Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the tool accidentally.
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable
platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of
control.
Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools,
with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model.
Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may create a risk of injury when used on another
tool.
Never leave tool running unattended.
Examine wheels for damage before operating, and replace if any damage is found.
Do not overtighten wheel nuts.
Use only wheel flanges furnished with bench grinder. Use of other flanges may cause damage
or breakage to the wheel and result in injury to the operator.
Do not force work against the wheel. Excessive pressure may cause damage or breakage of the
wheel, resulting in injury to the operator or bystanders.
Always use guards and eye shields.
Use wheel suitable for speed of bench grinder.
Do not operate bench grinder when flammable fumes are present. Sparks from the wheel or
motor brush could ignite fumes.
Tighten grinding wheel lock nuts, securing bolts and all clamps and guards.
During each start-up, stand to one side of the grinder and switch it ‘On’. Let the grinder
operate at full speed for approximately one minute so that any undetected flaws or cracks
will become apparent.
Always use proper guard with grinding wheel. A guard protects operator from broken
wheel fragments.
Keep hands clear of grinding wheels.
Never reach behind or beneath the grinding wheels.
Unplug from power supply before adjusting or servicing. The grinding wheels continue to
rotate after the tool is switched off. Always allow wheels to stop before adjusting or
servicing.
When fitting a new grinding wheel, always check that the stated maximum RPM meets or
exceeds that stated on the grinder. Also check the new wheel for damage, such as flaws or
cracks. If the wheel appears satisfactory, fit it to the grinder.
When a new grinding wheel has been fitted, stand to one side of the grinder and switch it
‘On’. Let the grinder operate at full speed for approximately one minute so that any
undetected flaws or cracks will become apparent.
DO NOT attempt to cut anything with the grinding wheel.
When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the
maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow
maintenance instructions may create a risk of electric shock or injury.
WARNING! Replace cracked grinding wheels immediately.
