Do not use the power tool if the switch cannot turn it on and off. A power tool with a broken
switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source before making adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
Store power tools, when not in use, out of the reach of children and do not allow people
who are not familiar with the power tool or these instructions to operate it. Power tools are
potentially dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintenance. Check for misalignment or jammed moving parts, breakages or any other
feature that might affect the operation of the power tool. If it is damaged, the power tool
must be repaired. Many accidents are caused by using poorly maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to jam and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories and cutting tools, etc., in accordance with these
instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into
account the working conditions and the work which needs to be done. Using a power tool
in ways for which it was not intended can lead to potentially hazardous situations.
5.5 Service
Your power tool should be serviced by a qualified specialist using only standard spare
parts. This will ensure that it meets the required safety standards.
6 ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR BENCH GRINDERS
The machine is equipped with a three-core power supply cable and a plug with an earth
pin. It is therefore essential that it should be plugged into a standard socket, properly
earthed and protected upstream against overloads (by a 16 A fuse or a 16 A magneto
thermal safety device). If you use an extension cable, make sure it is also three-core with
earth.
The supply cable is intended for normal conditions of use. It is designed to resist normal
mechanical stresses. Do not make loops in the cable or put objects which might damage it
on top of it. Also make sure that the cable does not come into contact with any liquid or
any source of heat and that it is not used in a damp environment. Do not withdraw the plug
from the socket by pulling on the cable.
Before any maintenance operation, manipulation or any intervention on the machine (such
as assembly, disassembly, adjustment, etc), always disconnect the power supply plug and
wait until the machine has come to a standstill.
It is compulsory to wear certified gloves and protective goggles when using the device.
Never use the machine without its protective guard and "spark guards".
Always check that the work supports are firmly fixed before using the machine.
As the wheel wears down, adjust the work support and screen slide:
− 1.5 mm between the work support and the wheel;
− 2 mm between the slide and the wheel.
When using the grinder, stand in a stable, balanced position, without stretching, and keep
children at a distance.
Never leave the machine running unsupervised. Keep the workshop clean and tidy.
Before use, make sure the grinding wheels are not damaged or cracked. If there is the
slightest doubt, replace at once (a damaged grinding wheel can fly apart at speed).
Replacement grinding wheels must be identical in characteristics and dimensions.
This machine is not suitable for grinding soft substances such as lead, magnesium or light
alloys.
