Good Personal Safety is a Must

Following good safety practices when using a grinder is a

must. Make a habit of including safety in all your activi-

ties.

Always read and understand the tool’s opera-

tor’s manual, tool markings and the instructions

packaged with the accessory before starting any

work.

Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses

with side shields complying with current national

standards, and a full face shield when needed.

Use the appropriate mask or respirator in dusty

work conditions.

Wear proper hearing protection, as needed.

Wear gloves and a shop apron capable of stop-

ping small abrasive or workpiece fragments.

• Dress right. Do not wear loose clothes or jew-

elry. Contain long hair. Loose clothes, jewelry,

or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

• Crowded, cluttered work areas that can cause

tripping or loss of balance are particularly dan-

gerous.

Do not operate the power tool near ammable

materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.

Choose the Right Tool and Accessory

Choosing the correct tool and the proper accessory

for your application can help to reduce the risk of seri-

ous injury. When used according to the manufacturer’s

instructions, the proper tool and accessory will do the job

safer and faster.

When it is recommended to use a guard with a

wire brush, do not allow the wire brush to rub

against the guard. The wire wheel or brush may

expand in diameter due to work load and spin-

ning.

• Wheels must be used only for their recommend-

ed jobs. For example, do not grind with the side

of a cut-off wheel. It will shatter.

• The outside diameter and the thickness of your

accessory must be within the capacity rating of

your power tool (e.g., don’t use an 8” wheel on a

7” grinder). Incorrectly sized accessories cannot

be adequately guarded or controlled.

• Use the correct accessory for your tool. Check

this carefully: Does it t the spindle of the power

tool. Be careful not to over-tighten the spindle

nut. Too much pressure will deform the anges

and stress the wheel. Accessories with arbor

holes that do not match the tool will wobble, vi-

brate excessively and may cause loss of control.

• Always use undamaged wheel anges that are

the correct size and shape to properly support

your accessory.

Make sure the speed marked on the accessory

is at least as high as the no load RPM marked

on the tool. Accessories running faster than their

rated speed can y apart.

Do not use accessories that require liquid

coolant, unless your tool has been specically

designed for operations with liquid coolant. Us-

ing water or other liquid coolants may result in

electrocution or shock.

Portable Grinders:

• Determine the type of tool needed for the job.

Portable grinders come in various types, such

as: “straight” grinders, “vertical” grinders or

“angle” grinders.

• Do not use a grinder that is too heavy for you to

easily control.

• When sanding, do not use excessively oversized

sanding disc paper. Follow tool manufacturer’s

recommendations when selecting sanding

paper.

Know your Workpiece

• Avoid working on small pieces of material which

can’t be properly secured. Injury could result

from small pieces being thrown by the spinning

accessory.

Portable Grinders:

Know what is behind a workpiece before you do

the job. Do not cut into existing walls or other

blind areas where electrical wiring, water, or gas

pipes may exist. If this situation is unavoidable,

disconnect all fuses/circuit breakers, and shut off

any water and gas lines feeding this work site.

Grinders (Portable and Bench)

Grinders and sanders are highly versatile tools capable of accepting a variety of attachments and accessories that allow

the tool to be used for grinding, sanding, polishing, wire brushing or cutting-off operations. The proper guarding and safety

devices must be used with the accessories (e.g., the proper type of guard used with a certain grinding wheel).
