Remove plate flange and carefully remove the stone. 
Clean the interior stone guard, inspect the new stone for 
cracks and damage to either the front face or the edges 
before fitting. Carefully slide the stone on the shaft, 
replace the plate flange and the nut then tighten against 
the rotation of the stone.  DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

Tighten the three screws

Rotate the guard cover

CONNECT THE GRINDER 
TO THE MAINS SUPPLY.

CONNECT THE GRINDER 
TO THE MAINS SUPPLY.

Reconnect the grinder to the mains supply, give the grinder 
a ‘short burst’, by switching it on and off quickly. Check the 
grinder is not subject to any undue vibration. If the grinder 
does vibrate, switch off immediately and disconnect from 
the main supply.  Remove the guard cover and check stone 
and plate flange are fitted correctly.  Check again, if the 
grinder is still vibrating the stone/s may need dressing. 
Dress the new stone lightly to ensure a ‘good face’ and 
good concentricity.

Switch on the grinder, wait until it reaches full speed and 
leave the machine running for at least one minute before 
carrying out any work. Apply a work piece and check that 
the spark guard is correctly positioned and that the tool 
rest is securely fixed. Switch off and wait until the grinder 
comes to a complete stop.
