ASSEMBLY

SHIELD BRACKET ASSEMBLY

See Figure 5.

Note: The hardware used for assembling the safety shields to the shield brackets has been preassembled and prepackaged.

Remove the two phillips head screws, washers, and hex nuts from the shield bracket. Fit the shield bracket to the top of the safety shield. Reattach the screws, washers, and hex nuts taking care not to tighten the screws so tight as to crack the plastic. Repeat for the other shield bracket and safety shield.

WARNING:

To prevent personal injury, never operate the bench grinder unless the safety shields and spark deflectors are properly installed and in place.

MOUNTING SAFETY SHIELDS

See Figures 6a - 6c.

Mount the left and right shield rods to the inside of the wheel guards using the clamp brackets, hex bolts (8 mm x 14 mm), and washers (8 mm).

Locate your grinder in figures 6a, 6b, or 6c. Use the illus- tration as a guide to determine which shield rod is mounted on the left and which shield rod is mounted on the right of the grinder.

Once shield rods are firmly in place, slide the shield bracket onto the shield rod. Tighten the carriage bolt leaving it loose enough to allow the safety shield to be raised and lowered easily.
