H7758/H7759 8" & 10" Bench Grinders
Mounting
Mount the grinder on a workbench or stand (see
Page 16) that is sturdy enough to hold the weight
of the machine and any downward pressure that
may be applied during operation.
The workbench should have a level surface and
be heavy, or attached to the floor, so it will not
move during operation.
The grinder can be mounted by drilling a holes in
your workbench and securing the grinder with hex
bolts, washers, and hex nuts. Or, you can secure
it directly into the workbench with lag screws and
flat washers. (Mounting hardware is not provided
due to the many possible set ups and workbench
thicknesses.)
When locating your grinder, remember:
• You'll need room for potentially large
workpieces.
• Grinding spreads dust in the immediate vicin
-
ity of the grinder.
• Grinding creates flying sparks that MUST be
out of reach of any flammables.
• You'll need a lot of light around the grinding
wheel.
