15. REMOVE ALL MAINTENANCE TOOLS
from the immediate area prior to turning “ON”
the Bench Grinder.
16. USE ONLY RECOMMENDED
ACCESSORIES. Use of incorrect or improper
accessories could cause serious injury to
the operator and cause damage to the tool.
If in doubt, check the instruction manual that
comes with that particular accessory.
17. NEVER LEAVE A RUNNING TOOL
UNATTENDED. Turn the power switch to the
“OFF” position. DO NOT leave the tool until it
has come to a complete stop.
18. DO NOT STAND ON A TOOL. Serious
injury could result if the tool tips over or you
accidentally contact the tool.
19. DO NOT store anything above or near the
tool where anyone might try to stand on the
tool to reach it.
20. MAINTAIN YOUR BALANCE. DO NOT
extend yourself over the tool. Wear oil
resistantrubbersoledshoes.Keepoorclear
of debris, grease, and wax.
21. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Always
keep tools clean and in good working order.
Keep all blades and tool bits sharp.
22. EACH AND EVERY TIME, CHECK FOR
DAMAGED PARTS PRIOR TO USING THE
TOOL. Carefully check all guards to see that
they operate properly, are not damaged, and
perform their intended functions. Check for
alignment, binding or breaking of moving
parts. A guard or other part that is damaged
should be immediately repaired or replaced.
23. CHILDPROOF THE WORKSHOP AREA
by removing switch keys, unplugging tools
from the electrical receptacles, and using
padlocks.
24. DO NOT OPERATE TOOL IF UNDER
THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS OR
ALCOHOL.
25. SECURE ALL WORK. Use clamps or jigs
to secure the workpiece. This is safer than
attempting to hold the workpiece with your
hands.
26. STAY ALERT, WATCH WHAT YOU ARE
DOING, AND USE COMMON SENSE WHEN
OPERATING A POWER TOOL. DO NOT
USE A TOOL WHILE TIRED OR UNDER
THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS, ALCOHOL,
OR MEDICATION. A moment of inattention
while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
27. ALWAYS WEAR A DUST MASK TO
PREVENT INHALING DANGEROUS DUST
OR AIRBORNE PARTICLES, including wood
dust, crystalline silica dust and asbestos dust.
Direct particles away from face and body.
Always operate tool in well ventilated area and
provide for proper dust removal. Use dust
collection system wherever possible.
Exposure to the dust may cause serious and
permanent respiratory or other injury, including
silicosis (a serious lung disease), cancer, and
death. Avoid breathing the dust, and avoid
prolonged contact with dust. Allowing dust to
get into your mouth or eyes, or lay on your skin
may promote absorption of harmfulmaterial.
AlwaysuseproperlyfittingNIOSH/OSHA
approved respiratory protection appropriate
for the dust exposure, and wash exposed
areas with soap and water.
28. USE A PROPER EXTENSION CORD IN
GOOD CONDITION. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your product will
draw. The table on page 8 shows the correct
size to use depending on cord length and
nameplate amperage rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge
number, the larger diameter of the extension
cord. If in doubt of the proper size of an
extension cord, use a shorter and thicker cord.
An undersized cord will cause a
drop in line voltage resulting in a loss of power
and overheating. USE ONLY A 3-WIRE
EXTENSION CORD THAT HAS A 3-PRONG
GROUNDING PLUG AND A 3-POLE
RECEPTACLE THAT ACCEPTS THE
TOOL’S PLUG.
