Operating Instructions Before You Start - Safety Always wear eye protection that complies with a recognized standard (for example: ANSI Z87.1) (CSA or ANSI). Wear a mask or respirator when dust is generated. Keep bystanders out of the work area while operating the tool. WARNING! Always ensure that the work area is clear of any flammable materials, liquids or gasses, because the use of this tool may create sparks. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep hair tied back.
Use of Extension Cords USE ONLY THREE-WIRED EXTENSION CORDS that have 3-pronged plugs and 3-holed outlets that accept the tool’s plug. Repair or replace damaged or worn cords immediately. Be sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good condition. Do not use damaged extension cords. Always replace a damaged extension cord. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw.
Before You Start – Assembly and Installation Mounting the Grinder to the Workbench Before attempting to use this grinder, it must be properly mounted to a workbench or grinding stand (ATD-10557). CAUTION! Bench grinders vibrate. Grinder movement during high-speed rotation may cause injury or damage to the workpiece or operator. Mount the grinder securely to a sturdy workbench or grinding stand. 1. Position the grinder on the workbench. 2.
NOTE: The eye shield should move freely when being adjusted, but stay in place when the locking knob is tightened. WARNING! Turn the power off and remove the plug from the outlet before changing the grinding wheels. When turning the grinder on with a newly installed wheel, DO NOT STAND IN FRONT OF THE GRINDER. Stand to the side and allow the grinder to run for at least one minute before proceeding to use it. Installing or Changing the Wheel 1.
Tool Rest Adjustments and Installation Mount the tool rests to the work rest bracket using the knob and washers. Before tightening the knob, adjust the gap between the grinding wheel and the work rest to a maximum of 1/8” (3.2 mm). Tighten securely. Adjustments To prevent the workpiece from being pulled and caught between the tool rest and the wheel, readjust the tool rest position whenever necessary to maintain the 1/8” (3.2 mm) distance. 1. Loosen, but do not remove, the knob holding the tool rest arm.
If the face of the grinding wheel is worn unevenly, becomes grooved, or is no longer smooth and flat, the wheel should be reshaped with a dressing tool (not supplied). If the diameter of the grinding wheel is no longer round, the wheel should be reshaped with a dressing tool or replaced. If the surface of the wheel becomes loaded and dull with workpiece material, the wheel should be cleaned with a dressing tool. After reshaping, always readjust the tool rests and spark arrestors.
