ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING: Always disconnect the bench
grinder from the power source before perform-
ing any assembly or adjustment. Failure to do
so could result in accidental starting resulting in
possible serious personal injury.
SPARK DEFLECTOR
Using the head screws, washers, and lock washers,
attach the spark deflector to the top of the
wheel guard. Adjust the spark deflectors to
within 1/16" (1,6 mm) of the grinding wheel.
Tighten screws securely.
WARNINGS: Always spin the wheel by hand
before turning on the grinder to make sure the
spark deflector doesn't hit the grinding wheel.
• Always make sure your bench grinder is
securely mounted to a workbench or an ap-
proved work stand. Failure to do so could
result in an accident resulting impossible
serious personal injury.
MOUNTING SAFETY SHIELDS
Mount the left and right shield rods to the inside
of the wheel guards using the clamp brackets,
hex bolts, and washers.
Once shield rods are firmly in place, slide the
shield bracket onto the shield rod. Tighten the
carriage bolt leaving it loose enough to allow
the safety shield to be raised and lowered easily.
WORK REST
Using the hex bolt and washer, secure the work
rest against the inside of the wheel guard.
Before tightening the bolts, adjust the gap be-
tween the grinding wheel and the work rest to
a maximum of 1/16" (1,6 mm). Tighten securely.
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNINGS:
• Do not attempt to operate this tool until you
have read thoroughly and understand completely
all instructions, safety rules, etc, contained in this
manual. Failure to comply can result in accidents
involving fire, electric shock, or serious personal
injury. Save this operator's manual and review
frequently for continuing safe operation and
instructing others who may use this tool.
E N G L I S H •
• To prevent personal injury, never operate the
bench grinder unless the safety shields and spark
deflectors are properly installed and in place
• Never sharpen or grind anything made of
aluminum.
• Excessive pressure on a cold wheel may cause
the wheel to crack.
IMPORTANT
• Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses
with side shields during power tool operation or
when blowing dust. If operation is dusty, wear a
dust mask.
• When grinding, metal objects become heated
quickly. It is important to keep moving the object
back and forth across the grinding wheel and to
cool the object frequently.
To be efficient and work as designed, your tools
should be kept sharp. Dull tools can and will
cause accidents.
Bench Grinders are ideal for sharpening tools
such as chisels, planer blades, scissors, etc., and
for removing rust or corrosion.
Grinders remove material rapidly so pressure is
the key to efficient grinding. The proper way to
sharpen a tool and avoid overheating is: Keep
the object in constant motion, moving it at an
even pace. Never force a tool against the grinding
wheel. Keep the tool cool by using a pan of water.
The grinding wheel should rotate "into" the
object being sharpened.
NOTE: Excessive pressure may damage the tool,
cause themotor to overheat, and prematurely
wear down the grinding wheel.
The following recommendations will help
you sharpen specific tools:
TWIST DRILL BITS
Drill bits are best sharpened on a sharpening jig
(available at most hardware stores). Begin on
one side of the point at the existing angle, then
twist the bit while maintaining contact with the
grinding surface. Sharpen only the tip.
This technique requires considerable practice, so
take your time and make a few "dry runs" first
with the grinder off. Be sure to maintain the
original cutting edge angle as this is important
to the efficiency of your bits. One work rest has a
V-groove angled to fit most drill bits.
