For Machines Mfg. Since 8/09

Model SB1023

7.  Workpiece Contact: A heavy impact on a 

grinding wheel can cause it to break or fly 

apart, causing serious personal injuries. 

Avoid jamming the workpiece into the 

wheel to reduce this risk.

8.  Hand/Wheel Contact: Grinding wheels 

have the capability of removing a lot 

of skin fast. Make sure the workpiece 

is securely clamped to the table, then 

position your hands a safe distance away 

when grinding. Avoid wearing gloves as 

they may get caught in the grinding wheel 

and cause even more serious entanglement 

injuries.

9.  Cracked Wheel: Cracked wheels may break 

and fly apart during operation. Replace 

cracked wheels immediately! 

10.  Fire Hazard: DO NOT connect a surface 

grinder to a dust collection system that is 

used with woodworking machines. Sparks 

emitted from the grinding process may 

ignite wood particles, resulting in fire or 

explosion. Only use a metal-specific dust 

collection system with this machine.

1.  eye Protection: Grinding causes small 

particles to become airborne at a high 

rate of speed. ALWAYS wear eye 

protection when using this machine.

2.  Wheel Speed rating: Wheels operated at 

a faster speed than rated for may break 

or fly apart. Before mounting a new 

wheel, be sure the wheel  

RPM rating is equal or higher than the 

speed of the grinder.

3.  Wheel Flanges: Only use the flanges 

included with the grinder when 

mounting wheels. Other flanges may 

not properly secure the wheel and could 

cause the wheel to fly off or break apart.

4.  ring Test: Perform a "ring test" on 

grinding wheels before installation to 

ensure that they are safe to use. A wheel 

that does not pass the ring test may 

break or fly apart during operation.

5.  Starting Grinder: If a wheel IS damaged, 

it will usually fly apart shortly after 

start-up. To protect yourself, always 

stand to the side of the grinder when 

turning it ON and allow it to gain full 

speed before standing in front of it.

6.  Lung Protection: Grinding produces 

hazardous dust, which may cause long-

term respiratory problems if breathed. 

Always wear a NIOSH approved dust 

mask or respirator when grinding.
