OPERATION

POSITIONING THE GUARD
See Figures 5 - 6, pages 14 - 15.
The guard on the grinder should be correctly positioned
depending on which side the handle is mounted. Never use
the grinder without the guard correctly in place.
WARNING:
Never place the guard so that it is in front of the grinder.
This could result in serious injury because sparks and
loose particles thrown from the grinding wheel would be
directed toward the operator. Always place the guard in
the correct location as shown.
To reposition the guard:
 Unplug the grinder.
 Using the wrench provided, loosen and remove flange nut,
grinding wheel, and disc flange from spindle if necessary.
 Unlock the guard clamp lever.
 Rotate the guard to its correct position as shown.
 Lock the guard clamp lever.
 Retighten clamp screw securely if needed.
GRINDING
See Figures 7 - 8, page 15.
Always carefully select and use grinding wheels that are
recommended for the material to be ground. Make sure the
minimum operating speed of any accessory wheel selected
is not less than 11,000 RPM. The grinding wheel provided
with the grinder is suitable for grinding welds, preparing
surfaces to be welded, grinding structural steel, and grind-
ing stainless steel.
DANGER:
Never use your grinder with the guard removed. It has
been designed for use only with the guard installed.
Attempting to use grinder with guard removed will result
in loose particles being thrown against the operator
resulting in serious personal injury.
To operate the grinder:
 Secure all work in a vise or clamp to a workbench.
 Hold the grinder in front and away from you with both
hands, keeping the grinding wheel clear of the workpiece.
 Start the grinder and let the motor and grinding wheel
build up to full speed.
 Gradually lower grinder until the grinding wheel contacts
the workpiece.
