Abrasive wheels should be discarded when:
1. The diameter approaches that of the driving flanges.
2. The tool rest can no longer be correctly adjusted to the wheel diameter.
3. The wheel no longer grinds efficiently because of reduced peripheral speed.
On/Off Switch
Turn the wet & dry bench grinder on by pushing the On/Off switch (11) to the “I” (On)
setting. Once depressed it will remain on. Turn the wet & dry bench grinder off by
pushing the On/Off switch (11) to the “O” (Off) setting.
Dry Bench Grinder Operation
Switch the wet & dry bench grinder on and stand to one side while the wet & dry
bench grinder reaches maximum speed.
WARNING!
Do not grind with the eye shield raised: always wear safety
glasses when operating the wet & dry bench grinder.
Guide the work against the tool rest and into the grinding wheel slowly and smoothly
without bumping.
Apply gradual pressure to allow the wheel to warm up evenly. Use only the pressure
required to complete the job.
By moving the work back and forth across the wheel you will prevent grooves.
