SPARK DEFLECTOR
Spark Deflector is attached to the Bench Grinder.
If necessary, adjust the spark deflectors to within
1/16 in. (1.6 mm) of the grinding wheel. Tighten
screws securely.
WARNING:
Always spin the wheel by hand before
turning on the grinder to make sure the spark
deflector doesn’t hit the grinding wheel.
SHIELD BRACKET ASSEMBLY
Note: The hardware used for assembling the safety
shields to the shield brackets has been preassembled
and prepackaged.
Attach safety shield support bar to grinder with a
thumb screw.
WARNING:
Excessive pressure on a cold wheel may cause the wheel to crack.
MOUNTING SAFETY SHIELDS
Take Shield Bracket and attach onto safety shield
support bar with thumb screws.
Refer to illustration on page 5 to determine left and right
safety shields.
WARNING:
To prevent personal injury, never operate the bench grinder unless the safety
shields and spark deflectors are properly installed and in place.
WORK REST
Before attempting to mount the work rest, remove the pre-attached thumb screw with
hex bolt and star washer. Place the work rest over the hex bolt before replacing the
thumb screw and star washer. Using the thumb screw and star washer, secure the work
rest against the inside of the wheel guard.
Before tightening the thumb screw, adjust the gap between the grinding wheel and the
work rest to a maximum of 1/16 in. (1.6 mm). Tighten securely.
