The Tool Rest provides a surface which can be
used to support the workpiece during grinding.
Certain types of grinding may require jigs or
accessories to assure the proper angle of the
piece against the wheel.
The Tool Rest assembles to the inboard side of
the Wheel Guard. Use two (2) hex bolts and lock-
washers inserted through the rest support and
thread into the tapped holes. Repeat this installa-
tion for the opposite side wheel. The Tool Rest
can be adjusted in and out by loosening these
bolts. Always retighten before beginning grinding
operations.

The Eye Shield should be positioned between the
grinding wheel and the operator’s face during
grinding. This lessens the possibility for sparks or
metal bits to go flying directly at the operator.
The Eye Shield has a clear plastic panel which is
attached to a support bracket. Thread the long
Phillips
®
head screw through the bracket, then
through the shield, and then through the other
side of the bracket. Use a nut and lockwasher,
but leave it loose enough so the angle of the Eye
Shield can be adjusted.
Attach the support bracket to the top end of the
wheel rim guard with a Phillips
®
head screw, flat
washer and lockwasher into the tapped hole.
Note that there is a slot in the support bracket
which allow adjusting the Eye Shield up and
down.
Repeat the Eye Shield installation for the oppo-
site side wheel.
