GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION

To operate this tool, read this instruction manual and all the labels affixed to the bench grinder carefully before using. Keep this manual available for future reference. Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert and knowing how your bench grinder works.

1. WORK AREA

Keep the work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.Do not use the tool in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.Keep bystanders, visitors, and children away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2. ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. If the tool electrically malfunctions or breaks down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user. Avoid contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electrical shock if your body is grounded.Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tool or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock. When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or "W'. These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.

3. PERSONAL SAFETY

Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use the tool when you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Wear protective hair netting to contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Rubber gloves and non-skid footwear are recommended when working outdoors. Avoid accidental starting. Make sure the switch is off before plugging in. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on invites accidents. Remove adjusting keys or switches before turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.

4. TOOL USE AND CARE

Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application.Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. 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. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons.

GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION

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.Check for misalignment or jamming of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the tools operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool, may become hazardous when used on another tool.

5. SERVICE

Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel.Service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury. 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.Some dust created by power grinding contains chemicals that may cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are: Lead from lead-based paint Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other masonry products Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well-ventilated area, use approved safety equipment, and use dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR THE BENCH GRINDER

Always use the eye shields, spark arrestors and wear safety goggles with side shields.Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance instructions may create a risk of electric shock or injury. Replace a cracked grinding wheel immediately. Handle the grinding wheels carefully. When replacing, do not tighten the spindle nut too tightly, the strain can damage the wheel. The wheel diameter decreases with use. Adjust the tool rests whenever necessary to maintain a distance of 1/8" or less from the grinding surface. Adjust the spark arrestors to maintain a 1/16" distance or less from the wheel's surface. Pieces of stone may be thrown off the rotating wheel when first starting the grinder. Always stand to one side of the grinder wheel when turning it on, and wait at the side until the wheel is at full speed. Make sure there is no flammable material near the exhaust chutes. The chute will channel out sparks and debris.Never apply pressure to the workpiece when the grinding wheel is cold. Allow the wheel to warm up by applying the workpiece gradually. Never use the grinder without the wheel guards. Keep fingers away from the wheel. Do not try to cut anything with the grinding wheel. When the wheel is worn out of round, use a wheel dressing tool to resurface it.

PROPERLY GROUNDED. IF YOU ARE NOT SURE HAVE A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN CHECK THE RECEPTACLE.

DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED.If it will not fit the outlet,

have the proper outlet installed by an electrician.IMPROPER CONNECTION of the equipment ground conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with the green insulation (with or without yellow stripes) is the equipment grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, DO NOT connect the equipment grounding conductor to a live terminal a live terminal

EXTENSION CORDS

Use proper extension cords. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition and is a 3-wire extension cord which has a 3-prong grounding type plug and matching receptacle which will accept the machine's plug. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current of the machine. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and overheating.The table , shows the correct gauge to use depending on the cord length. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

adjusting or maintaining the grinder. Do not attempt torepair or maintain the motor electrical components. This should only be done by aqualified service technician.

If you must replace a grinding wheel, be sure to obtain one with a safe rated speed at least as high as the "no load speed" RPM marked on the data plate of the grinder.To replace the grinding wheel, remove the wheel guard cover by loosening the screws, next, loosen the wheel nut in a clockwise direction for the left side and a counterclockwise direction for the right side. Remove the outer flange and grinding wheel. To install a new grinding wheel. reverse the above procedure. Be sure the grinding wheel and outer flange are properly seated on the spindle shaft. Electric tools used on fiberglass material, wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster are subject to accelerated wear and possible premature failure because the fiberglass chips and grindings are highly abrasive to bearings, brushes, commutators, etc. Consequently, we do not recommended using this tool for extended work on these types of materials. However, if you do work with any of these materials, it is extremely important to clean thetool using compressed air.
