IMPORTANT: KEEP SPARK GUARDS AND EYE
SHIELDS IN PLACE AT ALL TIMES.
Figures 23, 24, and 25, illustrate several typical
operations that can be accomplished using the grinder.
Each tool rest should be positioned a little below the
center of the grinding wheel and adjusted so the edge of
the tool rest is a distance of 1/8” or less from the wheel.
This will provide maximum support to the piece that is
being ground. This is the most practical and safest
position for general work.
As the grinding wheel wears down to a smaller diameter,
readjust the tool rest closer to the grinding wheel. Always
maintain a distance of 1/8" or less between the grinding
wheel and the edge of the tool rest. Free hand grinding
without the use of the tool rest should always be done on
the lower quarter of the grinding wheel. Read and follow
the
“SAFETY RULES”
in the front of this manual and
follow them while operating this tool.

MACHINE USE
DUST PORT
There is one dust port located on the rear of each
grinding wheel cover; this dust port enables the user to
attach a dust collection system to the grinder. Fig. 22.
WHEN USING A DUST COLLECTION
SYSTEM WITH THIS METAL GRINDING
TOOL, BE SURE THE DUST COLLECTOR IS
DESIGNED TO ACCEPT HOT METAL SHAVINGS.
