KNOW YOUR BENCH GRINDER
See Figure. 3
Before attempting to use your new tool, familiarise yourself
with all operating features and safety requirements.
Carefully read this operator's manual before using your
grinder.
POWER SWITCH
Your EBG2515 / EBG3720 Bench Grinder features
an easy access On/Off switch for convenience and safety.
MOTOR
Powered by a precision-built electric induction motor, your
bench grinder has sufficient power to handle tough
grinding jobs.
GRINDING WHEEL
Equipped with coarse and fine grinding wheels to suit most
applications.
NOTE:
New wheels sometimes require dressing to true
up the face of the wheel.
SAFETY EYE SHIELD AND SPARK DEFLECTOR
The safety shields and spark deflectors are adjustable
for operator convenience. Operating the grinder without
these features attached could result in serious injury.
Do not
grind with the safety shield raised ; always wear
safety glasses for personal protection.
WORK REST
The work rests are independently adjustable to compensate for
wheel wear. Before grinding, make certain the work rests
are adjusted properly. Generally the object being ground
is done slightly above centre of the grinding wheel.
Adjust the distance between the wheel and the work rest to
maintain 1.6mm. or less separation as the diameter of the
wheel decreases with use.
WHEEL DRESSING TOOL
A buildup of metals, dirt, rust, etc. will become embedded
in the grinding wheel as it wears. Using the Wheel Dressing
Tool to clean the wheel of these ground-in particles will help
improve the grinder's performance.
AUTO-ON WORKLIGHT
Your EBG2515/EBG3720 Bench Grinder comes equipped
with a permanently mounted worklight that automatically
lights the work area for safer, more accurate grinding and
sharpening.
COOLANT TRAY
When grinding, metal objects become heated quickly. It
is important to keep moving the object back and forth across
the grinding wheel and to cool the object frequently using the
grinder's Cooltant Tray.
