2. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Explanation of symbols
Denotes risk of personal injury, loss of life
or damage to the tool in case of non
observance of the instructions in this
manual.
Indicates the presence of an electrical
voltage.
Keep bystanders away.
Wear eye and ear protection.
Special safety instructions
When using the machine for the first time:
• Check te following:
• Does the voltage rating of the bench grinder
correspond to the power supply?
• Is an earthed mains power socket
available?
• Are the power cord and plug in good
condition (solid, without fraying or other
damage)?
• Avoid the use of long extension cords. The
extension cords you use must always be
earthed.
• A grinding wheel is a brittle toolpiece. The
stone is not resistant to knocks.
• Always grind on the front edge of the grinding
wheel, and never on the side of the grinding
wheel. Never fit a cracked grinding wheel.
Replace it immediately, as the high rotational
speed could cause the stone to fly apart,
causing a serious accident.
• Always wear safety glasses when grinding.
• Never grind without the cover fitted over the
grinding wheel.
• Always fit the grinding wheel cover and tool
rest tightly, and with the correct clearance.
• Never allow more than 1-1.5 mm clearance
between tool rest and grinding wheel.
• Only use the grinding wheel for the work it was
designed for (for example sharpening tools),
and NOT for heavy construction work.

• The following information must be available,
before you fit any new grinding wheel:
• Details about the manufacturer.
• Binding material.
• Dimensions.
• Permissible rotational speed.
• Never ream out the hole in a grinding wheel to
a larger diameter.
• The maximum rotational speed of the grinding
wheel should never be allowed to exceed the
maximum speed given for the wheel.
• Never use any grinding wheel that is damaged
or deformed.
• In order to be able to grind safely, the machine
must be firmly bolted to a workbench.
• The tool rest should be replaced whenever the
width of the tool rest measures less than 20
mm.
• The recommended depth of the recess in the
flange (T) is 2 mm and the diameter of the
spindle hole is 13 mm (see Fig. B).
Whenever using the machine
• Check that the switch is NOT in the 'ON/1'
position before connecting the machine to the
power supply.
• Always keep the power cord out of the way of
the tool's moving parts.
Immediately switch off the machine when:
• The plug or power cord is defective or
damaged.
• The switch is defective.
• You smell smoke or burning insulation
Electrical safety
When using electric machines always observe the
safety regulations applicable in your country to
reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and personal
injury. Read the following safety instructions and
also the enclosed safety instructions.
Always check that the power supply
corresponds to the voltage on the rating
plate.
Replacing cables or plugs
Immediately throw away old cables or plugs
when they have been replaced by new ones. It is
dangerous to insert the plug of a loose cable in
the wall outlet.
