Adjust the distance between the end of the eye
shield and the grinding wheel regularly to
compensate for grinding wheel wear. The distance
should never be less than 2 mm. If the distance is
greater, it is no longer protected against the material
ejection.
If it is not possible to adjust the distance between the
grinding wheel and the end of the eye shield, replace
the grinding wheel.
Installing the tool rest
The workpiece tool rest (10) can be adjusted according
to the workpiece and the desired grinding angle.
1.
Place the tool rest in the fixing holes and tighten the
supplied screws, washers and nuts;
2.
Adjust the tool rest to the desired position and angle.
The maximum distance between the tool rest and the
grinding wheel must always be less than 2 mm;
3.
Tighten the tool rest adjustment knob (11);
Adjust regularly the distance between the tool
rest and the grinding wheel to compensate for
grinding wheel wear. The distance should never be less
than 2 mm. If the distance is greater, the workpiece can
be dragged by the rotation of the grinding wheel and
cause injury.
If it is not possible to adjust the distance between the
grinding wheel and tool rest, replace the grinding
wheel.;
Grinding wheel replacement
Do not use damaged grinding wheels. Ensure the
grinding wheel is not damaged in any way such as
cracks, deformations or fissures. After having installed
and checked the condition of the grinding wheel, make
sure you and others nearby keep their hands away from
the grinding wheel
and let the appliance run at the
maximum speed for a minute. Most damaged grinding
wheels are likely to break during the test period.
The grinding wheels must be able to run at least the
rotation speed of the bench grinder. If this does not
happen, the accessories may be damaged and cause
injury to the user and damage to the work area.
Replace the grinding wheel whenever the diameter of
the grinding wheel is less than 10 mm.
