IMPORTANT SAFETY MESSAGE FOR OWNERS/OPERATORS OF REEL GRINDERS
Safety is a primary concern in the design,
manufacture, sale, and use of reel grinders. As
a manufacturer of reel grinders, we want to confirm
to you, our customers, our concern for safety. We also
want to remind you about the simple, basic, and
common sense rules of safety when using a reel
grinder. Failure to follow these rules can result in
severe injury or death to operators or bystanders.
It is essential that everyone involved in the assembly,
operation, transport, maintenance, and storage of this
equipment be aware, concerned, prudent, and
properly trained in safety. Always use proper
shielding as specified by the manufacturer.
Our current production machines include, as
standard equipment, guards or shields for the
grinding wheel, safety signs and an operator's
manual. Never bypass or operate the machine with
any of the guards or the safety devices removed.
Read and fully understand all the safety
practices discussed on pages 4 and 5 of this
manual. All safety rules must be understood
and followed by anyone who works with reel
grinders.
Before operating a reel grinder, an operator must
read and understand all of the information in the
operator’s manual and in the safety signs attached
to the product. A person who has not read or
understood the operator’s manual and safety signs
is not qualified to operate the unit. Accidents occur
often on machines that are used by someone who
has not read the operator’s manual and is not
familiar with the equipment. If you do not have an
operator’s manual or the current production safety
signs, contact the manufacturer or your dealer
immediately.
Reel grinders are designed for one-man operation.
Never operate the grinder with anyone near, or in
contact with, any part of the grinder. Be sure no one
else, including bystanders, are near you when you
operate this product.
Following these simple, basic safety rules, as well
as others identified in the owner’s manual and in the
product safety signs, will help minimize the
possibility of accidents and increase your
productivity in using this product. Be careful and
make sure that everyone who operates the grinder
knows and understands that this is a very powerful
piece of machinery, and if used improperly, serious
injury or death may result. The final responsibility for
safety rests with the operator of this machine.
