3. Replace cracked wheel immediately.
4. Always use guards and eye shields.
5. Do not overtighten wheel nut.
6. Use only flanges furnished with the grinder.
7. Adjust distance between wheel and work rest to

diameter of the wheel decreases with use.
8. Frequently clean grinding dust from beneath grinder.
9. Wear a full face shield over ANSI-approved
safety goggles during use.
10. Do not grind with side of wheel unless wheel is
specifically designed for that type of grinding.

recommended by the manufacturer may
result in a risk of injury to persons.
13. When servicing use only identical replacement parts.
14. 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.
15. 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.
16. Industrial applications must follow OSHA guidelines.
17. Maintain labels and nameplates on the tool.
These carry important safety information.
If unreadable or missing, contact
Harbor Freight Tools for a replacement.
18. Avoid unintentional starting.
Prepare to begin work before turning on the tool.
19. 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.
20. WARNING: Some dust created by power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities, contains chemicals
known [to the State of California] to cause
cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement or other
masonry products
• Arsenic and chromium from
chemically treated lumber
Your risk from these exposures 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.
(California Health & Safety Code § 25249.5, et seq.)
21. WARNING: Handling the cord on this product will
expose you to lead, a chemical known to the State
of California to cause cancer, and birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
(California Health & Safety Code § 25249.5, et seq.)
22. The warnings, precautions, and instructions
discussed in this instruction manual cannot cover all
