Additional Safety Instructions For Surface Grinders
No list of safety guidelines can be complete.
Every shop environment is different. Always
consider safety first, as it applies to your indi-
vidual working conditions. Use this and other
machinery with caution and respect. Failure to
do so could result in serious personal injury,
damage to equipment or poor work results.
Like all power tools, there is danger associat-
ed with the Model G5963 Surface Grinder. Use
the tool with respect and caution to lessen the
possibility of mechanical damage or operator
injury. If normal safety precautions are over-
looked or ignored, serious personal injury may
occur.
1. Ensure that the machine sits firmly on the
floor before use. Any “wobbles” must be
corrected by shimming or blocking before
operation.
2. This machine is not designed to process
any other material except metals.
3. Never position fingers or hands directly
between the grinding wheel and the table.
4. Do not operate surface grinder with
cracked or damaged grinding wheels.
5. Always use extreme care in handling grind-
ing wheels during installation. Always “ring
check” the wheel to determine possible
damage.
6. Ensure that the surface grinder is properly
adjusted before using.
7. Never load or unload the workpiece while
the grinding wheel is rotating or the table is
moving.
8. If using coolants for grinding, always read
and understand the user information listed
on the coolant container. Some coolants
used for machining may be hazardous to
your health if not used and stored properly.
9. This manual is intended to familiarize you
with this grinding machine. It is not, nor
was it ever intended to be, a comprehen-
sive training manual.
Operation of this equipment has the potential
to propel debris into the air which can cause
eye injury. Always wear safety glasses or gog-
gles when operating equipment. Everyday
glasses or reading glasses only have impact
resistant lenses, they are not safety glasses.
Be certain the safety glasses you wear meet
the appropriate standards of the American
National Standards Institute (ANSI).
