construction activities, contain chemicals known [to the State of California] to cause cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are: A) Lead
from lead-based paints, B) Crystalline silica from bricks and cement or other masonry prod-
ucts, C) Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber. Your risk from these expo-
sures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment,
such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

Safety Instructions for Bench Grinder and Buffer
1.
When grinding any metals, the grinder can produce sparks which may land on your
clothing, or hit your face. You should use a full face mask. Also ensure that you are
not operating the grinder around flammable materials or liquids. Always make sure
the safety shields and wheel guards are in place at all times.
2.
Make sure the grinding wheels are of the proper speed (RPM) rating.
3.
Frequently quench the workpiece in water to prevent overheating.
4.
Use the tool rest to steady the work piece. If the tool rest is not used, the torque of the
spinning grinding wheel may pull the workpiece from your hands.
5.
Do not use aluminum oxide wheels when grinding nonferrous metals such as
aluminum and brass. Use silicon carbide wheels for nonferrous metals.
6.
When buffing material, always hold the material on the lower side of the buffing wheel.
Assemble and install the tool rest and safety shield with the hardware provided. Refer to the
Assembly Drawing. Before operation this tool should be securely mounted on a stable work
surface or stand with four screws or bolts (not supplied).
