Additional Safety Instructions for Bench Grinders

• Because each shop situation is unique, no list of safety guidelines can ever be complete.
• The most important safety feature in any shop is the knowledge and good judgement of the user.
• Use common sense and always keep safety considerations, as they apply to your individual shop situation first and foremost in mind. If you have any doubts about the safety of an operation you are about to perform: STOP! Do not perform the operation until you have validated from qualified individuals if the operation is safe to perform and what is the safest method to perform it.

1. LIMIT EXPOSURE TO DUST
   Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and similar operations contains chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples include:

   • Lead from lead-based paint.
   • Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other masonry products.
   • Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
     Your risk from these exposures varies depending on how often you do this types of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals, work in a well ventilated area and work with approved safety equipment such as dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

2. ALWAYS USE EYESHIELDS, WHEEL GUARDS AND SPARK GUARDS
   The supplied eye shields, wheel guards and spark guards should be maintained, properly installed on the unit and used at all times.

3. REPLACE DAMAGED PARTS OR COMPONENT IMMEDIATELY
   Damaged parts or components may lead to a hazardous situation that could cause serious injury. Replace any damaged parts or components before operating the unit.

4. INSPECT GRINDING WHEELS BEFORE EACH USE
   Handle grinding wheels carefully. A damaged or chipped grinding wheel can discharge debris towards the operator at high speeds. Before installing or replacing a grinding wheel as well as before each use, take a moment to inspect the grinding wheel(s) for cracks, chips or other visible signs of damage. Do not use a damaged wheel. Tighten the spindle nut enough to hold the grinding wheel firmly but do not over tighten as excessive clamping force can damage the wheel. Use only the wheel flanges provided with the grinder and do not remove the blotter or label on either side of the grinding wheel. When replacing a grinding wheel select only wheels that are rated to a higher maximum R.P.M. than the maximum of the Bench Grinder.

5. ADJUST TOOL RESTS AND SPARK GUARDS AS NEEDED
   The diameter of the grinding wheels will decrease with use. Adjust the tools rests and sparks guards accordingly to maintain a distance of 1/16” from the wheel.

6. DO NOT STAND IN FRONT OF THE BENCH GRINDER DURING START-UP
   To avoid potential injury caused by debris ejected from a damaged wheel, stand to one side of the Bench Grinder when starting the unit. While standing to the side, turn the unit on, wait one minute until the unit comes up to full speed before grinding.

7. DO NOT OPERATE IN THE VICINITY OF FLAMMABLE MATERIALS
   Bench grinders will produce sparks and debris during grinding. Be sure to keep flammable materials from the immediate vicinity. Be sure to clean the grinding dust from the back of the Bench Grinder frequently.

8. DO NOT FORCE THE WORKPIECE AGAINST THE GRINDING WHEEL

9. Excessive force especially to a cold grinding wheel may damage the wheel and create a dangerous situation. Apply the workpiece against the wheel slowly and use firm, steady even pressure. Do not grind against the sides of the grinding wheel and do not apply coolant direct to the grinding wheel.

10. KEEP ALL WHEEL GUARDS IN PLACE
    Do not use the bench grinder with the wheel guards removed.

11. KEEP THE TOOL RESTS FIRMLY TIGHTENED
    Inspect and re-tighten tools rests before each use.

12. USE THE SUPPLIED WHEEL DRESSER
    Always use the supplied wheel dresser to resurface the face of the grinding wheel.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

• IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAKDOWN, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current and reduces the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord that has an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug MUST be plugged into a matching receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with ALL local codes and ordinances.

• DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED.
  If it will not fit the receptacle, have the proper receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.

• IMPROPER CONNECTION of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with 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.
  CHECK with a qualified electrician or service person if you do not completely understand the grounding instructions, or if you are not sure the tool is properly grounded.

• USE ONLY 3-WIRE EXTENSION CORDS THAT HAVE 3-PRONG GROUNDING PLUGS AND 3-POLE RECEPTACLES THAT ACCEPT THE TOOL’S PLUG. REPAIR OR REPLACE DAMAGED OR WORN CORD IMMEDIATELY.

GUIDELINES FOR EXTENSION CORDS

• USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD.
  Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and cause overheating. The table below shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

• BE SURE YOUR EXTENSION CORD IS PROPERLY WIRED and in good condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it. Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp or wet areas.
  Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. This circuit must not be less than # 12 wire and should be protected with a 15 Amp time delay fuse. Before connecting the motor to the power line, make sure the switch is in the OFF position and the electric current is rated the same as the current stamped on the motor nameplate. Running at a lower voltage will damage the motor.

This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has a receptacle like the one illustrated in Figure . Figure shows a 3-prong electrical plug and receptacle that has a grounding conductor. If a properly grounded receptacle is not available, an adapter (Figure ) can be used to temporarily connect this plug to a 2-contact grounded receptacle. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded receptacle can be installed by a qualified technician. The adapter (Figure ) has a rigid lug extending from it that MUST be connected to a permanent earth ground, such as a properly grounded receptacle box. The Canadian Electrical Code prohibits the use of the adapters.

• In all cases, make certain the receptacle is properly grounded. If you are not sure, have a qualified electrician check the receptacle.
• This tool is for indoor use only. Do not expose to rain or use in damp locations.

his tool must be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electrical shock.
