Kawasaki 691202 Grinder User Manual


 
Unplug Angle Grinder from power supply and place the switch in the locked
or “OFF” position before making any assembly adjustments, changing
accessories or performing any inspection, maintenance or cleaning proce-
dures. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool acci-
dentally which could cause serious personal injury.
Only use grinding and cutting wheels that are approved for a maximum
speed of 13,000 rpm or greater.
After replacing a wheel or brush, always let the tool run for one minute in a
well-protected area. If the new accessory has an undetected flaw, it should
break apart in less than a minute.
Do not use the Angle Grinder if it has been damaged, left outdoors in the
rain, snow, wet or damp environments, or immersed in liquid.
Maintain labels and nameplates on the Angle Grinder. These carry important
information. If unreadable or missing, contact Alltrade for a replacement.

Always wear an OSHA approved dusk mask or respirator when inside the
work area. Replace the filter daily. NOTE: Not all dust masks offer protection
from lead paint dust. Be sure to use the proper mask for the job.
Before connecting the tool to the power supply follow the safety instructions
for installing the grinding or cutting wheels. Do not lock the wheels too tight
or cracks may occur.
Only use grinding or cutting wheels with the correct bore size for the spindle
of the grinder.
Use standard parts. Do not use coolant or water and do not use as a fixed grinder.
Do not start the tool when the grinding or cutting wheels are touching the work area.
Keep the power cord well away from the cutting area during use. Always position
the cord so that it will not be caught in the workpiece when the grinder is in use.
Always have the guards in place and properly positioned when using grind-
ing wheels or wire cup brushes.
Secure the material being grinded. Never hold it in your hand or across your
legs. Do not use your legs or feet to stabilize the workpiece. Unstable support
can cause loss of control and could result in lacerations or injury.
Always make sure no one, including the user, is in line with the tool when
starting the motor.
Always use both hands when operating the Angle Grinder.
Always hold this tool by the insulated gripping surfaces. If this tool should
accidentally cut across its own cord or hidden wiring, all exposed metal parts
will become live and could seriously shock the user.
When using the Angle Grinder, always maintain a firm grip on the tool. Keep
your hands well away from the grinding wheel or brush. Never reach under-
neath the Angle Grinder while the sanding disk is in motion.
When the Angle Grinder is in operation, keep hands away from the cutting or
grinding area.
Do not run the Angle Grinder while carrying it at your side. A moving grind-
ing wheel or brush could cause lacerations or personal injury.
The disc will not stop immediately when the Angle Grinder is turned off.
Exercise caution.
Do not set the Angle Grinder down after use until the grinding or cutting
wheels have come to a complete stop.
Keep the handle of the Angle Grinder dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
