14. 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.
15. AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND POSITIONS where a sudden slip could cause
your hand to move into the wheel. ALWAYS make sure you have good balance.
16. NEVER stand or have any part of your body in line with the path of the wheel.
17. DO NOT USE TOOL IF SWITCH DOES NOT TURN IT ON AND OFF. Have defective switches
replaced by an authorized service center.
18. DO NOT TURN THE MOTOR SWITCH ON AND OFF RAPIDLY. This could cause the wheel to
loosen and create a hazard. Should this ever occur, stand clear and allow the wheel to come to a complete
stop. Disconnect your grinder from the power supply and retighten the wheel nut securely.
19. RISK OF INJURY DUE TO ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Do not use in an area where children may
be present.
20. NEVER START THE GRINDER when the wheel is in contact with the workpiece.
21. SECURE WORK. Always hold the workpiece firmly against the work rest.
22. DO NOT USE THE BENCH GRINDER if the flange nut or clamp nut is missing or if the spindle shaft
is bent.
23. FREQUENTLY clean grinding dust from beneath the grinder.
24. DO NOT OPERATE THIS TOOL WHILE UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS, ALCOHOL
OR ANY MEDICATION.
25. 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.
26. STAY ALERT AND EXERCISE CONTROL. Watch what you are doing and use common sense. Do
not operate the tool when you are tired. Do not rush.
27. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. Refer to them frequently and use them to instruct other users. If you
loan someone this tool, loan them these instructions also.
28. ALWAYS EASE THE WORKPIECE AGAINST THE ABRASIVE WHEEL when starting to grind.
A harsh impact can break the wheel. Use light pressure when starting to grind. Too much pressure on a
cold wheel can cause the wheel to crack.
29. USE ONLY FLANGES furnished with this bench grinder.
30. IF ANY PART OF THIS GRINDER IS MISSING or should break, bend, fail in any way, or should
any electrical component fail to perform properly, shut off the power switch, remove the machine plug
from the power source and have damaged, missing, or failed parts replaced before resuming operation.
