25 - USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult the owner’s manual for recommended accessories.The use of improper
accessories may cause risk of injury to persons. Use only flanges furnished with the grinder. To guarantee the efficient and
consistent operation of your grinder, remember that any worn or broken parts must only be replaced using ORIGINAL SPARE
PARTS.
26 -
USE ONLY RECOMMENDED GRINDING WHEELS, as specified on the table in Figure 7.
27 -
CHECK YOUR MACHINE. Never work with a damaged, poorly repaired, incorrectly fitted, or arbitrarily modified grinder. Do not
remove, damage, or disable any safety device.
28 -
USE RIGHT TOOL. Never use the grinder as a cutter or for grinding objects other than saw chains. Don’t force tool or attachment
to do a job for which it was not designed.
29 -
LEND YOUR GRINDER ONLY TO EXPERT USERS who are familiar with its operation and correct use, and always give them the
instruction manual to read before they start a job.
30 -
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating
and changing accessories.
31 -
STORE YOUR GRINDER IN A DRY PLACE, raised off the ground and out of the reach of children.
32 -
NEVER LET YOUR GRINDER BE EXPOSED TO RAIN OR DAMPNESS.
33 - NEVER USE THE GRINDER IN AN EXPLOSIVE OR INFLAMMABLE ATMOSPHERE.
34 - TAKE THE GRINDER TO YOUR DEALER. When your grinder is not in working order, do not abandon it on the work site or
elsewhere. Take it to your dealer who will store or dispose of it correctly.
35 -
ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR DEALER for any clarification or important maintenance or repair operation.
36 -
NEVER JERK THE CABLE TO DISCONNECT IT FROM THE OUTLET. Keep the cable away from heat, oil, and sharp objects.
37 -
USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure
to use one heavy enough to carry the current you product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating. Table 1 shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If
in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.
HOW TO USE THE ELECTRIC SAW CHAIN GRINDER
! CAUTION - SETTING UP THE GRINDER
1 - 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 inflammable 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 fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified 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 qualified 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 150 volts:
This tool is intended for use on circuit that has an outlet that looks like the one illustrated in sketch A in Figure 1a. The tools has
a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A in Figure 1a. 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 qualified 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.
