GRINDER SANDER SAFETY WARNINGS

Ŷ The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. If you are not sure, have a certified electrician check the receptacle.English

Ŷ Mount the grinder sander firmly to the workbench, grinding stand or other rigid frame before operation. An unsecured grinder sander is unstable and may move during operation. This may result in damage or injury. Ŷ Provide adequate general or localized lighting to prevent stroboscopic effect and hazards. Ŷ Prior to operation, inspect the components and any accessories of the grinder sander to ensure there are no conditions that may affect proper operation. Tighten grinding wheel lock nuts, securing bolts and all clamps and guards. Ŷ Prior to each start up, inspect the grinding wheel for damage. Do not use damaged or misshapen wheels. Replace any damaged grinding wheel according to the instructions. Ŷ Check that the wheel rotates freely prior to each start up. With the grinder sander unplugged and the switch turned to OFF, carefully spin the wheel by hand. The wheel should not contact any components of the bench grinder, and there should be no binding or other conditions that may affect proper operation. Ŷ During each start-up, stand to one side of the grinder sander and switch it ON. Let the grinder sander operate at full speed for one minute so that any undetected flaws or cracks of the wheel will become apparent. Do not contact the wheel with the work piece until the grinder sander has reached full speed. Ŷ Keep hands and body parts clear of grinding wheels. Contacting the rotating wheel may cause injury. Ŷ Always use guards and eye shields. Keep all guards in place and in working order. Operating the grinder sander without guards or with damaged guards may result in injury. Ŷ Avoid burns. Grinding may cause items and the grinding wheel to become hot. Do not touch the grinding wheel or items that may be hot. Ŷ Do not use the grinder sander to work on small items or items which cannot be held properly. The item may be thrown and result in injury. Ŷ Never grind on the side of the wheel. The wheel will shatter. Grind on the face of the wheel only. Ŷ Never leave a running tool unattended. Turn the power switch to OFF. The grinding wheels continue to rotate after the tool is switched off. Do not leave the tool until it has come to a complete stop. Ŷ Never reach behind or beneath the grinding wheels. Ŷ Use ear protection, such as plugs or muffs, during extended periods of operation. Ŷ Remove the plug before carrying out any adjustment, servicing or maintenance. The power cord must remain unplugged whenever you are maintaining your grinder sander. Ŷ Adjust tool rests whenever necessary to keep the distance between the work rests and the grinding wheels as small as possible. This distance should be less than or equal to 2 mm. As the diameter of the grinding wheel decreases with use, maintain the maximum tool rest distance by adjusting it. Ŷ Adjust spark arrestors whenever necessary to keep the distance between the spark arrestors and the grinding wheels as small as possible. This distance should be less than or equal to 2 mm. As the diameter of the grinding wheel decreases with use, maintain the maximum spark arrestor distance by adjusting it. Ŷ If the work rest becomes worn or damaged, replace it with an identical replacement from the authorised service centre. Ŷ When fitting a new grinding wheel, always check that the stated maximum RPM meets or exceeds that stated on the grinder sander. Ensure the wheel diameter and arbor size meet that stated on the specifications. Also check the new wheel for damage, such as flaws or cracks.

GRINDING WHEEL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING To reduce the risk of injury, user must read and comply with instructions, warnings and operator’s manual before starting to use this grinding wheel. Failure to heed these warnings can result in wheel breakage and serious personal injury. Save these instructions. Ŷ The use of any wheel other than the one recommended in the machine instruction manual may present a risk of personal injury. Use only grinding wheels which have marked speed equal or greater to that marked on the machine. Ŷ Never use grinding wheel that is too thick to allow outer flange to engage with the flats on the spindle. Larger wheels will come in contact with the wheel guards, while thicker wheels will prevent the bolt from securing the wheel on the spindle. Either of these situations could result in a serious accident and can cause serious personal injury. Ŷ This wheel is for grinding and shaping metal. Do not attempt to do cut-off operation. Ŷ This grinding wheel is only suitable for dry grinding. Ŷ Do not use damaged grinding wheels, do not use wheels that are chipped, cracked or otherwise defective. Ŷ Ensure that the abrasive grinding wheel is correctly fitted and tightened before use. Ŷ Machine should never be connected to power supply when you are installing or removing grinding wheels. Ŷ Store your spare grinding wheel carefully. Ɣ Keep the wheel inside the original package if possible. Ɣ Store the wheel in a dry area at room temperature. Ɣ Wheels may be stored vertically on a shelf. Ɣ Do not allow the wheels to fall or suffer any impact.English
