ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS/OPERATIONS

DANGER

FOR MAXIMUM PROTECTION AGAINST A FAULT, ALWAYS CONFIGURETHE GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER TO BE PLUGGED INTO THE EXTEN- SION CORD. A CONFIGURATIONWITHTHE GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER PLACED BETWEEN THE POWER SOURCE ANDTHE EXTENSION CORD WILL NOT AFFORD MAXIMUM PROTECTION AGAINST A POTENTIAL FAULT.

6)Couple the NEMA 6-20R receptacle and the NEMA 6- 20P plug together.

7)Grasp the operator handle with firm gripping. When starting the electric motor, apply a down force directly to the operator handle to help reduce the amount of machine weight against the work surface.Turn the ON/ OFF switch to the ON position. Reduce the amount of applied down force on the operator handle as the electric motor attains its operational speed.

When operating on 115 VAC, the electric motor will require additional starting time to help compensate for the additional starting amperage requirement.This time is usually within two seconds of activating the ON/OFF switch.

8)The SFG10E SURFACE GRINDER is not equipped with a centrifugal clutch assembly. The electric motor is directly coupled to the multi-accessory disc by a V- belt/spur gear transmission.

DANGER

AS SOON ASTHE ELECTRIC MOTOR HAS STARTED, THE OPERATOR MUST BE IN A POSITION TO ASSUME DIRECT AND FULL CONTROL OF THE SURFACE GRINDER. FAILURETO ASSUME DIRECT AND FULL CONTROL CAN RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.

9)The SFG10E SURFACE GRINDER is stopped by moving the ON/OFF switch located on the operator handle to the OFF position. For safety considerations, it is also recommended that the extension cord be disconnected from both the SURFACE GRINDER and electric power source whenever the SURFACE GRINDER is not in use on the job site.

OPERATING THE SURFACE GRINDER ON THE JOBSITE

DANGER

THE GRINDING PROCESS PRODUCES EXCESSIVE NOISE, VIBRATION AND FLYING DEBRIS. ALL OPERATORS AND WORK PERSONNEL IN THE VICINITY OF THE SURFACE GRINDER MUST WEAR APPROPRIATE SAFETY EYE WEAR AND HEARING PROTECTION DEVICES. OTHER SAFETY APPAREL AND/OR PROCEDURES, DEEMED NECESSARY BY SUPERVISORY PERSONNEL MUST ALSO BEWORN AND/OR PRACTICED BY ALL APPROPRIATE PERSONNEL.

DANGER

EXERCISE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN OPERATING THE SURFACE GRINDER INTHE VICINITY OF DECK INSERTS, PIPES, COLUMNS, OPENINGS, LARGE CRACKS, UTILITY OUTLETS OR ANY OBJECT PROTRUDING FROMTHE SURFACE. CONTACTWITH SUCH OBJECTS CAN LEADTO LOSS OF MACHINE CONTROL, RESULTING IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.

1)The SURFACE GRINDER incorporates a rotating disc for mounting a wide variety of multi-accessory attachments. Direct contact with a protruding obstruction from the floor can result in rapid and jerky directional movement of the machine. In most operating situations, direct contact with such an obstruction will result in the multi-accessory attachment becoming dislodged from the rotating disc. This occurrence is intended to protect the SURFACE GRINDER from excessive damage and allow the operator to remain in proper control of the machine.

DANGER

ALWAYS MAINTAIN PROPER CONTROL OF THE SURFACE GRINDER. IF AN OPERATOR LOSES CON- TROL OF THE MACHINE, A “RUNAWAY” SURFACE GRINDER CAN RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY. BECAUSE OF THE UNIQUE OPERATING CHARACTERISTICS OF THE SURFACE GRINDER,THERE IS NO PROVISION FOR THE ELECTRIC MOTORTO AUTOMATICALLY STOP IF THE OPERATOR FAILS TO MAINTAIN PROPER CONTROL.
