IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

General Power Tool Safety Warnings

Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term 'power tool' in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1. Work area safety
   1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
   2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
   3. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2. Electrical safety
   1. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
   2. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
   3. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
   4. Do not abuse the cord. never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
   5. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
   6. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFci) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

3. Personal safety
   1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
   2. Use personal protective equipment. always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
   3. Prevent unintentional starting. ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
   4. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
   5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
   6. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
   7. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
   8. Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
   9. Only use safety equipment that has been approved by an appropriate standards agency. Unapproved safety equipment may not provide adequate protection. Eye protection must be ANSI‑approved and breathing protection must be NIOSH‑approved for the specific hazards in the work area.
   10. Avoid unintentional starting. Prepare to begin work before turning on the tool.
   11. Do not leave the tool unattended when it is plugged into an electrical outlet. Turn off the tool, and unplug it from its electrical outlet before leaving.
   12. This product is not a toy. Keep it out of reach of children.
   13. People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields in close proximity to heart pacemaker could cause pacemaker interference or pacemaker failure. In addition, people with pacemakers should:
       • Avoid operating alone.
       • Properly maintain and inspect to avoid electrical shock.
       • Properly ground power cord.
         Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) should also be implemented – it prevents sustained electrical shock.
   14. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
   15. The warnings, precautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.

4. Power tool use and care
   1. Do not force the power tool. use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
   2. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
   3. Disconnect the plug from the power and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
   4. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
   5. Maintain power tools and accessories. check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool's operation. if damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
   6. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
   7. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
   8. Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.

5. Service
   1. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
   2. Maintain labels and nameplates on the tool. These carry important safety information. If unreadable or missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for a replacement.
   3. When servicing use only identical replacement parts.
6. Bench Grinder safety warnings
   1. Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use, inspect the accessory such as abrasive wheels for chips and cracks. after inspecting and installing an accessory, position yourself and bystanders away from the plane of the rotating accessory and run the power tool at maximum no-load speed for one minute. Damaged accessories will normally break apart during this test time.
   2. The rated speed of the accessory must be at least equal to the maximum speed marked on the power tool. Accessories running faster than their rated speed can break and fly apart.
   3. Never grind on the sides of a grinding wheel. Grinding on the side can cause the wheel to break and fly apart.
7. Belt Sander safety warnings
   1. Wear eye protection.
   2. Support workpiece with miter gauge, work stop, or worktable.
   3. The work stop is a fence near the sanding surface that helps the operator maintain control of the workpiece and prevents the workpiece from being pulled into the machine. For safety, it must be adjusted very close to the sanding surface.
   4. The sanding belt is designed to rotate down towards the table. Sand on the belt with the workpiece in front of the work stop.
   5. The use of accessories or attachments not recommended by the manufacturer may result in a risk of injury to persons.
   6. Industrial applications must follow OSHA guidelines.
   7. Avoid unintentional starting. Prepare to begin work before turning on the tool.
8. Vibration Safety
   This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long‑term exposure to vibration may cause temporary or permanent physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms and shoulders. To reduce the risk of vibration‑related injury:
   1. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an extended period should first be examined by a doctor and then have regular medical check‑ups to ensure medical problems are not being caused or worsened from use. Pregnant women or people who have impaired blood circulation to the hand, past hand injuries, nervous system disorders, diabetes, or Raynaud's Disease should not use this tool. If you feel any symptoms related to vibration (such as tingling, numbness, and white or blue fingers), seek medical advice as soon as possible.
   2. Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces the blood supply to the hands and fingers, increasing the risk of vibration‑related injury.
   3. Wear suitable gloves to reduce the vibration effects on the user.
   4. Use tools with the lowest vibration when there is a choice.
   5. Include vibration‑free periods each day of work.
   6. Grip tool as lightly as possible (while still keeping safe control of it). Let the tool do the work.
   7. To reduce vibration, maintain the tool as explained in this manual. If any abnormal vibration occurs, stop use immediately.

Grounding

TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK AND DEATH FROM INCORRECT GROUNDING WIRE CONNECTION:
Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the power cord plug provided with the tool. Never remove the grounding prong from the plug. Do not use the tool if the power cord or plug is damaged. If damaged, have it repaired by a service facility before use. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Grounded Tools: Tools with Three Prong Plugs

3-Prong Plug and Outlet

1. Tools marked with "Grounding Required" have a three wire cord and three prong grounding plug. The plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. If the tool should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user, reducing the risk of electric shock. (See 3-Prong Plug and Outlet.)
2. The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the cord to the grounding system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must be the only wire connected to the tool's grounding system and must never be attached to an electrically "live" terminal. (See 3-Prong Plug and Outlet.)
3. The tool must be plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. The plug and outlet should look like those in the preceding illustration. (See 3-Prong Plug and Outlet.)

Double Insulated Tools: Tools with Two Prong Plugs

Outlets for 2-Prong Plug

1. Tools marked "Double Insulated" do not require grounding. They have a special double insulation system which satisfies OSHA requirements and complies with the applicable standards of Underwriters Laboratories, Inc., the Canadian Standard Association, and the National Electrical Code.
2. Double insulated tools may be used in either of the 120 volt outlets shown in the preceding illustration. (See Outlets for 2-prong plug.)

Extension Cords

1. Grounded tools require a three wire extension cord. Double Insulated tools can use either a two or three wire extension cord.
2. As the distance from the supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge extension cord. Using extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible tool damage. (See table A.)
3. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord. For example, a 14 gauge cord can carry a higher current than a 16 gauge cord. (See table A.)
4. When using more than one extension cord to make up the total length, make sure each cord contains at least the minimum wire size required. (See table A.)
5. If you are using one extension cord for more than one tool, add the nameplate amperes and use the sum to determine the required minimum cord size. (See table A.)
6. If you are using an extension cord outdoors, make sure it is marked with the suffix "W‑A" ("W" in Canada) to indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.
7. Make sure the extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified electrician before using it.
8. Protect the extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.

Replacing a Grinding Wheel

1. The Grinding Wheel MUST be:
   • rated to at least 3580 RPM.
   • no larger than 8" (203.2 mm) in diameter.
   • fitted with a 5/8" round arbor hole.
   • 1" thick.
   • suitable for edge grinding, not surface grinding.
   • dry and clean.
   • proven undamaged by inspection and by the ring‑test explained below.

2. Fully loosen the Locking Screws (1) (the screws will stay in place, attached to the locking nut), turn the Wheel Guard Cover (2) counterclockwise to remove the Cover and expose the Grinding Wheel (5).
3. Place a small wooden wedge between the Grinding Wheel and Work Rest to prevent Wheel from rotating.
4. Remove the M16 Lock Nut (3) securing the Grinding Wheel by turning it clockwise with a wrench (not included).
   
   
5. Remove the Outer Flange (4) and remove Grinding Wheel. Keep the Inner Flange in position on the Spindle.
6. Closely inspect the grinding wheel before mounting. Perform a ring‑test on the wheel (unless wheel is smaller than 4" or is an unusual shape) as follows:
   1. Suspend wheel using a dowel or finger through the arbor hole.
      
      
   2. Tap the flat side of the wheel with a light non‑metallic object, such as a screwdriver handle, at a point 45° from the vertical center line on each side of the wheel and 1 – 2 inches from the edge of the wheel (see Illustration).
   3. Rotate the wheel 90° and repeat the test until the entire wheel has been checked.
   4. An undamaged wheel will give a clear tone. If cracked, there will be a dead sound and not a clear ring.

7. For wheels with paper gaskets (blotters) or metal gaskets: Slip the grinding wheel onto the Spindle with the gasket first. The gasket should be centered on the grinding wheel and the wheel and gasket should rest flat against the Inner Flange.
   
   To prevent serious injury, gaskets must be used for all grinding wheels they are provided with. Gaskets help prevent grinding wheel damage and wheel slippage, causes of wheel failure.
8. Install the new grinding wheel and place the Outer Flange in position on the Spindle.
9. Thread the M16 Lock Nut onto the Spindle. Wrench tighten only enough so that the wheel is securely held on the Spindle.
