•
Mount grinder to a solid horizontal surface (hardware not pro-
vided). If mounted to metal pedestal, align mounting holes
with corresponding holes in pedestal. Insert a

the bolt. Tighten only until space between grinder base and
pedestal is
1
/

” (base should be flush for 82102A). Using second
nut on each bolt, jam tighten against the first to prevent loos-
ening by vibration.
•
To mount grinder to wooden bench top, use
