Grinding
Position the rest in front of the stone to be used
by loosening the adjustment handle, adjust the
rest to the required position and then retighten
the handle.
Switch on using the on/off button (8) and allow
the grinder to reach full speed before beginning to
work.
Present the item to the stone slowly, increasing
pressure gently and gradually. Never present the
item abruptly to the stone as this can cause the
item to kick back and damage the grinding stone.
Keep a firm grip with both hands on the item to
prevent it getting stuck between the rest and the
stone, which can damage the grinding stone.
Cool the item off using water at regular intervals
when working over extended periods.
When grinding tools, never allow the metal to
blue.
Never grind materials such as wood, plastic or soft
metals (e.g. lead) as they will block the pores of
the grinding stones, reducing their effectiveness.
Replacing grinding stones
Remove the spark screen and rest.
Loosen the nut (c) on the outer flange (b) using
an adjustable wrench and remove the outer flange.
Note! The right-hand spindle (seen from the front)
has right-hand thread whilst the left-hand spindle
has left-hand thread.
Remove the grinding stone (a).
Remove any filings from around the spindle and
flanges.
Fit the new stone, outer flange and lock nut.
Replace the rest and spark screen.
Start the grinder and let it run freely for a few
seconds to check that the stone is correctly fitted.
This procedure will also tighten the lock nut
automatically as the thread direction is opposite
to rotation.
Cleaning and maintenance
The grinder can be cleaned by wiping its exterior
parts with a damp cloth. Grinding dust and filings
can be removed with a brush or compressed air.
Do not use corrosive or abrasive cleaning agents.
