31. Use proper extension cord. Make sure your
extension cord is in good condition. When using
an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your product will
draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. Table 1 (see sect. 7.2) shows the
correct size to use depending on cord length and
nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the
next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number,
the heavier the cord.
32. Secure work. Use clamps or a vise to hold work
when practical. It's safer than using your hand
and it frees both hands to operate tool.
33. Maintain tools with care. Keep tools sharp and
clean for best and safest performance. Follow
instructions for lubricating and changing
accessories.
34. Never stand on tool. Serious injury could occur if
the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is
unintentionally contacted.
35. Direction of feed. Feed work into a blade or cutter
against the direction of rotation of the blade or
cutter only.
36. Do not overtighten wheel nut.
37. Frequently clean grinding dust from beneath
grinder.
38. Use grinding wheel suitable for speed of grinder.
39. Inspect abrasive wheels for cracks or other forms
of damage. Perform a “ring test” to check wheel
integrity. Do not use a faulty or damaged wheel.
40. Verify that maximum RPM of abrasive wheels is
compatible with speed of grinder. Do not remove
the blotter (label) from either side of a grinding
wheel.
41. Allow abrasive wheels to reach full RPM before
starting the grinding operation.
42. Do not crowd the work so that the wheels slow.
43. Tool rests should be adjusted to approximately
1/16” from wheel surface.
44. Do not grind on the side of a wheel; do all work
on the grinding face or edge near the tool rest.
45. Do not grind aluminum or magnesium, as these
may pose a fire hazard.
46. Use only the flanges that are furnished with the
grinder.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Familiarize yourself with the following safety notices used in this manual:

WARNING: Some dust, fumes and gases
created by power sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling, welding and other construction activities
contain chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer and birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of these
chemicals are:
lead from lead based paint
crystalline silica from bricks, cement and
other masonry products
arsenic and chromium from chemically
treated lumber
Your risk of exposure varies, depending on how
often you do this type of work. To reduce your
exposure to these chemicals, work in a well-
ventilated area and work with approved safety
equipment, such as dust masks that are
specifically designed to filter out microscopic
particles. For more information go to
