SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND STORAGE

1)Use only genuine, approved replacement parts and accessories for maintenance and repair. Use of parts and accessories manufactured by others can result in property damage and/or personal injury.

2)Follow the Service instructions as outlined in the appropriate section of this manual.

3)Always stop the electric motor and disconnect the power source cable BEFORE checking or working on the SURFACE GRINDER.

4)Always properly maintain the SURFACE GRINDER. Frequently check all fasteners and individual parts. Built in safety features are effective only if they are maintained in good working condition. Replace any questionable part or assembly with a genuine, factory approved, replacement part. Do not forsake proper maintenance for the price of a few replacement parts. Proper maintenance does not cost...it actually pays dividends. Do not attempt any maintenance repair work not described in this manual. Have such work performed at your dealer’s service facility.

5)Do not operate the SURFACE GRINDER without the use of factory approved V-belt and diamond blade guards that are maintained in proper structural condition. Frequently inspect the guards for signs of wear, cracks and other signs of fatigue. If there is any question regarding the structural integrity and/or condition of the belt guard, properly dispose and replace with a genuine, factory approved, replacement part only.

6)Maintain all safety and operation decals in proper condition. If any decal becomes damaged and/or unreadable, replace with a genuine, factory approved, replacement part only.

7)The SURFACE GRINDER utilizes many self-locking type hexagon head nuts to minimize the effects of vibration. Replace all self-locking hardware with genuine, factory approved, replacement parts only.

8)Consult the material supplied by the electric motor manufacturer for specific information relative to proper operational, lubrication and storage requirements.
