BEFORE USE

MOUNTING THE GRINDER ON A WORKBENCH

NOTE:

We highly recommend that you bolt this bench grinder securely to a 

workbench to gain maximum stability for your machine.

1. Using the base of the bench 

grinder as a template, mark the 

bench through the holes in the 

casting. 

2. Bolt the bench grinder to the 

bench with bolts, washers and nuts 

(not supplied).

3. To reduce vibration, mount the 

bench grinder on a vibration 

absorbing mat.

INSTALLING THE TOOL RESTS

1. Fix the tool rests to the bench 

grinder with the screw and hand 

knob as shown.
• The tool rests are adjustable 

and should be positioned 1.5 

mm from the grinding wheels.

• Ensure that the tool rest is firmly 

fixed and horizontal.

• One of the tool rest has a 

angled grove to allow you to sharpen the ends of drill bits.

INSTALLING THE SPARK DEFLECTORS

Fit both the spark deflectors to the 

wheel guards using the screws 

provided.

• Adjust the spark deflector 

frequently to compensate for 

wear of the wheel, keep the 

distance between the spark 

deflector and wheel as small as 

possible and never more than 

2mm.
