Grinding TipsOperation Safety
The grinder is a safe tool when used properly. In
addition to the safety instructions in this manual,
the most important safety consideration is to use
common sense at all times. What may be okay in
one situation, may not be safe in another.
Here are some tips to keep in mind while
grinding:
• Make sure all guards are in place.
• Remember that grinding often produces
sparks. DO NOT allow anyone to stand in
the path of the sparks. DO NOT grind near
flammable materials.
• Maintain proper care of your wheels. Read
the Wheel Care instructions for ideas on how
to do this.
• Wear the proper protective clothing. Particles
flying off of a grinding wheel will be travel
-
ing very fast—prepare for this. Wear safety
glasses/face shield, a dust mask, earplugs,
a leather apron, and heavy leather boots.
• Grasp the workpiece firmly and properly
support it on the tool rest during grinding.
Maintain even pressure and control of the
workpiece when grinding.
• Concentrate on the task at hand. STOP
grinding if other people are distracting you or
your mind is on something else.
• DO NOT grind on the side of the wheel.
The wheels provided with the Model H7758/
H7759 are not designed for side grinding.
