8 OPERATION AND TROUBLESHOOTING
8.1 Operating (Fig. A)
▪
Make sure the grinder is securely mounted; mounting holes (13) are provided in the base
of the grinder for this purpose, but the screws are not provided.
▪ Plug in the mains supply and push the on/off switch to the "on" (I) position.
▪
The grinder speed can be adjusted using the speed dial (7).
▪
Switch off and unplug the grinder when not in use.
8.2 Using the grinder
▪
Your bench grinder is useful for sharpening tools, e.g. drills, chisels; refacing tools, e.g.
removing burrs from tool edges; removing material, however this is not a heavy duty tool
and is designed primarily for light home and hobby use.
▪
The two different types of wheel will allow the grinder to meet various needs.
▪
Typically, use the coarse grinding wheel for rough cutting, i.e. removing a larger amount of
material.
▪
Use the medium wheel for finishing to leave a smoother surface.
▪
If the grinder is used on soft metals such as aluminium, the wheel will soon clog and will
have to be changed.
▪
At all times, let the grinder do the work, do not force it or apply excessive pressure to the
wheel/cutter.
▪
Try to use the tool rest for supporting and guiding the workpiece.
▪
Do not grind using the side cheeks of the grinding wheel as undue pressure on the side of
the wheel could cause the wheel to shatter.
