English
• Store idle tools out of reach of children and other inexperienced persons. They are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
• Maintain power tools with care. Check for proper alignment and binding of moving parts, components, and any
other conditions that may affect the tool’s operation. A guard or any other part that is damaged must be properly
repaired or replaced by an authorized service center to avoid risk of personal injury.
• Use only recommended accessories. Using accessories and attachments not recommended by the
manufacturer or intended for use on this type tool may cause damage to the tool or result in personal injury to
the user. Consult the operator’s manual for recommended accessories.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
• Feed the work piece in the correct direction and speed. Feed the work piece into a blade, cutter, or abrasive
surface against the direction of the cutting tool’s direction of rotation only. Incorrectly feeding the work piece in
the same direction may cause the work piece to be thrown out at high speed.
• Never leave the tool running unattended, turn the power off. Do not leave the tool until it comes to a complete
stop.
• Never start the power tool when any rotating component is in contact with the work piece.

• Service your power tool periodically. When cleaning a tool, be careful not to disassemble any portion of the tool
since internal wires may be misplaced or pinched.

changes.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR BENCH GRINDERS
WARNING! Do not allow familiarity with your tool to make you careless. Remember that a careless fraction of a
second is sufficient to inflict severe injury.
• Make sure the bench grinder is on a firm, level surface and properly secured to avoid injury from unexpected
movement. Firmly clamp or bolt the bench grinder to a support surface to prevent slipping or sliding during the
operation.
• Unplug the tool before making adjustments, repairs, maintenance, or storing.
• Always switch off the tool before unplugging it to avoid accidental starting when re-plugging the tool into a power
source.
• Wear eye protection. Do not wear neckties or loose clothing.
• Do not operate the bench grinder until it is assembled and installed according to this manual’s instructions.
• Always make sure the wheel guards and eye shields are properly adjusted and secured in place.
• Use only attachments rated for 3600 RPM or higher with a 1/2 in. arbor hole or appropriate sized bushing. Never
use an attachment rated lower than 3600 RPM or attempt to machine an undersized wheel to fit the arbor.
• Always use the wheel flanges furnished with this tool to mount grinding wheels on the grinder shafts.
• Do not over-tighten the wheel nut. Excessive tightening can cause the wheel to crack prior to or during
operation.
• Inspect grinding wheels each time before starting the machine for visible defects such as fissures, cracks, or
chips. Replace damaged grinding wheels immediately.
