TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

GENERAL SAFETY RULES

WARNING: Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric

shock, fire and/or serious injury.

WARNING: The warnings, cautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot cover all possible

conditions or situations that could occur. It must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which

cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WORK AREA

· Keep work area clean, free of clutter and well lit. Cluttered and dark work areas can cause accidents.

· Do not use your sharpener where there is a risk of causing a fire or an explosion; e.g. in the presence of flammable liquids, gasses,

or dust. Power tools create sparks, which may ignite the dust or fumes.

· Keep children and bystanders away while operating the sharpener. Distractions can cause you to lose control, so visitors should

remain at a safe distance from the work area.

· Be alert of your surroundings. Using the sharpener in confined work areas may put you dangerously close to cutting tools and rotating

Parts.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

· WARNING! Always check to ensure the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.

· Do not abuse the cord. Never carry your sharpener by its power cord, or yank tool or extension cords from the receptacle. Keep power

and extension cords away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords may cause

a fire and increase the risk of electric shock.

·Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never

remove the grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in

doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.

· Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only

one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still doesn't fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized

outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

·Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increase risk of electric

shock if your body is grounded.

· When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or "W." These cords are rated for outdoor use

and reduce the risk of electric shock.

· Extension Cord Use.

A. Use only 'Listed' extension cords. If used outdoors, they must be marked "For Outdoor Use." Those cords having 3-prong grounding

type plugs and mating receptacles are to be used with grounded tools.

B. Replace damaged or worn cords immediately.

C. Check the name plate rating of your tool. Use of improper size or gauge of extension cord may cause unsafe or inefficient operation of

your tool. Be sure your extension cord is rated to allow sufficient current flow to the motor. For the proper wire gauge for your tool, see

chart.

If in doubt, use larger cord.

Be sure to check voltage requirements of the tool to your incoming power source.

· Do not expose the sharpener to rain or wet conditions. Water entering the sharpener will increase the risk of electric shock.

· Do not let your fingers touch the terminals of plug when installing to or removing from the outlet.

· Ground fault circuit interrupters. If work area is not equipped with a permanently installed Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter outlet (GFCI),

use a plug-in GFCI between power tool or extension cord and power receptacle.

PERSONAL SAFETY

· Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating the shapener. Do not use the 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.

· Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing, dangling objects, or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts.

Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts. Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided.

· Use safety apparel and equipment. Use safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields which comply with current national standards,

or when needed, a face shield. Use as dust mask in dusty work conditions. This applies to all persons in the work area. Also use non-skid

safety shoes, hardhat, gloves, dust collection systems, and hearing protection when appropriate.

· Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before plugging tool into power outlet. In the event of a power failure,

while a tool is being used, turn the switch off to prevent surprise starting when power is restored.

· Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

· Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before connecting to the power supply or turning on the tool. A wrench or key that is left attached to

a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.

TOOL USE AND CARE

· Do not force the sharpener. Tools do a better and safer job when used in the manner for which they are designed. Plan your work,

and use the correct tool for the job.

· Never use a sharpener with a malfunctioning switch. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be

repaired by an authorized service representative before using.

· Disconnect power from sharpener and place the switch in the locked or off position before servicing, adjusting, installing

accessories or attachments, or storing. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

· Store idle sharpeners. When tools are not in use, store them in a dry, secure place out of the reach of children. Inspect tools for

good working condition prior to storage and before re-use.

· Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool

may create a risk of injury when used on another tool.

· Never touch the moving grinding wheel.

· The sharpener's motor is specially rated for intermittent use 15 minutes continuous use.

· Do not attach modules when the grinding wheel is moving.

· Do not use the grinding wheel without a module in place.

· Keep guards in place and in working order.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Make sure this tool is disconnected from its power source before attempting any maintenance, cleaning, or inspection.

·Maintain your sharpener. It is recommended that the general condition of any tool be examined before it is used. Keep your tools in good

repair by adopting a program of conscientious repair and maintenance in accordance with the recommended procedures found in this

manual. If any abnormal vibrations or noise occurs, turn the tool off immediately and have the problem corrected before further use. Have

necessary repairs made by qualified service personnel.

·Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to

control. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.

·Cleaning. Keep your sharpener clean and free from oil and grease. Use only soap and a damp cloth to clean your tools. Many household

cleaners are harmful to plastics and other insulation. Never let liquid get inside a tool.

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 and other masonry products, and 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.
