FOR UTILITY SHARPENERS

4.
The operation of the Utility Sharpener can result in debris being
thrown into your eyes, which can result in severe eye damage.
ALWAYS wear Safety Goggles (that comply with ANSI standard
Z87.1) when operating the Utility Sharpener. Safety Goggles are
available at Sears Retail Stores. Keep your thumbs and fingers
away from the grinding wheels.
THE UTILITY SHARPENER MAY PRODUCE SPARKS AND DEBRIS DURING
GRINDING OPERATIONS. Be sure that there are not any flammable materials in
the vicinity.
NEVER FORCE THE WORKPIECE AGAINST A GRINDING WHEEL, especially
if the wheel is cold. Apply the workpiece slowly, allowing the grinding wheel
an opportunity to warm up. This will minimize the chance of wheel breakage.
DO NOT grind using the sides of the grinding wheels. DO NOT apply coolant
directly to the grinding wheel.
THE DIAMETER OF THE GRINDING WHEEL WILL DECREASE WITH USE.
Adjust the tool rests to maintain a distance of 1/8" or less from the wheel.
KEEP ALL TOOL RESTS IN PLACE. DO NOT USE THE UTILITY SHARPENER
WITH THE TOOL RESTS REMOVED. KEEP THE TOOL RESTS FIRMLY
TIGHTENED.
