1. SAFETY 1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY.

WARNING! It is the users responsibility to check the following: Check all electrical equipment and appliances to ensure that they are safe before using. Inspect power supply leads, plugs and all electrical connections for wear and damage. Sealey recommend that an RCD (Residual Current Device) is used with all electrical products. You may obtain an RCD by contacting your local Sealey stockist. If the product is used in the course of business duties, it must be maintained in a safe condition and routinely PAT (Portable Appliance Test) tested. Electrical safety information: it is important that the following information is read and understood.

1.1.1. Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply. 1.1.2. Regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or damage and check all connections to ensure that they are secure. 1.1.3. Important: Ensure that the voltage rating on the appliance suits the power supply to be used and that the plug is fitted with the

correct fuse - see fuse rating in these instructions. 8 DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by the power cable. 8 DO NOT pull the plug from the socket by the cable. 8 DO NOT use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors. Ensure that any faulty item is repaired or

replaced immediately by a qualified electrician. 1.1.4. This product is fitted with a BS1363/A 13 Amp 3 pin plug. If the cable or plug is damaged during use, switch the electricity supply and remove from use. Ensure that repairs are carried out by a qualified electrician.

A) Connect the GREEN/YELLOW earth wire to the earth terminal E. B) Connect the BROWN live wire to the live terminal L. C) Connect the BLUE neutral wire to the neutral terminal N.

Ensure that the cable outer sheath extends inside the cable restraint and that the restraint is tight. Sealey recommend that repairs are carried out by a qualified electrician.

9 Cable extension reels. When a cable extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before connection. A cable reel with an RCD fitted is recommended since any product which is plugged into the cable reel will be protected. The section of the cores of the cable is important. We suggest 1.5mm section cable as a minimum, but to be absolutely sure that the capacity of the cable reel is suitable for this product and for others that may be used in the other output sockets, we recommend the use of 2.5mm section cable. 1.2.

If damaged

replace immediately. 9 Ensure replacement wheel is not damaged in any way such as cracks, deformations or splinters etc. Also check the mounting flanges

for deformation, burrs or chips. Damaged flanges must NOT be used as they may produce high stresses in the wheel causing it to break. DO NOT over tighten a wheel. Never tamper with a wheel in order to adapt it to a different size shaft.

WARNING! INSPECT THE GRINDER BEFORE USE. ENSURE THE GRINDER IS UNPLUGGED FROM THE MAINS POWER BEFORE COMMENCING THE INSPECTION.

6.1.1. Check the tool rests are securely fixed and are not more than 2mm from the grinding wheels. 6.1.2. Check that eye shields are in good condition, secure and that you can see through them clearly. 6.1.3. Turn the grinding wheels by hand and check for any damage. Check they do not touch the tool rests and are correctly aligned. If any of the above checks fail, replace, repair, or adjust as necessary before starting the grinder. 6.2. WHEEL USE. The grinder is supplied with two aluminium oxide wheels, one course and one fine. Fine is preferred for hard materials and coarse for soft materials. If the surface of wheel becomes loaded (coated with particles of the material being ground) it is probably the wrong grade for the job.
