Like all power tools, there is danger associ- ated with the Model G2790 Universal Knife Grinder. Accidents are frequently caused by lack of familiarity or failure to pay atten- tion. Use this tool with respect and caution to lessen the possibility of operator injury. If normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored serious personal injury may occur.
Operating this equipment has the potential for flying debris to cause eye injury. Always wear safety glasses or goggles when oper- ating equipment. Everyday glasses or read- ing glasses only have impact resistant lenses, they are not safety glasses. Be cer- tain the safety glasses you wear meet the appropriate standards of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
No list of safety guidelines can be com- plete. Every shop environment is different. Always consider safety first, as it applies to your individual working conditions. Use this and other machinery with caution and respect. Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury, damage to equip- ment or poor work results.
