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.
The test run ensures that the grinder and wheels did not get damaged during shipping.
To test run the grinder:
1.Review and understand the grinder safety information on Page 6.
2.Plug the grinder into the power source.
3.Stand away from the line of rotation of the wheel, turn the grinder ON, and allow it to run for one minute.
