OPERATION
NOTE:
Check that there is a 1.5 mm clearance between the tool rests and the
surface of the grinding wheel. Adjust as necessary.
NOTE:
Check the gap between the spark deflectors and the surface of the
grinding wheel. These should also be a maximum of 2 mm. Adjust as
necessary.
NOTE:
Check that the eyeshields have been secured in the correct position
and that the grinding wheel lock nuts are tight.
1. Stand to the side of the bench grinder and switch it on using the on/off
switch.
• Let the wheels reach full speed before use.
• The wheel rotates in the same direction as the arrow stamped in the
side of the wheel guard.
2. Hold the work piece firmly against the tool rest (if grinding). Hold very small
pieces with pliers or other suitable clamps.
3. Feed the work piece smoothly and evenly against the wheel.
4. Always keep the work piece moving across the face of the wheel. Grinding
against the same part of the wheel will cause uneven wear of the wheel
face.
• Grind only on the face of the grinding wheel and never the side of it.
• The wire wheel can be used to remove paint and rust. Always wear
a dust mask when removing paint or rust.
NOTE:
Prolonged grinding will cause most tools to become hot. Use care
when handling hot tools.
5. Switch the bench grinder off using the on/off switch when you have
finished.
USING THE BUILT IN LIGHT
The built in light will come on automatically whenever the bench grinder is
switched on.
The arm can bend to set the light in to a suitable position.
CAUTION: KEEP ALL BYSTANDERS A SAFE DISTANCE AWAY FROM THE
TOOL AND NOT IN DIRECT LINE, FRONT OR BACK OF THE GRINDER.
CAUTION: ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES
