FAILURE TO OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING WARNINGS COULD RESULT IN INJURY.
•
Do not use this tool if actual free speed exceeds the
nameplate rpm.
•
Before mounting a wheel, after any tool repair or
whenever a Grinder is issued for use, check free
speed of Grinder with a tachometer to make
certain its actual speed at 90 psig (6.2 bar/620
kPa) does not exceed rpm stamped or printed on
the nameplate. Grinders in use on the job must be
similarly checked at least once each shift.
•
Do not use any grinding wheel, bur or other
accessory having a maximum operating speed less
than the free speed of the Grinder in which it is
being used. Always conform to maximum rpm on
grinding wheel blotters.
•
Inspect all grinding wheels for chips or cracks
prior to mounting. Do not use a wheel that is
chipped or cracked or otherwise damaged. Do not
use a wheel that has been soaked in water or any
other liquid.
•
After mounting a new wheel, hold the Grinder
under a steel workbench or inside a casting and
run it for at least 60 seconds. Make certain no one
is within the operating plane of the grinding wheel.
If a wheel is defective, improperly mounted or the
wrong size and speed, this is the time it will usually
fail.

protection when operating
this tool.

GRINDER SPECIFIC WARNINGS
WARNING
WARNING
WARNING
•
When starting with a cold wheel, apply it to the
work slowly until the wheel gradually warms up.
Make smooth contact with the work and avoid any
bumping action or excessive pressure.
•
Model 302 Angle Grinders have a free speed of
16 000 rpm when operated at 90 psig (6.2 bar/
620 kPa) air pressure. Operation at higher air
pressure will result in excessive speed.
•
Always match collet size with accessory shank size.
•
Always insert tool shank no less than 10 mm in the
collet. Tighten Collet Nut securely to prevent
accessory from working out during operation of
the Grinder. Check tightness of Collet Nut before
operating the Grinder. Pay particular attention to
the fact that allowed speed of a mounted point is
lowered when the length of the shaft is increased
between end of collet and mounted point
(overhang).
