6. The eye shields can be adjusted by loosening the small
plastic headed screw so as to disengage the serration,
and adjust up or down. Tighten the plastic headed screws
after adjustment.
Fitting the tool rests
The tool rests (2) are required for each high speed grinding
wheel to assist in the grinding operation.
CAUTION.
Never use a bench grinder on which the tool
rest has not been fitted or where the tool rest has not been
correctly adjusted.
Note.
The tool rests are right and left handed. Follow
the diagrams to ensure the correct tool rest is fitted to the
correct side.
IMPORTANT.
Prior to fitting the tool rests, ensure the grinder
is turned off and the power plug is removed from the socket.
1. Hold the tool rest (2) in the correct position against the
outside surface of the wheel guard (8).
2. The tool rest is secured with
two bolts through the tool
rest into the inside face of
the wheel guard. Fit the flat
washers on to the securing
bolts.
3. Pass the securing bolt through
the hole in the tool rest and
thread into the corresponding
threaded hole in the guard.
Tighten finger tight.
Repeat for the second
securing bolt.
Note:
The tool rests are left
and right handed. Ensure when
mounted the tool rests are across
the front face of the wheel.
4. Slide the tool rest to within a maximum of 1.5 mm from
the wheel. Rotate the wheel one full revolution by hand to
ensure the wheel does not contact the tool rest.
5. Tighten the securing bolts firmly with a spanner to retain
the assembly.
6. Repeat the assembly operation for the second tool rest.
Bench mounting the grinder
The 909 bench grinder is supplied with 4 rubber mounts
which assist in reducing the transmission of vibration.
It is strongly recommended that the grinder be firmly
mounted to a bench or stand for safe operation.
The base of the grinder has two 10 mm slots on the centre
line of the base for mounting. Centre distance is 170 mm.
Mounting bolts are not supplied.
Where the grinder is to be mounted to a steel work bench,
it is advisable to place a piece of timber between the bench
and grinder then bolt through the grinder and timber into the
bench. This further reduces vibration.
IMPORTANT.
When directly mounting the grinder ensure
the surface under the grinder is flat and clean.
Note.
The four rubber mounts should be removed if
mounting bolts are used.
Turning on and off
1. To turn the grinder ON, press the end of the front rocker
switch marked I.
2. To turn the grinder OFF, press the end of the front rocker
switch marked O.
NOTE.
When turning the grinder off, the grinder will take
some minutes to completely stop. Do not leave the grinder
unattended during this period of run down time.
