• Check damaged parts. Before further use of
the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that
it will operate properly and perform its intend-
ed function. Check for alignment of moving
parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, mounting and any other conditions that
may affect its operation. A guard or other part
that is damaged must be properly repaired or
replaced by an authorized service center to
avoid risk of personal injury.
• Never use in an explosive atmosphere. Nor-
mal sparking of the motor or sparking from
grinding metal could ignite fumes.
• Never start the grinder when the wheel is in
contact with the workpiece.
• Secure work. Always hold workpiece firmly
against the work table.
• Do not use the bench grinder if the flange
nut or clamp nut is missing or if the spindle
shaft is bent.
• Frequently clean grinding dust from beneath
grinder.
• Do not operate this tool while under the in-
fluence of drugs, alcohol, or any medication.
• Always stay alert. Do not allow familiarity,
gained from frequent use of your grinder, to
cause a careless mistake.
• Always remember that a careless fraction of
a second is sufficient to inflict severe injury.
• Never reach to pick up a workpiece, a piece
of scrap, or anything else that is in or near the
grinding path of the wheel.
• Avoid awkward operations and hand posi-
tions where a sudden slip could cause your
hand to move into the wheel. Always make
sure you have good balance.
• Never stand or have any part of your body in
line with the path of the wheel.
• Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on
and off. Have defective switches replaced by
an authorized service center.
• Do not turn the motor switch on and off
quickly. This could cause the wheel to loosen
and could create a hazard. Should this ever oc-
cur, stand clear and allow the wheel to come
to a complete stop. Disconnect your grinder
from the power supply and securely retighten
the wheel nut.
• If any part of this grinder is missing or should
break, bend, or fail in any way, or should any
E N G L I S H •
electrical component fail to perform properly,
shut off the power switch, remove the machine
plug from the power source and have dam-
aged, missing, or failed parts replaced before
resuming operation.
• Make sure the grinder is securely mounted as
described in the operating instructions before
connecting the tool to a power supply.
• Do not overtighten the wheel nut. Excessive
tightening can cause the wheel to crack during
operation.
• Inspect grinding wheel for visible defect.
Check the wheel for fissures and cracks. Re-
place defective wheels prior to use.
• Adjust distance between wheel and work
rest to maintain 1/16" (1,6 mm). Or less separa-
tion, readjustment is necessary as the diameter
of the wheel decreases with use.
• Always ease the workpiece against the abra-
sive wheel when starting to grind. A hard im-
pact can break the wheel. Use light pressure
when starting to grind; too much pressure on a
cold wheel can cause the wheel to crack.
