Please read the section entitled Illustration and
Parts Description, in order for you to understand the
terminology that we will use, so that you may better
understand the working and capability of your grinder.
Keep this manual to hand for reference for any other
personnel that may be required to use the grinder.
Having assembled all the grinder attachments loosely,
now the machine has to be set up correctly and all the
attachments securely fastened.
Place the grinder on a flat level surface.
Position the tool rests leaving a gap of approximately one
and a half millimetres between the grindstone and the
rest, with the rest horizontal (preferably) tighten the star
nuts securely. (See fig 4)
Fig 4.
Position the eye shields on their pivot bolts, (if necessary, 'nip' the clamping bolt of the eye shield clamp so that the eye
shields remain in place). If there is any tendency for the grinder to move, tip or tilt while it is being operated, it should be
bolted down; either to the bench or to a specific stand. It is a good idea to dress new grindstones before use, to remove
any possible irregularities, and ensure the stones are running concentrically.
Carry out a final check e.g. start the machine, check it runs
smoothly. On each side, check that the spark guard is
adjusted down to the stone, check the gap between the
tool rest and the stone is correct, check the stone is not
badly deformed (rounded edges, grooved face, etc; unless
you have specifically shaped the stone to these profiles)
check the eye shield is correctly positioned. Have a cooling
pot to hand if you need it, and remember safety goggles
are a good investment. (you are only issued with one pair
of eyes).
Adjust the spark guards until they are just clear of the
grindstone; fasten the fixing bolts securely. (See fig 5)
