Additional Safety Instructions For Grinders

1.Wear a face shield and/or safety gog- gles.

2.Use clamps and supports to sharpen tools.

3.Grinding creates sparks. Make sure your work area is free of combustible materials.

4.Dress the grinding wheel when its sur- face becomes rutted or uneven. Replace the wheel if the wear or dam- age becomes excessive.

5.Do not use a wheel that is cracked or chipped.

6.Be sure the grinder is mounted on a stable surface.

7.If you are unclear about operating the machine, don’t use it. Please call our service department if you have ques- tions about any element of this machine’s operation.

8.Use care when handling sharpened cut- ting tools.

Operating this equipment has the potential to propel debris into the air which can cause eye injury. Always wear safety glass- es or goggles when operating equipment. Everyday glasses or reading glasses only have impact resistant lenses, they are not safety glasses. Be certain the safety glass- es you wear meet the appropriate stan- dards of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).

Like all power tools, there is danger asso- ciated with the Model G8220 Wet/Dry Bench Grinder. Accidents are frequently caused by lack of familiarity or failure to pay attention. Use this tool with respect and caution to lessen the possibility of operator injury. If normal safety precau- tions are overlooked or ignored serious personal injury may occur.

No list of safety guidelines can be complete. 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 per- son injury, damage to equipment or poor work results.
