Additional Safety Instructions For Grinders

1.ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION!

2.MAKE SURE GRINDER IS SECURED FIRMLY TO A BENCH OR STAND BEFORE USE. Any ÒwobblesÓ must be corrected by shimming or blocking before operation.

3.BEFORE MOUNTING A NEW WHEEL, BE SURE WHEEL RPM IS RATED AT AN EQUAL OR HIGHER RPM THAN THE GRINDER.

4.DO NOT GRIND ON THE SIDES OF THE GRINDING WHEELS, unless they are special wheels designed specifically for this purpose.

5.ONLY USE FLANGES THAT ARE INCLUDED WITH THE GRINDER.

6.WEAR AN APPROVED DUST MASK OR RESPIRATOR. Grinding operations produce dust.

7.REPLACE A CRACKED WHEEL IMME- DIATELY. DO NOT use a grinding wheel that has cracks or flaws. Before using, inspect each wheel. Handle wheels care- fully to avoid bumping or dropping.

8.DO NOT stand directly in front of grinding wheels when turning machine on.

9.PERFORM a Òring testÓ (see page 12) on grinding wheels to ensure that they are safe for use. Always inspect grinding wheels before operation.

10.HOLD THE WORKPIECE FIRMLY WHILE GRINDING.

11.DO NOT allow your hands to come into contact with grinding wheels during oper- ation. Abrasive accessories have the ability to remove a lot of material, includ- ing skin, very quickly. However, do not wear gloves while grinding, they may get caught in the grinding wheel.

12.KEEP TOOL REST AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE TO GRINDING WHEEL.

13.NEVER GRIND BY PLACING THE WORKPIECE ON TOP OF THE WHEEL. The wheel may kick the work- piece toward the operator. Always grind on the downward part of the wheel.

To operate this or any power tool safely and efficiently, become as familiar with it as possible. The time you invest before you begin to use your Model H4378/H4379 will be time well spent. DO NOT operate this machine until you are completely familiar with the contents of this manual, or serious personal injury may occur.

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 follow guidelines could result in serious personal injury, damage to equipment or poor work results.
