INSTALLING TOOL RESTS
Remove the tool rests from the
package and install them to the
wheel guards as shown in Figure 1.
Use the bolts and washers to secure
them in place.
Note:
There is a left and right tool
rest. Refer to Figure 1 to ensure that
you install them correctly.
When in actual use, the tool rests
should be adjusted to within 1/16”
of the grinding wheel.
INSTALLING THE SPARK GUARDS
Select the two spark guards and the
two smaller bolts and washers. Install
the spark guards to the wheel guards
of your grinder as shown in Figure 2.
Adjust them to within 1/16” of the
grinding wheel.
Note:
There is a left and right spark
guard. Refer to Figure 2 to ensure
that you install them correctly.
INSTALLING THE EYE SHIELDS
Note:
There is a left and right eye shield mounting rod. Examine Figure 3
to ensure that you install them correctly. The one pictured in Figure 3 is for
the right wheel guard as you face the front of the tool. Assemble one
mounting rod, one bracket, one bolt as shown and install it to the wheel
guard of the grinder. Position it with the arm high, as shown in Figure 4,
and tighten the bolt securely.
Note:
The eye shields are identical and will fit properly on either side of the
grinder. However it may be necessary to loosen the center hex nut in order
to slip the shield over the mounting rod.
After you have installed each eye shield mounting rod to the grinder, attach
the eye shields to the rods, as shown
in Figure 5. Install them in such a
way that the three hex nuts on each
eye shield are on the back side,
away from the operator when the
tool is in use.
Tighten the center hex nut so that
the shield can be moved but will be
tight enough to stay in place.
ALWAYS position the eye shields
between your eyes and the grinding
wheel.
