1. Maintain the tool with care. A tool in good con-
dition is efficient, easier to control and will have
fewer problems.
2. Inspect the tool components periodically. Repair
or replace damaged or worn components.
3. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing
accessories.
4. When servicing, use only identical replacement
parts. Only use accessories intended for use with
this tool. Replace damaged parts immediately.
5. Maintain the tool’s label and name plate. These
carry important information.
6. Wheels should be dressed periodically to mai-
ntain grinding efficiency, especially if they become
clogged from grinding soft metals. Use a grinding
wheel dresser to restore the wheel’s original
shape.
7. Keep all parts in working order. Check to dete-
rmine that the guard or other parts will operate
properly and perform their intended function.
8. A guard or other part that is damaged should be
properly repaired or replaced. Do not perform
makeshift repairs. Use the parts list provided to
order replacement parts.
9. Disconnect tool when changing grinding wheels.
10. Replace a cracked wheel immediately and use
only flanges supplied with the grinder.
Only qualified service personnel should repair the
tool. An mproperly repaired tool may present a
hazard to the user and/or others.
WARNING
!
Your safety depends, on a large part, on the co-
ndition of the wheel during grinding. A wheel in poor
condition may break apart during rotation, injuring
the operator, a bystander and possibly causing
property damage.
To properly care for your wheel, follow these tips:
• Always transport, store and handle wheels with
care. Wheels may be damaged if they are dro-
pped or if heavy objects are stacked on them.
• Select the right grinding wheel for the job. DO
NOT grind material that is not designed for the
wheel.
• Select the right wheel for the machine. A mac-
hine that rotates at a higher RPM than the wheel
WHEEL CARE
rating may cause the wheel to fly apart.
• Mount the wheels properly (see Replacing
Wheels). Never use a wheel with the wrong
arbor size for the grinder.
• DO NOT abuse the wheel by jamming the work
into the grinding wheel with excessive force.
• Grinding on the side of the wheel may cause
wheel damage.
• Dress the grinding wheel when the surface loses
its abrasive quality or bite.
Dressing restores the grinding wheel’s abrasive
quality. Whenever the front surface of the wheel
loses its abrasive qualities (loading or polishing),
then the wheel should be dressed.
To dress the grinding wheel:
1. With the machine plugged into power, stand
to the side of the grinding wheel and move the
red switch to the ON position.
2. Allow the machine to run for 1 full minute to
make sure that the grinding wheel is not going
to fly apart and injure you, then move to the
front of the machine.
3.Hold the dressing tool firmly on the tool rest
with both hands and press it lightly against
the front surface of the grinding wheel as
shown( in Fig10).
4.Move the dressing tool in a side-to-side motion,
while keeping it even with the front surface of
the grinder.
5.Regularly pull the dressing tool away from the
wheel for visual inspection and repeat Steps 3
& 4 until the surface of the wheel appears to be
restored to its normal color and texture.
