SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

Refer to them often and use them to instruct others.

11. ALWAYS MAKE SURE the eye shields are in place,

properly adjusted, and secured.

12. ADJUST TOOL RESTS close to the grinding wheel

(1/8" separation or less). Tighten the tool rest

securely to prevent shifting positions, and re-adjust

as the wheel wears down. The workpiece can

be drawn into the wheel, causing damage to the

workpiece and/or serious injury.

13. STAND TO ONE SIDE before turning the machine

"ON". Loose fragments or wheel parts could fly

from the wheel at high speeds.

14. NEVER GRIND ON A COLD WHEEL. Run the

grinder for one full minute before applying the

workpiece. A cold wheel has a tendency to chip.

Those fragments could fly from the wheel at high

speeds.

15. NEVER START THE MACHINE with the workpiece

against the grinding wheel. The workpiece can

be drawn into the wheel, causing damage to the

machine and/or serious injury.

16. CLEAN THE MACHINE thoroughly when

processing different types of workpieces (wood,

steel, or aluminum). Combining wood and metal

dust can create an explosion or fire hazard. DO NOT

GRIND or polish magnesium. Fire will result.

17. NEVER GRIND NEAR FLAMMABLE GAS OR

LIQUIDS. Sparks can create a fire or an explosion.

18. AVOID awkward operations and hand positions. A

sudden slip could cause a hand to move into the

grinding wheel.

19. KEEP ARMS, HANDS, and fingers away from the

wheel. The abrasive surfaces can cause serious

injury.

20. HOLD THE WORKPIECE FIRMLY against the tool

rest. Loss of control of the workpiece can cause

serious injury.

21. DRESS THE WHEEL on the face only. Dressing the

side of the wheel could cause it to become too thin

for safe use.

22. GRIND A WORKPIECE using the face of the

grinding wheel only. Loss of control of the

workpiece can cause serious injury.

23. NEVER APPLY COOLANT directly to the grinding

wheel. Coolant can weaken the bonding strength

of the grinding wheel and cause it to fail. Dip the

workpiece in water to cool it.

24. DO NOT TOUCH the ground portion of a workpiece

until it has cooled sufficiently. Grinding creates heat.

25. PROPERLY SUPPORT LONG OR WIDE

workpieces. Loss of control of the workpiece can

cause serious injury.

26. NEVER PERFORM LAYOUT, assembly , or set-up

work on the table/work area when the machine is

running. A sudden slip could cause a hand to move

into the wheel. Severe injury can result.

27. TURN THE MACHINE "OFF", disconnect the

machine from the power source, and clean the

table/work area before leaving the machine.

Lock the switch in the "OFF" position to prevent

unauthorized use. Someone else might accidentally

start the machine and cause serious injury to

themselves.
