Tools required for assembly
Cross-point (Phillips) screwdriver
14mm (or adjustable) wrench
The JBGM series Grinder with Multitool attachment
requires only assembly of the left-hand eye shield
and tool rest. Additional tools may be needed for
fastening the grinder to a workbench or stand. For
your safety, do not plug the grinder into a power
source until all assembly and adjustments are
complete.
Be sure that the bench grinder
is unplugged and the power switch is in the OFF
position. Do not plug in the grinder to power
until it is inspected for shipping damage and
fully assembled. Failure to comply may cause
serious injury.
Do not operate this grinder
without all guards and shields in place and in
working order. Failure to comply may cause
serious injury.
Chipped or cracked wheels can
break up and cause serious damage to the
grinder and/or severe injury to the operator.
Regularly inspect wheels for damage.

Securing the grinder
To prevent the grinder from moving during
operation, it should be securely mounted to a work
surface or grinder stand. Fasteners for mounting are
not included with the grinder.
1. Align the mounting holes on the grinder with
predrilled holes in a bench or grinder stand.
Figure 4-1 shows hole centers for mounting.
2. Insert M8 (or 5/16”) bolts through the holes and
tighten, using washers and nuts.
An optional pedestal stand (not included) is
available from JET for your grinder. See
sect. 11.0.
