BASIC GRINDER OPERATIONS
WARNING! Never start the tool with the operator or bystander
in line with the grinding wheel. A damaged grinding wheel
could shatter and the debris may cause an injury.
WARNING!
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with
side shields during operation of any power tool. If the
operation is dusty, wear the appropriate protective mask.
The bench grinder is equipped with one coarse grinding wheel
(36 grit) and one medium grinding wheel (60 grit). It is the
ideal tool for sharpening tools such as wood chisels, cold
chisels, planer blades, scissors, lawn mower blades, etc.
Because grinders can remove material rapidly, a freshly dressed
wheel and the amount of workpiece pressure applied to the
wheel are keys to efficient grinding. Use the following basic
guidelines to aid in working metals and avoid overheating.
1. Never force the workpiece against the grinding wheel.
Pressing too hard overheats the motor and prematurely
wears down the grinding wheel.
2. Lay the workpiece against the tool rest and ease it into the
grinding wheel. Do not push the point or edge into the
wheel as it may catch and the workpiece may be pulled for
the user’s grasp.
3. Always keep the workpiece constantly moving against the
grinding wheel with light pressure and even motion.
4. Keep the workpiece cool by dipping it in a container of water.
5. Always use the face of the grinding wheel with the wheel
moving downward, into the object being worked.
6. Deburring the edge is done best by using the grinder to
pull burrs from the edge across the bevel angle.
7. Do not grind using the sides of a grinding wheel.
