(2) Operating procedures. Refer to the specific
grinder operator's manual for operating procedures. The
following precautions shall be adhered to in order to
prevent injuries to personnel:
Do not operate grinder unless wearing goggles.
Do not operate grinder unless wheel guards are
attached.
Do not hold material so that fingers will touch grinding
wheel.
Do not grind soft materials such as aluminum or brass
because these materials will clog the pores of the
grinding wheel and stop its cutting action. A clogged or
glazed wheel should be dressed to obtain proper
cutting action.
Under no condition force the work against a cool wheel
without first giving the wheel an opportunity to warm
up. This can cause the wheel to shatter suddenly.
Do not continually use the side of the wheel for
grinding.
