Porter-Cable PCXB515BG Instruction Manual page 7

24. FREQUENTLY clean grinding dust from
beneath the grinder.
25. DO NOT OPERATE THIS TOOL WHILE
UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS,
ALCOHOL OR ANY MEDICATION.
26. ALWAYS STAY ALERT. Do not allow
familiarity (gained from frequent use of
your grinder) to cause a careless mistake.
ALWAYS REMEMBER that a careless
fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict
severe injury.
27. STAY ALERT AND EXERCISE
CONTROL. Watch what you are doing
and use common sense. Do not operate
the tool when you are tired. Do not rush.
28. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. Refer to
them frequently and use them to instruct
other users. If you loan someone this tool,
loan them these instructions also.
29. ALWAYS EASE THE WORKPIECE
AGAINST THE ABRASIVE WHEEL
when starting to grind. A harsh impact can
break the wheel. Use light pressure when
starting to grind. Too much pressure on a
cold wheel can cause the wheel to crack.
30. USE ONLY FLANGES furnished with this
bench grinder.
31. IF ANY PART OF THIS GRINDER IS
MISSING or should break, bend, fail
in any way, or should any electrical
component fail to perform properly,
shut off the power switch, remove the
machine plug from the power surce and
have damaged, missing, or failed parts
replaced before resuming operation.
32. SAFETY SHIELD AND SPARK
DEFLECTOR. The safety shields and
spark deflectors are adjustable for
operator convenience. Operating the
grinder without these features attached
could result in serious injury. Do not grind
with the safety shield raised. Always wear
safety glasses for personal protection.
33. WORK REST. The work rests are
independently adjustable to compensate
for wheel wear. Before grinding, make
certain the work rests are adjusted
properly. Generally, the object being
ground is done slightly above the center
of the grinding wheel.
34. Lawn mower blades are usually
sharpened on only one edge and dressed
up slightly on the other. Perform this
sharpening process on both cutting ends
of the blade. After sharpening, balance
the blade by removing additional material.
