accessories. The use of improper accessories may
cause risk of injury to persons.
• NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury could
occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is
unintentionally contacted.
• CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of
the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that it will
operate properly and perform its intended
function–check for alignment of moving parts,
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting,
and any other conditions that may affect its operation.
A guard or other part that is damaged should be
properly repaired or replaced.
• NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED.
TURN POWER OFF. Don't leave tool until it comes to
a complete stop.
Additional SAFETY RULES for bench grinders
• Always use proper guard with grinding wheel. A
guard protects operator from broken wheel
fragments.
• Accessories must be rated for at least the speed
recommended on the tool warning label. Wheels
and other accessories running over the rated speed
can fly apart and cause injury.
• Before using, inspect recommended accessory for
cracks or flaws. If such a crack or flaw is evident,
discard the accessory. DO NOT USE A GRINDING
WHEEL THAT IS CRACKED OR FLAWED IN ANY WAY.
• When starting the tool, let it run for one minute.
Never start the tool with a person in line with the
wheel. This includes the operator.
• Do not grind on the sides of grinding wheels unless
they are specifically designed for that purpose.
• Do not overtighten wheel clamp nut. This may crack
the grinding wheel.
• Clean the cavity around the grinding wheel periodically.
WARNING: Some dust created by power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contains chemicals

known to cause cancer, birth defects or other repro-
ductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
lumber. (CCA)
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on
how often you do this type of work. To reduce your
exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated
area, and work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specially designed to
filter out microscopic particles.

per minute
• Wear protective glasses;
• Do not use damaged or unshaped wheels;
• The adjustment of the spark arrestor shall be made
frequently, so as to compensate the wear of the wheel,
keeping the distance between the guard and the wheel as
small as possible, but in any case not greater than 2mm;
• The adjustment of the work rest shall be done
gradually so as to compensate the wear of the
wheel, keeping the distance between the work rest
and the wheel as small as possible, but in any case
not greater than 2mm;

Motor
Be sure your power supply agrees with the nameplate
marking. A power decrease of more than 10% will
cause loss of power and overheating.
Bench Mounting
1. The grinder should be unplugged.
2. Position grinder on workbench. Check for the
availability of power for the grinder. Mark location of
holes for drilling.
3. Drill appropriate sized holes.
4. Insert 1/4" (6mm) Hex head bolts through washers
and the holes. You may want to use washers on the
underside of the bench as well.
5. Tighten the nuts. Do not overtighten. Allow the rubber
feet to absorb the vibration when the grinder is running.
Installing Eye Shields (Fig.1)
TURN OFF TOOL AND DISCONNECT FROM
POWER SUPPLY
Adjust the eye shields so they are between the wheels
and your eyes.
NOTE: EYE SHIELDS ARE NOT DESIGNED TO
REPLACE SAFETY GLASSES.
Installing Tool Rests
TURN OFF POWER AND DISCONNECT FROM
POWER SUPPLY.
Use the bolts, washers, spacers and lock nuts from the
plastic bag to secure the brackets and tool rests in place.
CAUTION: Use the washers and screws
supplied. Longer screws may interfere with
the movement of the grinding wheel.
Operation
NEVER USE A BENCH GRINDER IF IT IS NOT FIRMLY
FASTENED TO A WORK BENCH OR RIGID FRAME.
Before turning the grinder on, put on safety glasses.
Turn on the grinder and allow it to reach full speed
-1
(3450 rpm or 57.55
). Hold the workpiece firmly and
s
against the tool rest. Hold very small pieces with pliers
or other suitable clamps. Feed the work smoothly and
evenly into the grinding wheel. Move the work slowly
and avoid jamming the work against the wheel. As the
wheel tends to slow down you should occasionally
release the pressure to let the wheel return to full speed.
Grind only on the face of the grinding wheel and never
on the side. (Some wheels are designed for side
grinding and will say so on their instruction sheets).
CAUTION: Prolonged grinding will cause most
materials to become hot. Handle them with pliers.
Switch
The switch is located on the front of the grinder, on the
base. To turn the tool on depress the side of the
rocker switch on the right side, marked "on". To turn off
the grinder, depress the left side of the rocker switch,
marked "off".
Maintenance
Cleaning
Blowing dust and grit out of the wheel guards using
compressed air is a necessary regular maintenance
procedure. Dust and grit containing metal particles
often accumulate on interior surfaces and could create
an electrical shock hazard if not frequently cleaned out.
ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES.
CAUTION: Never use solvents or other harsh
chemicals for cleaning the non-metallic parts
of the tool. Use clean, dry rag only.
Accessories
Grinding wheels must fit within the confines of the
guard and must be rated higher than the recommended
speed as marked on the nameplate (3450rpm).
CAUTION: Strands of wire brushes may
break and fly off while in use. Users and oth-
ers in the area should wear adequate eye,
face and body protection. Use only wire
brushes that are rated at or greater than the
RPM shown on the tool's nameplate. Do not
use the spacer with grinding wheels.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, always use
proper guards when grinding and wear eye protection.
