About Your New Grinder
The Grizzly Model H3117 is a variable speed,
Please take the time to become familiar with this instruction manual. The informa- tion contained will allow you to get the maximum enjoyment and use from your new tool.
Installing Bits
The Model H3117 can use most bits and cutters that have a 1⁄8" diameter shaft. See the Grizzly catalog or website for a com- plete listing of available bits and acces- sories.
DO NOT use bits or cutters with a cutting surface larger than 1" in diameter. The bit could break apart under the stresses of high speed use causing serious personal injury.
To install a bit:
1.Unplug the tool from the power source!
2.Depress the Collet Lock. The Collet Lock is a small black button near the ip of the Grinder. Initially the Collet Lock may not depress when pushed; how- ever, continue to apply and hold pres- sure on the Collet Lock.
3.While applying pressure to the Collet Lock, use your other hand to rotate the Collet Nut and loosen it. At some point through the rotation the Collet Lock will engage, preventing further rotation of the Collet Nut.
4.With the Collet Lock engaged, the Collet Nut should easily loosen and unthread by hand. DO NOT complete- ly remove the Collet Nut from the shaft.
5.Insert the end of a bit into the Collet. At least 1⁄2" of the bit shaft should be mounted into the end of the Collet.
6.While depressing the Collet Lock, rotate the Collet Nut to secure the bit. Only hand tighten the bit. Excessive tightening with the Collet Wrench is not necessary.
Before Start Up
1.Be sure the bit and the Collet Nut are secure on the grinder shaft.
2.Wear safety glasses and a dust mask when operating the grinder.
3.Turn the Power Switch to the OFF
4.Plug the grinder into the power source.
