DANGER

EXERCISE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN UTILIZING A MECHANICAL DEVICE FOR LIFTINGTHE SURFACE GRINDER. UTILIZE THE MECHANICAL DEVICE IN ACCORDANCE TO BOTH ITS STATED STATIC AND DYNAMIC LOADING ENVELOPES. DO NOT UTILIZE THE MECHANICAL DEVICE UNTIL THIS INFORMA- TION IS PROPERLY KNOWN AND UNDERSTOOD BY ALL APPLICABLE PERSONNEL. FAILURETO PROP- ERLY UTILIZE THE MECHANICAL DEVICE CAN RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PER- SONAL INJURY.

2)To minimize the possibility of damage to the SURFACE GRINDER, always transport in its normal, upright position. All equipment must be secured in/on vehicles with suitable strapping or tie-downs. Personnel should not be transported in the same compartment as equipment and fuel supplies. Consult applicable OSHA, AGA, CGA, etc. regulations for the proper transportation flammable gases.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS/OPERATIONS

ADJUSTINGTHE OPERATOR HANDLE HEIGHT

The SFG10E SURFACE GRINDER incorporates a handle that can be adjusted to compensate for variances in operator heights. Correct handle height can increase overall machine productivity and reduce operator fatigue.

1)Loosen both knobs on the lower handle. FIGURE 30.

2)Pull the top handle until the desired height is reached.

3)Tighten both knobs on the lower handle.

STARTING THE SFG10E SURFACE GRINDER ON THE JOBSITE

1)Position the SURFACE GRINDER on a flat and level surface of firm foundation.

2)Determine that the ON/OFF switch located on the operator handle is in the OFF position.

DANGER

UNEXPECTED MACHINE START UP CAN RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.

3)The motor is designed to operate from a clean, 20 ampere, 115 VAC, 60 Hz nominal power source. A clean power source refers to the amperage available on the individual electrical circuit selected. Additional electrical products already utilizing the same circuit will reduce the available amperage, resulting in starting and operational difficulties.
