ASSEMBLY
INSTALLING/REPLACING GRINDING WHEELS, TOOL RESTS, EYESHIELDS
Always use the proper grinding wheels for the bench grinder. Grinding wheels that do not properly fit will
cause loss of control.
Before installing or replacing the grinding wheels, make sure the power cord is unplugged. Failure to do
so could result in serious injury or electric shock.
Unpack product from package and review contents. Keep all packaging until product has been reviewed.
Double check that the bench grinder is off and unplugged from a power source before attempting to install or
remove the grinding wheel(s). Follow the illustrations to remove/install the Eye Shield and attach/remove it from
the Bench Grinder. Be certain to use the bolts and washers as indicated.
There is a left and right tool rest. When in actual use, the tool rests should be adjusted to within 1/8" (3.2mm) of the
grinding wheel or other accessory being used. Follow the illustrations to remove/install the tool rest. The Grinding
Wheel is accessed by removing the Eye Shield and Tool Rest and the Wheel Guard.
While the Grinding Wheel is removed, clear any debris from the inner flange. Then install the new Grinding Wheel,
the arbor screw, washer and outer flange.
Check that the Grinding Wheel rotates easily and fully, and is securely held in place after replacing the arbor screw
and outer flange.
