grinding tips
the grinder is a safe tool when used prop-
erly. in addition to the safety instructions
in this manual, the most important safety
consideration is to use common sense at
all times. What may be okay in one situa-
tion may not be safe in another.
here are some tips to keep in mind
while grinding:
• always be sure the grinding wheel is
wet before grinding by filling the reser-
voir.
• Wear the proper protective clothing.
safety glasses/face shield and a dust
mask should be worn when using this
machine.
• grasp the workpiece firmly and prop-
erly support it on the universal support/
tool rest during grinding. Maintain even
pressure and control of the workpiece
when grinding.
• Concentrate on the task at hand. stop
grinding if other people are distracting
you or your mind is on something else.

result from using this machine with-
out proper protective gear. always
wear safety glasses/face shield and

although the model t10097 Wet

cally for slow rotation, there is still the
possibility that blades and tools being

between the grinder and areas where
others are working. always wear safe-
ty glasses and keep the universal
support in the proper position when
