The following section is designed to give instructions on
the basic operations of this bench grinder. However, it is
in no way comprehensive of every grinder application. It is
strongly recommended that you read books, trade maga-
zines, or get formal training to maximize the potential of
your grinder and to minimize the risks.
BASIC PRECAUTIONS
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:
• Keep the object in constant motion, moving it at an even
pace.
• Never force a tool against the grinding wheel.
• Keep the tool cool by using either the coolant tray or a
pan of water.
• The grinding wheel should rotate "into" the object being
sharpened.
