A. SAFETY RULES
1. While operating this machine, do not wear
jewelry, loose clothing, necklaces or neckties.
Long sleeves on shirts should be rolled up or
securely buttoned at the cuff.
2. Persons with beards and/or long hair should
consider the use of a hat, hair net or similar
protective equipment.
3. Always use face/eye protection when operat-
ing the slow-speed grinder. A full face shield
will afford the best protection followed by
safety glasses with side shields.
4. All adjustments or maintenance should be
done with the power off and the slow-speed
grinder unplugged.
5. Thoroughly clean the machine and surround-
ing area after use.
6. If you have questions about your slow-speed
grinder, ask a professional or an experienced
user.
7. The workpiece must be held securely in
place.
8. Perform routine maintenance inspection and
service.
Remember that every shop has its own specific
hazards. Be sure, above all else, to use good
common sense and reasonable caution each
time you start this grinder, or any machinery.
Develop a habit of safety.
B. TEST RUN
Once the assembly is complete you are ready to
test the machine.
Press the START button. Make sure that your
finger is poised on the STOP button, just in
case there’s a problem. The slow-speed grinder
should run smoothly, with little or no vibration or
rubbing noises. Strange or unnatural noises
should be investigated and corrected before
operating the machine further.
If noises occur that cannot be found by visual
inspection, feel free to contact our service depart-
ment for help.
Always wear ANSI-approved safety glasses
or goggles when operating equipment —
particularly when testing new tools or
machinery. Do not allow visitors into your
workshop when testing or operating equip-
ment. Serious injury could occur if safety
guidelines are not followed.
DO NOT attempt to investigate or adjust the
machine while it is running. Wait until the
machine is turned off, unplugged and all
working parts have come to a rest before
you do anything! Failure to do so could
result in serious operator injury!
