EXTENSION CORDS

The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of power. To keep the loss to a minimum and to prevent tool overheating, use an extension cord that is heavy enough to carry the current the tool will draw.

A wire gage size (A.W.G.) of at least 16 is recommended for an extension cord 25 feet or less in length. When working outdoors, use an extension cord that is suitable for outdoor use. The cord's jacket will be marked WA.

WARNING:

Check extension cords before each use. If damaged, replace immediately. Never use tool with a damaged cord since touching the damaged area could cause electrical shock resulting in serious injury.

Note: To avoid the risk of fire, never use a bulb with a wattage higher than 40.

WHEEL DRESSER

For models BGH625 and BGH825 ONLY.

Dressing a wheel is done to renew sharpness or to true up the face of the wheel.

Set the work rest of the bench grinder at a slight angle and brace the wheel dresser against it. Do not make contact with the grinding wheel until after you have turned on the motor and the wheel is rotating at full speed. Press the dresser slightly against the rotating wheel until you get a bite, then move slowly from side to side across the wheel. A small bite and many passes is better than a big bite and one pass. Work cautiously, hold the dresser with force on the work rest. Do not use excessive pressure against the grinding wheel. Proceed slowly until you master the technique.
