SAFETY For Your Own Safety Read Instruction Manual Before Operating This Equipment The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions. This manual uses a series of symbols and signal words which are intended to convey the level of importance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember that safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper accident prevention measures.
Safety Instructions For Power Tools 10. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD for the tool. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. Conductor size should be in accordance with the chart below. The amperage rating should be listed on the motor or tool nameplate. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Your extension cord must also contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair or replace extension cords if they become damaged.

To protect yourself, always wear American National Standards Institute (ANSI) approved safety glasses or goggles when operating this equipment. To protect your hands, always wear leather hand protection when operating this shear. Test Run Your Model H2867 has a slide style ON/OFF switch as shown in Figure 2.
Operation If you are cutting a large dimension of sheet metal, use a large flat working surface such as a workbench to support the work as shown in Figure 3. Once the cut lines have been determined, turn the shears ON and begin the cut. Figure 3. Cutting large stock. If you need to trim small pieces of sheet metal, use the shear in a stationary position while pulling the metal through the shears, towards your body as shown in Figure 4. Avoid letting your fingers get to close to the moving jaws.
MAINTENANCE Oiling Shear Periodically oil your new Grizzly shear to help maintain its useful life. Place one drop of light machine oil in the shear jaws (as shown in Figure 5) before every use. Wipe off any excess oil to avoid dust build-up. Slide the old brushes out of the slots and replace with the fresh set as shown in Figure 7.
