Wheel Replacement; General Maintenance - Terratek TBG150 Manual Del Usuario

Always wear eye protection when using this or any other
grinder.
Turn on the grinder and wait until it reaches full speed before you start grinding. Use
the tool rest to keep the work piece steady. Keep a steady even pressure on the work
piece and keep moving it from side to side at even pace for smooth grinding and to avoid
uneven wheel wear. Do not push too hard because this may overheat the motor and
prematurely wear down the wheels, work slowly.
Note the original grind angle on the item you are sharpening/grinding and try to keep
the same angle. Make sure the grinding wheel always rotates down onto the object
ou are grinding to avoid injury. Obtain a tray with water and place it next to the grinder
to dip your work to keep from overheating or burning as this will weaken the metal.
