9Ensure that the workpiece is secure before operating the grinder. Never hold a workpiece by hand.
9Check the workpiece to ensure there are no protruding screws, bolts, nuts etc.
9Avoid unintentional starting.
WARNING! Ensure correct air pressure is maintained and not exceeded. Recommended pressure 70-90psi.
9Keep air hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check air hose for wear before each use and ensure that all connections are
secure.
9Prolonged exposure to vibration from this grinder poses a health risk. It is the owner’s responsibility to correctly assess the potential
hazard and issue guidelines for safe periods of use and offer suitable protective equipment.
8DO NOT use the grinder for a task it is not designed to perform.
8DO NOT operate grinder if any parts are damaged or missing as this may cause failure and/or personal injury.
WARNING! DO NOT grind any materials containing asbestos.
8DO NOT carry the grinder by the hose, or yank the hose from the air supply.
8DO NOT force, or apply heavy pressure to, the grinder, let the tool do the work.
8DO NOT place air line attachments close to your face and do not point them at other people or animals.
8DO NOT operate grinder when you are tired or under the influence of alcohol, drugs or intoxicating medication.
8DO NOT use the grinder where there are flammable liquids, solids or gases, such as paint solvents and including waste wiping
or cleaning rags etc.
8DO NOT carry the grinder with your finger on the power lever.
8DO NOT direct air from the air line at yourself or others.
9When not in use disconnect from air supply and store in a safe, dry, childproof location.
DANGER OF FIRE/EXPLOSION HAZARD
WARNING! The grinding process can produce streams of sparks which are a potential source of ignition especially when
grinding metal.
8DO NOT use the grinder where there are flammable liquids, solids or gases.
8DO NOT allow grinder sparks to make contact with the operator’s clothing or any other fabric such as cleaning rags.
Fabrics contaminated with inflammable materials such as petrol, oil, grease, paint and solvents are a particular fire hazard.
9To reduce the risk of clothing catching fire the operator should wear wool or cotton outer garments treated with a fire
retardant in preference to man-made fibres.

4. PREPARING THE GRINDER
4.1. Air Supply
Recommended hook-up is shown in fig.1.
WARNING! Ensure the air supply is clean and does not exceed 90 psi while operating the grinder. Too high an air pressure and/or
unclean air will cause excessive wear, and may be dangerous, causing damage and/or personal injury.
4.1.1. Ensure that the grinder air valve (or throttle) is in the “off” position before connecting to the air supply.
4.1.2. You will require an air pressure between 70-90psi, and an air flow according to the specification above.
4.1.3. Drain the air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the grinder and invalidate your warranty.
4.1.4. Clean air inlet filter weekly.
4.1.5. Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8 metres). The minimum hose diameter should be
1/4” I.D. and fittings must have the same inside dimensions.
4.1.6. Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check hoses for wear, and make certain that all connections are secure.
4.2. COUPLINGS
4.2.1. Vibration may cause failure if a quick change coupling is connected directly to the grinder. To prevent this, connect a leader hose -
Sealey model number AH2R or AH2R/38 - to the grinder. A quick change coupling may then be used to connect the leader hose to
the air line recoil hose. See gs. 1 & 2.
1.2. LEAD PAINT WARNING!
Paint once contained lead as a traditional ingredient. Contact with the dust from the removal of such paint is toxic and must
therefore be avoided. The following action must be taken before using the grinder on a surface that you suspect may contain
lead paint.
1. User must determine potential hazard relating to age of paint to be removed (modern paints do not have lead content).
2. DANGER! Keep all people and pets away from the working area. The following are particularly vulnerable to the effects of lead
paint dust: Pregnant women, babies and children.
3. We recommend personal protection by using the following safety items:
a) Paint Spray Respirator (Our ref SSP1699)
b) PE Coated Hooded Coverall (Our ref SSP267).
c) Latex Gloves (Our ref SSP24).
4. Take adequate measures to contain the paint dust, flakes and scrapings.
5. Continue to wear safety equipment as in (3) above and thoroughly clean all areas when work is complete. Ensure that paint
waste is disposed of in sealed bags or containers according to local regulations.

5. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! Ensure that you read, understand and apply the safety
instructions before use.
5.1. ASSEMBLY
5.1.1. The SA152 comes with a handle and a spanner.
5.1.2. The handle screws into the left-hand side of the head.
5.1.3. Remove the disc locking ange nut from the grinder spindle. Use the spindle
stop button and the spanner supplied to hold the spindle and loosen/tighten
the lock nut.
5.1.4. Fit the grinding disc over the spindle (with the protruding side downwards)
and retain it with the ange nut. Use only discs with speed ratings equal to, or
higher than, the speed rating of the grinder.
5.1.5. Connect air supply to grinder and squeeze the throttle lever (4) to check
that the grinder is working correctly.
5.2. OPERATING
8DO NOT apply excessive pressure, let the grinder do the work for you. Start the grinder and bring the disc to the work surface evenly
and slowly. Move the grinder back and forth in overlapping areas.
9Remove the grinding disc from the work surface before stopping the grinder. Regularly check the condition of the disc and always
change if worn, cracked or otherwise damaged.
8DO NOT run the grinder off the workpiece for extended periods. This will shorten the life of the bearings.
6. MAINTENANCE
WARNING! Disconnect the grinder from air supply before changing the disc, servicing or performing maintenance. Replace or repair
damaged parts. Use genuine parts only. Unauthorised parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
6.1. Lubricate the grinder daily with a few drops of good grade air tool oil, such as Sealey ATO/500 or ATO/1000, dripped into the air inlet
before use or dispensed automatically through an air system oiler, such as Sealey model SA2001/L.
6.2. Clean the grinder after use and change the disc when worn or damaged.
6.3. Loss of power or erratic action may be due to the following:
a) Excessive drain on the air supply. Moisture or restriction in the air line. Incorrect size or type of hose connectors. To remedy, check the
air supply and follow instructions in Section 4.
b) Grit or gum deposits in the grinder may also reduce performance. Flush the grinder with gum solvent oil or an equal mixture of SAE No
10 oil and kerosene. Allow to dry before use. If you continue to experience problems, contact your local Sealey service agent.
6.4. When not in use, disconnect from air supply, clean grinder and store in a safe, dry, childproof location.
