Reconnect the grinder to the mains supply, give the grinder a 'short burst', by switching it on and off quickly. Check the grinder is not subject to any undue vibration . If the grinder does vibrate, strip it down again and check that the bush (if fitted) is correctly positioned and is the correct size for the stone and the spindle. Check the bore of the stone is correct.
