3. WORK LIGHT.
4. SAFETY SHIELD AND SPARK DEFLECTOR. The
safety shields and spark deflectors are adjust-
able for operator convenience.
Operating the grinder without these features
attached could result in serious injury. Do not
grind with the safety shield raised; always wear
safety glasses for personal protection.
5. WORK REST. The work rests are indepen-
dently adjustable to compensate for wheel
wear. Before grinding, make certain the work
rests are adjusted properly. Generally the ob-
ject being ground is done slightly above center
of the grinding wheel. Adjust the distance be-
tween the wheel and the work rest to maintain
1/16” (1,6 mm) or less separation as the diam-
eter of the wheel decreases with use.
6. CONTROL SPEED KNOB.
MOTOR: This machine induction motor, has
the power and capacity to work with even the
toughest materials.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Always disconnect the bench
grinder from the power source before per-
forming any assembly or adjustment. Failure to
do so could result in accidental starting result-
ing in possible serious personal injury.
INSTALLING THE SPARK GUARDS

guards must be re-adjusted to maintain a 1/16
in. (1.6 mm) distance.
INSTALLING THE EYE SHIELDS
1. Attach the right eye shield (1) to the spark
guard (2) by using the locking nut knob (3),
lock washer (4) and the carriage bolt (5).
2. Repeat for left
