GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Operating a Bench Grinder can be dangerous if safety and common sense are ignored. The operator must be familiar with the operation of the tool. Read this manual to understand this Bench Grinder. DO NOT operate this Bench Grinder if you do not fully understand the limita- tions of this tool. DO NOT modify this Bench Grinder in any way.

BEFORE USING THE BENCH GRINDER

To avoid serious injury and damage to the tool, read and follow all of the Safety and Operating Instructions

before operating the Bench Grinder.

Some dust created by using power tools contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause

cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• Lead from lead-based paints.

• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other masonry products.

• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce

your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well- ventilated area, and work with approved safety

equipment, such as those dust masks that are spe- cially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

READ the entire Owner's Manual. LEARN how to use the tool for its intended applications.

GROUND ALL TOOLS. If the tool is supplied with a 3-prong plug, it must be plugged into a 3-contact electrical receptacle. The 3rd prong is used to ground the tool and provide protection against

accidental electric shock. DO NOT remove the 3rd prong. See Grounding Instructions on page 5.

AVOID A DANGEROUS WORKING ENVIRON- MENT. DO NOT use electrical tools in a damp

environment or expose them to rain.

DO NOT use electrical tools in the presence of flammable liquids or gasses.

ALWAYS keep the work area clean, well lit, and organized. DO NOT work in an environment with

floor surfaces that are slippery from debris, grease,

and wax.

KEEP VISITORS AND CHILDREN AWAY. DO NOT permit people to be in the immediate work area,

especially when the electrical tool is operating.

DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL to perform an opera-

tion for which it was not designed. It will do a safer

and higher quality job by only performing operations

for which the tool was intended.

WEAR PROPER CLOTHING. DO NOT wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, or jewelry. These items

can get caught in the machine during operations and pull the operator into the moving parts. The user must wear a protective cover on their hair, if

the hair is long, to prevent it from contacting any

moving parts.

10.

ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION. Any power tool can throw debris into the eyes during opera- tions, which could cause severe and permanent

eye damage. ALWAYS wear Safety Goggles (that

comply with ANSI standard Z87.1) when operating

power tools. Safety Goggles are available at Sears

Retail Stores.

11.

WEAR A DUST MASK TO PREVENT INHALING

DANGEROUS DUST OR PARTICLES.

12.

ALWAYS UNPLUG THE TOOL FROM THE ELEC-

TRICAL RECEPTACLE when making adjustments,

changing parts or performing any maintenance.

13.

KEEP PROTECTIVE GUARDS IN PLACE AND IN

WORKING ORDER.

14.

AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Make sure that the power switch is in the "OFF" position before

plugging in the power cord to the electrical

receptacle.

15.

REMOVE ALL MAINTENANCE TOOLS from the

immediate area prior to turning "ON" the Bench

Grinder.

16.USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.

Use of incorrect or improper accessories could cause serious injury to the operator and cause damage to the tool. If in doubt, check the instruction manual that comes with that particular accessory.

17. NEVER LEAVE A RUNNING TOOL UNATTENDED. Turn the power switch to the "OFF" position. DO

NOT leave the tool until it has come to a complete stop.

18. DO NOT STAND ON A TOOL. Serious injury could result if the tool tips over or you accidentally contact

the tool.

19. DO NOT store anything above or near the tool where anyone might try to stand on the tool to

reach it.

20. MAINTAIN YOUR BALANCE. DO NOT extend yourself over the tool. Wear oil resistant rubbersoled

shoes. Keep floor clear of debris, grease, and wax.

21. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Always keep tools clean and in good working order. Keep all blades

and tool bits sharp.

22. EACH AND EVERY TIME, CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS PRIOR TO USING THE TOOL. Carefully

check all guards to see that they operate properly, are not damaged, and perform their intended func-

tions. Check for alignment, binding or breaking of moving parts. A guard or other part that is damaged

should be immediately repaired or replaced.

GUIDELINES FOR

EXTENSION CORDS

If you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure it is marked with the suffix "W-A" ("W" in Canada) to

indicate that it is acceptable for outdoor use.

Be sure your extension cord is properly sized, and in good electrical condition. Always replace a damaged

extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it.

24 DO NOT OPERATE TOOL IF UNDER THE INFLU-

ENCE OF DRUGS OR ALCOHOL.

25. SECURE ALL WORK. Use clamps or jigs to secure the workpiece. This is safer than attempting to hold

the workpiece with your hands.

26. USE A PROPER EXTENSION CORD IN GOOD CONDITION. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current

your product will draw. The table at right shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and

nameplate amperage rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number,

the larger diameter of the extension cord. If in doubt of the proper size of an extension cord, use a short-

er and thicker cord. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in a loss of power and

overheating. USE ONLY A 3-WIRE EXTENSION CORD THAT HAS A 3-PRONG GROUNDING

PLUG AND A 3-POLE RECEPTACLE THAT ACCEPTS THE TOOL'S PLUG.

Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.

IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAK- DOWN, grounding provides the path of least resistance

for electric current and reduces the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord that

has an equipment grounding conductor and a ground- ing plug. The plug MUST be plugged into a matching electrical receptacle that is properly installed and ground-

ed in accordance with ALL local codes and ordinances.

DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED. If it will not fit the electrical receptacle, have the proper electrical

receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.

IMPROPER ELECTRICAL CONNECTION of the equip- ment grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with the green insulation (with or without yellow stripes) is the equipment grounding conductor. DO NOT connect the equipment grounding

conductor to a live terminal.

CHECK with a qualified electrician or service personnel if you do not completely understand the grounding instructions, or if you are not sure the tool is properly grounded.

USE ONLY A 3-WIRE EXTENSION CORD THAT HAS A 3-PRONG GROUNDING PLUG AND A 3-POLE

RECEPTACLE THAT ACCEPTS THE TOOL'S PLUG.

REPLACE A DAMAGED OR WORN CORD IMMEDIATELY.

This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an electrical receptacle as shown in FIGURE A. FIGURE A

shows a 3-wire electrical plug and electrical receptacle

that has a grounding conductor. If a properly grounded

electrical receptacle is not available, an adapter as shown in FIGURE B can be used to temporarily con- nect this plug to a 2-contact ungrounded receptacle. The adapter has a rigid lug extending from it that MUST be connected to a permanent earth ground, such as a properly grounded receptacle box. THIS ADAPTER IS

PROHIBITED IN CANADA.

CAUTION: In all cases, make certain the electrical receptacle in question is properly grounded. If you are

not sure have a certified electrician check the electrical receptacle.

SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

FOR BENCH GRINDERS

The operation of any grinder can result in debris being thrown into your eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. ALWAYS wear Safety Goggles (that comply with ANSI standard Z87.1 ) when operating the grinder. Safety Goggles are available at Sears Retail Stores. Keep your thumbs and fingers away from the grinding

wheels.

ALWAYS USE THE EYE SHIELDS AND WHEEL GUARDS provided with the grinder.

REPLACE A CRACKED OR DAMAGED GRIND- ING WHEEL IMMEDIATELY. A damaged wheel can

discharge debris at a high velocity towards the operator. Carefully handle the grinding wheels since they are abrasive. Prior to replacing a grinding

wheel, check it for cracks. DO NOT remove the blotter or label on both sides of the grinding wheel.

Tighten the spindle nut just enough to hold the grinding wheel firmly to the Bench Grinder. Do not over-tighten the nut. Excessive clamping force can damage the grinding wheel. Only use the wheel flanges provided with the grinder. When selecting a replacement grinding wheel, verify that the grinding wheel has a higher R.P.M. rating than the maximum

R.P.M. of the Bench Grinder.

THE BENCH GRINDER WILL PRODUCE SPARKS

AND DEBRIS DURING GRINDING OPERATIONS. Be sure that there are not any flammable materials

in the vicinity. Frequently clean grinding dust from

the back of the Bench Grinder.

NEVER FORCE THE WORKPIECE AGAINST A

GRINDING WHEEL, especially if the wheel is cold. Apply the workpiece slowly, allowing the grinding

wheel an opportunity to warm up. This will minimize the chance of wheel breakage. DO NOT grind using the sides of the grinding wheels. DO NOT apply

coolant directly to the grinding wheel.

KEEP ALL WHEEL GUARDS IN PLACE. DO NOT

USE THE BENCH GRINDER WITH THE WHEEL

GUARDS REMOVED.

KEEP THE TOOL RESTS FIRMLY TIGHTENED.

ALWAYS USE THE SUPPLIED WHEEL DRESSER

TO RESURFACE THE FACE OF THE GRINDING

WHEEL.

10.

REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES.

Form habit of checking to see that keys and adjust-

ing wrenches are removed from tool before turning

it on.

11. USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force tool or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.

12. DO NOT overtighten wheel nut.

THE DIAMETER OF THE GRINDING WHEELS WILL DECREASE WITH USE. Adjust the tool rests

and spark arrestors to maintain a distance of 1/16" from the wheel.

DO NOT STAND IN FRONT OF THE BENCH GRINDER WHEN STARTING IT. Stand to one side of the Bench Grinder and turn it "ON". Wait at the

side for one minute until the grinder comes up to full speed. There is always a possibility that debris from a damaged grinding wheel may be discharged

towards the operator.
