OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Danger / Caution:
Always ensure that the wheel retaining nut is fully tight-
ened and the wheel is secure before each operation.
Correct working practice:
Maintain a steady, moderate pressure on the work piece and keep it moving at an
even pace for smooth grinding.
Pressing too hard overheats the motor and prematurely wears down the grinding
wheels. The grinding wheel should rotate into the object, being sharpened. Keep a
tray filled with water and dip your work into it regularly to prevent overheating.
Do not
use the side of the grinding wheel; This puts dangerous stress on the wheel.
When the wheel becomes loaded or ‘dull’, use an approved grinding wheel dresser
and dress the wheel face.
