The grinder is a safe tool when used properly. In addition to the safety instructions in this manual, the most important safety consideration is to use common sense at all times. What may be okay in one situation, may not be safe in another.

Here are some tips to keep in mind while grinding:

Make sure all guards are in place.

Remember that grinding often produces sparks. DO NOT allow anyone to stand in the path of the sparks. DO NOT grind near flammable materials.

Maintain proper care of your wheels. Read the Wheel Care instructions on Page 18 for ideas on how to do this.

Wear the proper protective clothing. Particles flying off of a grinding wheel will be travel- ing very fast—prepare for this. Wear safety glasses/face shield, a dust mask, earplugs, a leather apron, and heavy leather boots.

Grasp the workpiece firmly and properly support it on the tool rest during grinding. Maintain even pressure and control of the workpiece when grinding.

Concentrate on the task at hand. STOP grinding if other people are distracting you or your mind is on something else.

DO NOT grind on the side of the wheel. The wheels provided with the Model H8148/ H8149/H8150 are not designed for side grinding.
