SAFETY RULES (CONTINUED)
KNOW HOW TO USE TOOL
•
Use right tool for job. Do not force tool or attachment to do a
job for which it was not designed.
•
Disconnect tool from power when changing accessories such as
grinding wheels, buffing wheels and the like.
•
Avoid accidental start-up. Make sure that the switch is in the off
position before plugging in.
•
Do not force tool. It will work most efficiently at the rate for
which it was designed.
•
Keep hands away from moving parts and grinding surfaces.
•
Never leave a tool running unattended. Turn the power off and
do not leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
•
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance.
•
Never stand on tool. Serious injury could occur if tool is tipped
over.
•
Know your tool. Learn the tool’s operation, application and
specific limitations.
•
Use recommended accessories. Understand and obey all safety
instructions supplied with accessories. The use of improper
accessories may cause risk of injury to persons.
•
Do not over tighten wheel nut. Replace cracked wheel
immediately. Use only flanges supplied with the grinder.
•
Adjust distance between wheel and tool rest to maintain 1/16”
or less gap.
•
Handle the workpiece correctly. Whenever possible, use tool
rest to support workpiece during grinding operation. Turn tool
off if it jams.
•
Secure work. Use clamps or a vise to hold work when practical.
It's safer than using your hand and it frees both hands to oper-
ate tool.
•
Always use guards and eyeshields.
•
Clean grinding dust from beneath tool frequently.
•
Direction of feed. Feed work into a blade or cutter against the
direction of rotation of the blade or cutter only.

necessary. Secure all knobs.
•
Mount right tool rest in a similar manner.
EYESHIELD ASSEMBLY
Refer to figure 1
1. Attach spark guard (L) to left wheel guard (O) using knob (M),
spring washer (N) and flat washer (B).

DUST COLLECTION HOSE
•
A dust collector hose has been provided with grinder. Slide
hoses onto sides of T-connector and flanges. Mount the hose by
sliding the flanges at each end over the exhaust ports on the
left and right wheel guards. Attach 2½” shop vacuum hose to
collector hose. Be sure hose is mounted securely.
DANGER:
Be sure to empty shop vacuum of all flammable
material (flammable liquids and vapors, paper, wood, plastic, etc.)
before connecting vacuum to grinder. Hot sparks from grinder may
ignite flammable materials in shop vacuum.
INSTALLATION
MOUNT GRINDER
•
Mount grinder to a solid horizontal surface (hardware not pro-
vided). If mounted to metal pedestal, align mounting holes with
corresponding holes in pedestal. Insert a 1/4-20 x 1¼” hex head
bolt with flat washer through base of grinder. From bottom of
pedestal, place a 1/4” flat washer and 1/4”-20 hex nut onto the
bolt. Tighten only until space between grinder base and
pedestal is 1/8” (base should be flush for 9682075A). Using sec-
ond nut on each bolt, jam tighten against the first to prevent
loosening by vibration.
