11. Make sure the RPM rating of grinding wheels and
attachments do not exceed the rated speed of the
tool.
12. Protect yourself from noise. Noise
levels vary with work surface. Wear
ear protectors.
13. Wear gloves and protective clothing to avoid injuries
caused by chips or pieces, malfunctioning
accessories, or improperly clamped work.
14. When possible, secure work with clamps or vise so
both hands are free to operate tool.
15. Correct grinding wheel mounting is necessary to
prevent injury from broken wheels. Do not use
chipped or cracked grinding wheels. Grinding wheels
should be a free fit on the spindle to prevent stress
at the hole. Use only wheel collars that come with
the grinder for mounting the grinding wheel. Flat
washers or other adapters may over stress the wheel.
Always use heavy paper blotter discs between the
wheel collars and the grinding wheel. Tighten the
wheel on the spindle to prevent spin off when the
air grinder is turned off.
1. Always wear approved eye protection.
Face or dust mask is recommended
when grinding operation creates dust
and grinding material.
2. Have throttle trigger in “OFF” position when
connecting to air supply.
3. Disconnect tool before performing service or when
not in use.
4. Always use tool a safe distance from other people in
work area.
5. Maintain tools with care. Keep tools clean and oiled
for best and safest performance. Follow instructions
for lubricating and changing accessories. Wiping or
cleaning rags and other flammable waste materials
must be placed in a tightly closed metal container
and disposed of later in the proper fashion.
6. Do not wear loose or ill-fitting clothing, remove
watches and rings.
7. Never use quick change couplings at tool. They add
weight and could fail due to vibration. Instead, add
a hose whip and connect coupling between air
supply, and hose whip, or between hose whip and
leader hose.
8. Don’t over reach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times.
9. Don’t force tool. It will do the job better and safer at
the rate for which it was designed.
10. Don’t abuse hoses or connectors.
Never carry tool by the hose or yank
it to disconnect from power supply.
Keep hoses from heat, oil and sharp
edges. Check hoses for weak or worn
condition before each use, making certain that all
connections are secure.
