The grinder must only be used in a place that is protected from dust and
dampness, that is well-lighted, out of the reach of children, and away from
gasses or other inammable or explosive liquids.
The grinder must be situated near a normal electrical outlet equipped with
earth (grounded).**Avoid using dangerous extension cables.
**GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS.
A. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped
with an electric cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not t the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualied electrician.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green
with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor . If repair or
replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary , do not connect the equipment-
grounding conductor to a live terminal.
Check with a qualied electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions
are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly
grounded.
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding plugs and 3-pole
receptacles that accept the tool’s plug. Repair or replace damaged or worn cord
immediately .
B. Grounded, cord-connected tools intended for use on a supply circuit having a
nominal rating less than 150V~. This tool is intended for use on circuit that has an
outlet that looks like the one illustrated in sketch A in gure. The tools has a grounding
plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A in gure. A temporary adapter ,
which looks like the adapter illustrated in sketches B and C, may be used to connect
this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly grounded outlet is
not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded
outlet can be installed by a qualied electrician. The green-colored rigid ear , lug, and
the like, extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such
as a properly grounded outlet box.

9. SAFETY DEVICES
The grinder is equipped with the safety devices illustrated hereafter:
- Shield guards: they protect the operator from parts of the grinding wheel that may
come away during the sharpening process.
These guards must always be tted in place when the machine is in use.
Always make sure the guards are efcient and tted properly . Operator safety could
be compromised if the guards are damaged and/or cracked.
- Switch: the machine features a safety switch with release coil. In the case of a
sudden power failure, the switch trips automatically and disconnects the machine
from the mains. The machine will not start even if the power supply is suddenly
restored. Y ou need to reset the switch to start the machine again.
- Lock pin: this is used to block the arm in the completely raised position.
When the pin is loosened, the arm is blocked. This condition is required when ad-
justing the sharpening angles, when replacing and dressing the grinding wheel.
When the pin is tightened, the arm is free to move. This condition is required during
the sharpening process.
