OPERATIONS

General

Your bench grinder will allow you to perform many types of grinding and buffing operations. However, the follow- ing section is not a complete guide for every possible use.

We strongly recommend that you read books, trade mag- azines, or seek formal training before attempting any grinding or buffing operations in which you are not con- fident with. Above all, your safety should come first. This recommended research will pay off with increased safety, improved work results, and the knowledge to be a better metalworker.

Grinding Operations

NEVER grind non ferrous metals like aluminum, brass, copper, bronze, and others, or the grinding wheel will load up, overheat, and can explode dur- ing operation.

Once the assembly and the test run have been completed, your Heavy-Duty Bench Grinder is ready for use.

When mounting a new wheel, or when there is any concern about wheel integrity, stand away from the line of rotation of the wheel and then turn the grinder ON. Allow the grinder operate for one minute. If there is a problem it will generally occur when the grinder is first started. If the grinding wheel is OK, rest the workpiece on the tool rest and ease the workpiece into the grinding wheel. Begin grinding without holding the workpiece in one spot or it will cause uneven wear on the stone face.

Operation of this equipment has the potential to propel debris into the air which can cause eye injury. Always wear safety glasses or goggles when operating a grinder. Everyday glasses or reading glasses are not safety glass- es. Be certain the safety glasses you wear meet the appropriate standards of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).

DO NOT make adjustments while the grinder is running. Ensure that the switch is OFF, power is disconnected and moving parts have stopped before making adjustments. Failure to comply could result in serious injury or electrical shock hazard.
