BASIC OPERATION
To be efficient and work as designed, your tools should be kept sharp. Dull tools can and will cause accidents.
Bench Grinders are ideal for sharpening tools such as chisels, planer blades, scissors, etc., and for removing rust or corrosion.
WARNING:
Never sharpen or grind anything made of aluminum, brass, or copper.
Grinders remove material rapidly so pressure is the key to efficient grinding.
The proper way to sharpen a tool and avoid overheating is:
nKeep the object in constant motion, moving it at an even pace.
nNever force a tool against the grinding wheel.
nKeep the tool cool by using either the coolant tray or a pan of water.
nThe grinding wheel should rotate “into” the object being sharpened.
NOTE: Excessive pressure may damage the tool, cause the motor to overheat, and prematurely wear down the grinding wheel.
WARNING:
Excessive pressure on a cold wheel may cause the wheel to crack.
