Safety Instructions for Bench Grinder
Know your Power Tool – Read the Owners Manual carefully. Learn the tools applications and limitations, as well as the potential hazards.
When installing or moving the bench grinder:
• Be certain to inspect the grinding wheels
• Any wheels that have been damaged should be replaced immediately to prevent
shattering of wheels during use
• Put the bench grinder on a firm and level surface with plenty of room for
handling and supporting the work piece
• Use the bench grinder in a dry indoor place protected from rain
• Keep the work area well lit
Disconnect power source before servicing or changing accessories such as grindingwheels.
Make sure the switch is on the “OFF” position before plugging in.
Avoid injury from accidental contact with moving parts.
Keep guards in place and in working order.
Use the right tools – Do not force a tool or attachment to do a job for which it was notdesigned.
Do not over reach – Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
Keep children away – Keep all visitors a safe distance from the bench grinder. Make surebystanders are clear of the grinder and the workplace.
Direction of feed – Feed work into the grinding wheel against the direction of the rotationof the wheel.
8109654 manual 5/12/06 8:15 AM Page 3
Dress for Safety
Wear proper apparel – Do not wear loose clothing, neckties, rings or other jewelry, whichmay get caught in moving parts. Rubber soled footwear is recommended for best footing. Tie back or wear protective haircovering to contain long hair.
Wear gloves when grinding work piece as object may become very sharp or hot and causeinjury.
Always use safety glasses – Also use a dust mask if grinding operation is dusty.
Before Each Use:
Check for damaged parts – Any damaged parts should be replaced to ensure properoperation of the bench grinder. Check for misalignment of wheels, breakage of parts,mounting, or any condition that may affect grinder operation.
Remove adjusting keys and wrenches – Form a habit of checking to see that keys andadjusting wrenches are removed from tool area before turning on the grinder.
Adjust the distance between the grinding wheel and the work rest to maintain 1/16"or less separation - the diameter of the wheel decreases with each use.
After Each Use:
Never leave the bench grinder running unattended.
Always turn the power off.
Do not leave the grinder until it comes to a complete stop.

WARNING: Do not let your fingers touch the plug terminals when plugging in orunplugging.
WARNING: If not properly grounded, this power tool can cause an electrical shock,particularly when used in damp locations in. Be aware, if an electrical shock occurs,there is also the potential of a secondary hazard such as your hands contacting thegrinding tool.
Extension CordsUse 3 wire extension cords which have three prong grounding type plugs and three prongreceptacles, which accept the tools plug. Repair or replace damaged or worn cordimmediately.

Operation
ALWAYS WEAR PROTECTIVE EYE WEAR WHEN USING THE GRINDER
Keep a steady moderate pressure on the work piece and keep it moving at an even pace forsmooth grinding. Pressing too hard overheats the motor and prematurely wears down thegrinding wheels. Note the original bevel angle on the item to be sharpened and try tomaintain this shape. The grinding wheel should rotate into the object being sharpened. Keepa tray filled with water and dip your work into it regularly to prevent overheating.
ScissorsIf possible, take the scissors apart to make the sharpening operation easier andsafer. Remove material only from the outside surface and work from the heavy endof the blade toward the tip.
KnivesRemove metal from both faces of most knives, working from the heavy end of theblade toward the tip.
ScrewdriversThe end of a properly sharpened screwdriver will be a perfect rectangle, absolutelyflat and perpendicular to the center line of the shank. The two sides and two faceswill taper outward from the edge of the shoulder or shank. They should be flat withintersecting faces perpendicular. Hold each face of the screwdriver against thewheel to true it up, then ease the end straight into the stone to grind it true.
Twist Drill BitsDrill bits are best sharpened using a sharpening jig. Begin on one side of the pointat the existing angle and then twist the bit while maintaining a constant angle withthe grinding surface. Sharpen only the tip. This technique requires considerablepractice.
Lawn Mower BladesLawn mower blades are usually sharpened on only one side and dressed up slightlyon the other side. After sharpening be sure to balance the blade by removingadditional material from the heavy end. Unbalanced blades can cause serious crankshaft damage to your lawn mower. Always remove spark plug wires from themower before servicing the blades to prevent accidental starting.

MaintenanceWARNING: For your own safety, turn switch to “OFF” and remove plug from power sourceoutlet before adjusting and maintaining your bench grinder. If power cord is worn, cut ordamaged in any way, have it replaced immediately.
Care of Grinding WheelsIn normal use, grinding wheels may become cracked, grooved, rounded at the edges,chipped, out of true or loaded with foreign material. Cracked wheels should be replacedimmediately, while any other conditions can be remedied with a dressing tool. New wheelssometimes require dressing to make them round.
