ASSEMBLY

Fig. 1 (Attach eye shield bracket to the upper grinding wheel housing using hardware provided. Now attach eye shield to
bracket.) Caution! Eye shields do provide total protection for the eyes; for maximum safety,always wear safety goggles
when using this bench grinder.
Tool rests help hold your work close to the grinding wheel and give the operator much more control when the work comes
into contact with the wheel.
Fig. 2 (Attach the simple tool rest as shown to the lower portion of the wheel housing.) The tool rest should be adjusted
so that it is no more than 1/8” from the wheel. This is so the work doesnʼt slip down between the wheel and the housing.
Lights are designed to shine directly over the eye shield to light up the work area. The lights are fastened to flexible arms
so they can be adjusted to any position.
The Base is mounted to the grinder and is designed to sit on a work bench or suitable work surface. It can be mounted to
a floor base(not included) or a table. There are screw holes in the base for this purpose.
To change or replace the wheels, follow these simple steps. Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet.
The eye shield is fastened to the grinder by a simple knurled thumb screw. Remove the eye shield by removing the screw.
Now the bracket for the eye shield can be removed. Remove the tool rests in the same manner by removing the knurled
thumb screw. Next remove the cover on the end of the grinder, this completely exposes the grinding wheels. Now the
grinding wheel can be removed with a simple adjustable wrench.

Your new grinder comes with several accessories.
Please use only the accessories included when operating your grinder.
The box includes two tool rests, two eye shields with brackets, two work lights, and two grinding wheels; one course grit,
one medium grit. They are 6” X 5/8” grinding wheels. The 1 ¼” arbor hole is bushed down to 1/2”, 5/8”or 3/4”
depending on your grinder.
3) The appropriate adjustments of tool rests will provide the correct working angle for efficient grinding. As the diameter of
the grinding wheel is subject to wear, it will be necessary to re-adjust the tool rests positions to maintain the correct gap
of less than 1.6mm (1/6”) with the edge of the grinding wheel.
