1. Fix the Tool Rests, with the screws
and washers provided, in the
manner shown in Fig.1. The Tool
Rests are adjustable and should be
positioned 1/16" (1.6mm) from the
grinding wheels. Ensure that the
Tool Rest is firmly fixed and
horizontal.
2. Assemble the Spark Arrester
brackets onto the wheel guards,
using the screws and washers
provided, in the manner shown in
Fig.2.
NOTE: Before fully tightening the screws,
each bracket should be adjusted by
sliding it as close to the grinding wheels
as possible, without impairing the wheels
rotation. As the wheel wears down with
use, it will be necessary to re-adjust the
park Arrester brackets in order to
maintain a gap between the spark
arrester and the bracket. This gap should
never be allowed to become greater
than /8” .
3. Assemble the Eye Shields on to the
Spark Arrester brackets using the
nuts, bolts and washers supplied, in
the manner shown in Fig.3. The
angle for the Eye Shields can be
adjusted to suit the operator.
4. We recommend that your Clarke
Bench Grinder is secured to your
workbench before operation, using
the pre-drilled holes in the base. Do
not overtighten the mounting bolts
as this could damage the plastic
base.
