GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR 230V MACHINES
4
The following will enable you to observe good working
practices, keep yourself and fellow workers safe and
maintain your tools and equipment in good working order.
Mains Powered Tools
•Tools are supplied with an attached 13 Amp UK 3 pin
plug, fitted with 5 amp fuse.
•Inspect the cable and plug to ensure that neither are
damaged. Repair if necessary by a suitably
qualified person.
•Do not use when or where it is liable to get wet.
Workplace
•Do not use 230V a.c. powered tools anywhere
within a site area that is flooded.
•Keep machine clean.
•Leave machine unplugged until work is about to
commence.
•Always disconnect by pulling on the plug body
and not the cable.
•Carry out a final check e.g. check the cutting tool
is securely tightened in the machine and the
correct speed and function set.
•Ensure you are comfortable before you start work,
balanced,not reaching etc.
•Wear appropriate safety clothing, goggles, gloves,
masks etc.Wear ear defenders at all times.
•If you have long hair wear a hair net or helmet to prevent
it being caught up in the rotating parts of the machine.
•Consideration should be given to the removal of rings and
wristwatches.
•Consideration should also be given to non-slip
footwear etc.
•If another person is to use the machine, ensure they are
suitably qualified to use it.
•Do not use the machine if you are tired or distracted.
•Do not use this machine within the designated safety
areas of flammable liquid stores or in areas where there
may be volatile gases.
•Check cutters are correct type and size,are
undamaged and are kept clean and sharp, this will
maintain their operating performance and lessen the
loading on the machine.
•OBSERVE…. make sure you know what is
happening around you and USE YOUR COMMON SENSE.
WARNING!! KEEP TOOLS AND
EQUIPMENT OUT OF REACH OF
YOUNG CHILDREN
KEEP WORK AREA AS
UNCLUTTERED AS IS PRACTICAL.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES
SHOULD CHILDREN BE ALLOWED
IN WORK AREAS.
SPECIFIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR GRINDING MACHINES
1. Do not operate your machine until it is completely
assembled and installed according to the instructions.
2. If you are not familiar with the operation of grinding
machines obtain advice from your supervisor or instructor
or another qualified person.
3. Only use grinding wheels or attachments rated higher
than 3600 rpm with a 5/8”(16mm) arbor on this machine.
4. Never use a chipped or cracked wheel. Always inspect
each wheel before mounting it on the grinder. If during
inspection you discover a damaged grinding wheel, replace
it immediately.
5. Do not over tighten wheel nuts.
6. Always maintain a distance of 2mm or less between the
wheel and the tool rest. Adjust the tool rests as the wheels
decrease in size.
7. Ensure the tool rests are tightened so they cannot move
while in use.
8. Never grind on a cold wheel.The grinder should always
be run for at least one minute before applying work to it.
9. Never grind on the side of the wheel. Always grind on
the face of the wheel only.
10. Never apply coolant directly to a grinding wheel, it may
cause the bonding to fail. If the work piece becomes hot,
dip it into a water pot to cool it down.

SPECIFIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR GRINDING MACHINES
5
11. Hot sparks are a hazard! Never carry out grinding
operations near flammable gas or liquid.
12. Always make sure the spark guards and eye shields
are in place,that they are properly adjusted and secured.
13. Keep the spark guards close to the wheels and
re-adjust them as the wheels wear.
14. Ensure the soft washer and the flanges furnished with
the grinder are used to mount any attachments (grinding
wheels, wire brushes, buffing wheels, etc) onto the shaft.
15. Always stand to one side of the grinder when starting
the machine.
16. Avoid awkward hand positions where a sudden slip
could cause the hands to come into contact with a grinding
wheel, wire brush etc.
17. If the wheel requires dressing, dress only the front of
the wheel, do not dress the sides.
18. Do not use any attachments that causes the machine
to vibrate. If,after changing grinding wheels or adding
attachments, the machine does vibrate, remove the
recently replaced item and change again.
19. Grinding creates heat. Do not touch the work face
of the work piece until you are sure it has cooled down
sufficiently.

SETTING UP THE GRINDER
Place the grinder on a flat level surface. There are two
machined slots to either side of the grinder housing to
bolt the machine onto a work bench if required, see fig 01.
Adjust the two tool rests leaving a gap of approximately
1.5mm clearance between the grinding stone and the tool
rest, see fig 02
Fig 01
NOTE: ADJUST THE TOOL RESTS
AS THE GRINDING STONE WEARS
DOWN.

SETTING UP THE GRINDER
9
CONNECT THE GRINDER TO THE
MAINS SUPPLY.
DISCONNECT THE GRINDER
FROM THE MAINS SUPPLY.
ALWAYS WEAR EAR DEFENDERS
AND SAFETY GOGGLES.
Carry out final checks e.g. check the gap between the tool
rest and the stone is correct, check the stone is not badly
deformed (rounded edges,grooved face,etc; unless you
have specifically shaped the stone to these profiles), check
the eye shield is correctly positioned.Have a cooling pot to
hand if you need it. Start the machine, wait until it reaches
full speed. Check it runs smoothly, no knocking or scraping
noises for example.If all ok, switch off the grinder and wait
until it comes to a complete stop.Disconnect the machine
from the mains supply.
CHANGING THE GRINDING STONE
Step 1-2
Using a spanner remove the three nuts and washers from
the stone guard cover and place to one side.
Step 3
Remove side cover and place safely to one side.
Step 4
Grasp the stone using a cloth, use a 24mm spanner to
loosen the nut, remember undo the nut in the direction of
the stone’s rotation as indicated by the arrow on the guard
cover.

CHANGING THE GRINDING STONE
10
Step 5-6
Remove plate flange and carefully remove the stone.
Clean the interior stone guard, inspect the new stone for
cracks and damage to either the front face or the edges
before fitting. Carefully slide the stone on the shaft, replace
the plate flange,the nut and tighten against the rotation
of the stone. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
Step 8-9-10
Step 7
CONNECT THE GRINDER
TO THE MAINS SUPPLY.
Reconnect the grinder to the mains supply, give the grinder
a ‘short burst’, by switching it on and off quickly. Check the
grinder is not subject to any undue vibration. If the grinder
does vibrate, switch off immediately and disconnect from
the mains supply. Remove the guard cover and check
stone and plate flange is fitted correctly. Check again, if
the grinder is still vibrating the stone/s may need dressing.
Dress the new stone lightly to ensure a‘good face’and
good concentricity.

CONNECT THE GRINDER
TO THE MAINS SUPPLY.
CONNECT THE GRINDER
TO THE MAINS SUPPLY.
Switch on the grinder, wait until it reaches full speed and
leave the machine running for at least one minute before
carrying out any work. Apply a work piece and check that
the spark guard is correctly positioned and that the tool
rest is securely fixed. Switch off and wait until the grinder
comes to a complete stop.
DISCONNECT THE GRINDER
FROM THE MAINS SUPPLY.
After a period of time uneven wear on the stones including,
crests dips or rounded edges will appear. They will need to
be dressed out using a suitable wheel dressing stick. See
our website and in our catalogue for details, see fig 10-11.
Switch the grinder on and allow it to run for at least one
minute. Rest the dressing tool on the tool rest and advance
it to the stone until it touches the maximum diameter;

Diamond Dressing Block useful for dressing across the
width of the grinding wheels or to produce flatter surfaces
than single point dressers.

Fig 12
gently move the dresser back and forth across the face of
the stone until all irregularities have been removed and
the edges of the stone are nice and sharp, see fig 12.
Step 13-14
Changing the Light Bulb
The flexible light has a 12V 0.36W screw threaded LED bulb.
Unscrew the blown bulb and replace.
