7. WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR POWER TOOL
1.Remember that grinding often produces sparks. Do not allow anyone to stand in the path of the
sparks. Do not grind near flammable materials.
2.If the grinding operation causes the motor speed to noticeably decrease, pull back the workpiece,
allow the motor to regain full speed and restart the grinding operation, but apply less force.
3.Wear the proper protective clothing. Particles flying off of a grinding wheel will be traveling very
fast prepare for this. Wear safety glasses/face shield, a dust mask, earplugs, a leather apron, and
heavy leather boots
4.Grasp the workpiece firmly and properly support it on the tool rest during grinding. Maintain even
pressure and control of the workpiece when grinding.
5. Do not grind on the side of the wheel. The wheels are not designed for side grinding.
knob.
3) Tighten the locking knob sufficiently to support the tool rest but still allowing the tool rest to slide
inwards and outwards.
4) Slide the tool rest to within a maximum of 1.5mm from the wheel. Rotate the wheel one full revolu-
tion by hand to ensure the wheel does not contact the tool rest. Firmly tighten the locking knob
firmly to retain the assembly (See Fig 2).
5) Repeat the assembly operation for the second tool rest.
5. Mounting grinder to workbench
1) The grinders are supplied with 4 rubber mounts which assist in reducing the transmission of
vibration.
If grinder is to be used in a permanent location, it is strongly recommended that the grinder faste-
ned securely to a firm supporting surface such as a stand or workbench using mounting holes.
2) When mounting grinder to a workbench, holes should be drilled through the supporting surface of
the workbench.
3) Place bench grinder on workbench aligning holes in base with holes drilled in workbench. Insert
bolts and tighten (See Fig 3).
Note:
Where the grinder is to be mounted to a steel work bench, it is advisable to place a piece of
timber between the bench and grinder then bolt through the grinder and timber into the bench. This
further assists to reduce vibration.
6. Using the On/Off switch
1) To turn the grinder on, press the upside or right hand side of the On/Off switch to the position
marked “I” (See Fig 4)
2) To turn the grinder off, press the underside or left hand side of the On/Off switch to the position
marked " O ".
7. Operating your grinder
Warning:
Prior to using the grinder, check that the eye shields, spark deflectors, and tool rests are
fitted and correctly adjusted and that you are wearing safety gear including eye, hearing and breathing
protection.
1) Turn the wheel by hand to make sure it does not touch the guard, eye shields, spark deflectors or
tool rests and runs freely.
2) Stand to one side, turn the switch on and allow the motor to reach full speed.
3) Support the workpiece on the tool rest and gradually feed the workpiece onto the wheel (See Fig 5).
Use pliers to hold small workpieces.
4) If the grinding operation causes the motor speed to noticeably decrease, pull back the workpiece,
allow the motor to regain full speed and restart the grinding operation, but apply less force.
Warning:
To reduce the risk of injury, only use the front face of the grinding wheel, not the sides.
Note:
that the workpiece can get very warm. It may be necessary to cool a workpiece by dipping
it in a coolant or in water. Do not apply coolant or water to the grinding wheel.
8. How to true and dress the wheels
Dressing a wheel cleans and levels the front surface to increase efficiency of operation and prevent
vibration.
1) Dressing a wheel involves the use of a wheel dresser which is not supplied with the grinder.
Follow the manufacturers instructions of the wheel dresser.
2) Adjust the tool rest to allow the front part of the wheel dresser to fit between the tool rest and wheel.
3) Start the motor and move the dresser across the front of the wheel a sufficient number of times
until the surface is level. It is not necessary to apply excessive force in an attempt to dress the
wheel in one pass of the wheel dresser.
4) Adjust the tool rest so that it is no more than 1.5mm from the wheel (See Fig 6).
5) Adjust the spark deflector to ensure the gap between the deflector and wheel is no more than
