Mounting Bench Grinder If during operation of the bench grinder there is any tendency for the grinder to slide or "walk" or to tip over, then the grinder must be secured to a work bench or other supporting surface using fasteners (not supplied) through the two holes in the grinder base.

English OPERATION IMPORTANT: Before each use of the bench grinder, inspect its general condition. Check for loose screws, damaged electrical wiring, cracked, chipped, or damaged wheels and misalignment or binding of the moving parts. If bench or pedestal mounted, check that all fasteners are in place and tight. CAUTION: Keep your bench grinder clean by removing dust from working parts, the lower portion of the wheel guard assembly, and the work area surrounding the grinder.
Because grinders can remove material rapidly, a freshly dressed wheel and the amount of work piece pressure applied to the wheel are keys to efficient grinding. Use the following basic guidelines to aid in working metals and avoid overheating: • Never force the work piece against the grinding wheel. • Always keep the work piece constantly moving against the grinding wheel with light pressure and even motion. • Keep the work piece cool by maintaining a container of water nearby for dipping the work piece.
English Sharpening Wood Chisels & Plane Irons: As in all freehand sharpening operations, practicing the technique and actual sharpening experience are the best teachers. Sharpening chisels and irons on the bench grinder will produce razor sharp hollow ground bevels which must be followed by honing on a whetstone. Use the following tips to help develop your sharpening skill and success. 1. The chisel cutting edge must be free of nicks and be 90° to the chisel edge.
