PREPARATION.

1)This SURFACE GRINDER is specialized type of powered equipment, designed for a specific job function and requires adequate and thorough instruction BEFORE it is operated. The size, power, complexity and operating characteristics of this type of powered equipment would dictate that each operator must receive adequate, professional instruction regarding the proper operation of this SURFACE GRINDER before being allowed to utilize it. BEFORE attempting to utilize this SURFACE GRINDER, read this Operator's Manual, the applicable Safety and Operating Information Video Tape and the material supplied by the engine manufacturer to familiarize each operator with its correct operating procedures. Avoid the urge not to take

the necessary time to read this Operator's Manual before operating the SURFACE GRINDER. DO NOT OPERATE THE SURFACE GRINDER UNTIL EACH OPERATOR

COMPLETELY COMPREHENDS THE CONTENTS OF THIS MANUAL AND THE APPLICABLE SAFETY AND OPERATIONAL INFORMATION VIDEO TAPE.

2)Develop a comprehensive program for the safe operation of the SURFACE GRINDER by its owner(s) and/or operator(s). Such a program will include, but is not limited to: instructional requirements for operation, applicable OSHA requirements, local laws and regulations, job site safety and a SURFACE GRINDER maintenance program. Constantly examine and upgrade this program to guarantee owner(s) and/or operator(s) safety. Each operator must be fully instructed regarding the specifics of this safety program.

3)Determine that the SURFACE GRINDER is in its original, factory configuration and has not been modified in any manner. Many modifications can result in potentially dangerous configurations that can lead to property damage and/or personal injury. If there are any questions about possible modifications made to the SURFACE GRINDER, contact the Customer Service Department for specific information BEFORE utilization. There is no charge for this service. Do not operate the SURFACE GRINDER without the use of the original equipment V-belt guard. Use of the SURFACE GRINDER without an approved belt guard can lead to property damage and/or personal injury.

4)Minors should never be allowed to operate the SURFACE GRINDER. Bystanders, especially children and animals, should not be allowed in the area where the SURFACE GRINDER is in use. The grinding process can result in flying particles being emitted at high velocity and striking the operator and/or onlookers. This can lead to the possibility of property damage and/or personal injury. Keep all body parts, loose clothing, foreign objects and onlookers clear of the rotating discs, multi-accessory attachments and flying particles.

5)Operators must be in adequate physical condition, mental health and not under the influence of any substance (drugs, alcohol, etc.) which might impair vision, dexterity or judgment. Working with the SURFACE GRINDER is strenuous. If you have any condition that might be aggravated by strenuous work, check with your doctor BEFORE operating the SURFACE
