In order to properly use this machine it is necessary to purchase some type of holding fixture. The workpiece must be firmly secured before beginning any type of grinding operations. Refer to the current Grizzly cata- log for options. The most versatile holding device is a magnetic chuck. See Figure 10. With the throw of a lever anything magnetic can be firmly attached to the table without having jaws or fingers which might inter- fere with the grinding wheel.
Some types of grinding will also be aided by the addi- tion of some type of lubricant or coolant. These can be introduced into the process by means of a spray device operated by hand or by a pump of some sort. The Grizzly catalog has several different options for adding coolant capability to your grinder.
Once the assembly is complete and the adjust- ments are done to your satisfaction, you are ready to test the machine.
Turn on the power supply at the main panel. Press the START button. Make sure that your fin- ger is poised on the STOP button, just in case there is a problem. The surface grinder should run smoothly, with little or no vibration or rubbing noises. Strange or unnatural noises should be investigated and corrected before operating the machine further.
Operation of this equipment has the potential to propel debris into the air which can cause eye injury. Always wear safety glasses or gog- gles when operating equipment. Everyday glasses or reading glasses only have impact resistant lenses, they are not safety glasses. Be certain the safety glasses you wear meet the appropriate standards of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).

NOTICE
Before starting any grinding job, run the sliding table back and forth with the motor off! Check to make sure there will be adequate clear- ances between the wheel and the holding fix- tures or portions of the part which are not intended to be ground.
