases with use.
■
ALWAYS EASE THE WORKPIECE AGAINST THE ABRASIVE WHEEL when starting
to grind. A harsh impact can break the wheel. Use light pressure when starting to grind;
too much pressure on a cold wheel can cause the wheel to crack.
