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.
