To operate this or any power tool safely and efficiently, it is essential to become as familiar with it as possible. The time you invest before you begin to use your Model G1036 will be time well spent.

DO NOT operate this machine until you are completely familiar with the contents of this manual. Serious personal injury may occur if used without proper training.

I. INTRODUCTION

G1036 Slow-Speed Grinder -4-

13. DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper footing

and balance at all times.

14. MAINTAIN TOOLS IN TOP CONDITION.

Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.

15. DISCONNECT TOOLS FROM POWER

before servicing and when changing accessories.

16. AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Make

sure the switch is in the “OFF” position before plugging in the cord.

17. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Do not operate

the machine until you are certain it is in perfect running condition.

18. NEVER LEAVE THE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED - TURN POWER OFF. Do

not leave the tool until it comes to a full stop.

19. DO NOT OPERATE THE TOOL IF USING DRUGS, ALCOHOL, OR MEDICATION.

20. DO NOT WORK IN HASTE or operate

machine if you are fatigued.

21. IF THERE IS SOMETHING YOU DO NOT KNOW OR UNDERSTAND ABOUT THIS TOOL, DO NOT OPERATE IT! Ask for help first. Confusion

can lead to disaster.

22. BAD HABITS ARE DANGEROUS. Review all safety procedures often.

1. KNOW YOUR POWER TOOL. Read the

owner’s manual carefully. Learn the tool’s applications and limitations, as well as its particular hazards.

2. KEEP ALL GUARDS IN PLACE and in

working order.

3. GROUND ALL TOOLS. If an adapter is

used to accommodate a two-prong receptacle, the adapter plug must be attached to a known ground. Never remove the grounding prong.

4. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Make it a habit to check that

keys and wrenches are removed from the machine before turning it on.

5. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents.

6. AVOID DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS.

Do not use power tools in damp or wet locations or expose them to rain. Keep your work area well lighted.

7. KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY.

All children and visitors should be kept a safe distance away from your work area.

8. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD-PROOF with padlocks, master switches, or by removable starter keys.

9. DO NOT FORCE TOOL. Tools work better and safer when they are allowed to perform at their own speed.

10. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, or jewelry that can get caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear must be worn. Long hair should be tied back or wear a hat.

11. NEVER STAND ON, OR LEAN ON THE TOOL. Doing so could cause injury.

12. USE SAFETY GLASSES AND EAR PROTECTION. Also use a DUST MASK if the

operation is dusty.
