ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR NOVA VERSATURN™
GRINDING WHEEL:
!
Warning! Failure to follow these rules may result in serious personal injury.
1. ALWAYS USE THE PROVIDED WHEEL FLANGES to mount grinding wheels on
the NOVA VERSATURN Grinder Accessory Attachment shaft to prevent wheel
damage or separation. Separation of the grinding wheel can result in fragments flying off
the wheel at high speeds possibly causing severe injuries.
2. USE ONLY GRINDING WHEELS AND METAL WIRE BRUSHES that are designed for
the speed of the NOVA VERSATURN Grinder Accessory Attachment. Unsuitable or
poor quality grinding wheels or brushes can separate throwing fragments outward at high
speeds possibly causing severe injuries.
3. NEVER ATTEMPT TO USE A GRINDING WHEEL OR WIRE BRUSH with an arbor hole
that is different in size from the shaft on the NOVA VERSATURN Grinder Accessory
Attachment.
4. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE ARBOR NUT. Excessive tightening can cause the wheel
to fracture and possibly break apart during use and throw pieces outward at high speeds
possibly causing severe injuries.
5. DO NOT USE A GRINDING WHEEL THAT VIBRATES. Visually inspect the grinding
wheel and dress as necessary or replace it immediately. If the vibration still exists, check
the bearings on the motor shaft and repair/replace them as soon as possible. Excessive
vibration can cause wheel separation and possibly severe injuries.
6. NEVER USE A CRACKED GRINDING WHEEL ON THE NOVA VERSATURN Grinder
Accessory Attachment. Replace cracked grinding wheels immediately.
7. ADJUST THE EYE SHIELD SO IT IS CLOSE TO THE GRINDING WHEEL OR WIRE
BRUSH. Adjust the eye shield as the grinding wheel or wire brush wears down. Flying
sparks are dangerous and cause fires and/or explosions if they come in contact with
flammable materials or liquids.
8. MAKE SURE THE EYE SHIELD IS IN PLACE, SECURE AND PROPERLY ADJUSTED
while using the NOVA VERSATURN Grinding Attachment.
9. TURN THE “ON/OFF” SWITCH ON THE LATHE TO THE “OFF” POSITION
AND REMOVE THE NOVA VERSATURN GRINDER ACCESSORY
ATTACHMENT FROM THE NOVA COMET II MIDI LATHE when the grinding/brushing
operations are finished. Thoroughly clean the area surrounding Grinding Wheel making it
ready for the next use.
