SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR BENCH GRINDERS

The operation of any grinder can result in debris being thrown into your eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. ALWAYS wear Safety Goggles (that comply with ANSI standard Z87.1) when operating the grinder. Safety Goggles are available at Sears Retail Stores. Keep your thumbs and fingers away from the grinding wheels.

1.ALWAYS USE THE EYE SHIELDS AND WHEEL GUARDS provided with the grinder.

2.REPLACE A CRACKED OR DAMAGED GRIND- ING WHEEL IMMEDIATELY. A damaged wheel can discharge debris at a high velocity towards the operator. Carefully handle the grinding wheels since they are abrasive. Prior to replacing a grinding wheel, check it for cracks. DO NOT remove the blotter or label on both sides of the grinding wheel. Tighten the spindle nut just enough to hold the grinding wheel firmly to the Bench Grinder. Do not over-tighten the nut. Excessive clamping force can damage the grinding wheel. Only use the wheel flanges provided with the grinder. When selecting a replacement grinding wheel, verify that the grinding wheel has a higher R.P.M. rating than the maximum R.P.M. of the Bench Grinder.

3.THE DIAMETER OF THE GRINDING WHEELS WILL DECREASE WITH USE. Adjust the tool rests and spark arrestors to maintain a distance of 1/16” from the wheel.

4.DO NOT STAND IN FRONT OF THE BENCH GRINDER WHEN STARTING IT. Stand to one side of the Bench Grinder and turn it “ON”. Wait at the side for one minute until the grinder comes up to full speed. There is always a possibility that debris from a damaged grinding wheel may be discharged towards the operator.

5.THE BENCH GRINDER WILL PRODUCE SPARKS AND DEBRIS DURING GRINDING OPERATIONS. Be sure that there are not any flammable materials in the vicinity. Frequently clean grinding dust from the back of the Bench Grinder.

6.NEVER FORCE THE WORKPIECE AGAINST A GRINDING WHEEL, especially if the wheel is cold. Apply the workpiece slowly, allowing the grinding wheel an opportunity to warm up. This will minimize the chance of wheel breakage. DO NOT grind using the sides of the grinding wheels. DO NOT apply coolant directly to the grinding wheel.

7.KEEP ALL WHEEL GUARDS IN PLACE. DO NOT USE THE BENCH GRINDER WITH THE WHEEL GUARDS REMOVED.

8.KEEP THE TOOL RESTS FIRMLY TIGHTENED.

9.ALWAYS USE THE SUPPLIED WHEEL DRESSER TO RESURFACE THE FACE OF THE GRINDING WHEEL.
