GENERAL SAFETY GUIDELINES
BEFORE USING THIS POWER
TOOL
• Operate in a safe work environment. Keep
your work area clean, well lit and free of
distractions.
• Keep anyone not wearing the appropriate s
afety equipment away from the work area.
• Store tools properly in a safe and dry location.
Keep tools out of the reach of children.
• Do not install or use in the presence of flam-
mable gases, dust or liquids.
• Always wear impact safety goggles that
provide front and side protection for the eyes.
Wear a full-face shield if your work creates
metal filings or wood chips. (Eye protection
equipment should comply with ANSI Z87.1
standards.)
• Wear gloves that provide protection based on
the work materials or to reduce the effects of
tool vibration.
• Non-skid footwear is recommended to main-
tain footing and balance in the work environment.
• Wear the appropriate rated dust mask or
respirator.
• Do not operate any tool when tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol or medications.
• Avoid wearing clothes or jewelry that can b-
ecome entangled with the moving parts of a
tool. Keep long hair covered or bound.
• Do not overreach when operating the tool.
Proper footing and balance enables better
control in unexpected situations.
• Securely hold the material using both hands.
Applying the material to the grinder with only
one hand can result in a loss of control.
• Never use a tool with a cracked or worn gri-
nding wheel. Change the grinding wheel
before using.
• Replace cracked wheel immediately. Use only
flanges supplied with the grinder.
• Clean dust and debris from beneath the gri-
nding wheels frequently.
• Do not start the tool if the grinding wheel is in
contact with the workpiece.
• Always ensure the safety guards are attached
correctly and do not operate the bench grinder
without the guards attached. Adjust the dista-
nce between the wheel and the tool rest to
maintain a 1/16 in. or less separation as the
diameter of the wheel decreases with use.
• Use an appropriate dust respirator when working
for an extended period of time. This will help
prevent breathing in the fine dust created while
grinding.
• Do not grind on the sides of grinding wheels
unless they are specifically designed for that
purpose.
• Before using the tool on the workpiece, run the
tool at the highest speed, without a load, for at
least 30 seconds in a safe position. Stop im-
mediately if there is any vibration or wobbling
that could indicate poor installation or a poorly
balanced grinding wheel. Check the tool to
determine the cause.
• Do not allow the motor to overload or overheat.
Take breaks to rest the tool.
• Do not subject the grinding wheel to any lateral
pressure as it may damage the tool or cause
it to kickback.
ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY
RULES
1. Only use a grinding wheel with the correct arbor
size and shape that matches the grinder’s
spindle.
2. Ensure the grinding wheel has a clean edge.
Check the grinding wheel for wear or chipping
and replace if necessary.
3. Never install more than one grinding wheel at
a time unless the tool and wheels are design-
ed for that purpose.
4. A large amount of sparks will be created when
working with a grinding wheel. Hold the tool
so that sparks fly away from you and other
persons or flammable materials. Have a fully
charged fire extinguisher present.in the event
of a fire.
5. Do not subject the grinding wheel to any
lateral pressure as it may damage the
tool or cause it to kickback.
