SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS...cont
locked cupboard wherever possible and out of the reach of children.
WEAR THE CORRECT CLOTHING: Do not wear loose clothing, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewellery, which may get caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair. Roll long sleeves up above the elbow.
USE SAFETY GOGGLES AND EAR PROTECTION ETC: Wear CE approved safety goggles at all times, normal spectacles only have impact resistant lenses, they are NOT safety glasses. A face or dust mask should be worn if the operation is dusty and ear protectors (plugs or muffs) should be worn, particularly during extended periods of operation.
PROTECT YOURSELF FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK: When working with power tools, avoid contact with any earthed items (e.g. pipes, radiators, hobs and refrigerators, etc.). It is advisable wherever possible to use an RCD (residual current device) at the mains socket or supply board.
STAY ALERT: Always watch what you are doing and use common sense. Do not operate a grinder when you are tired or under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
DISCONNECT THE TOOL FROM THE MAINS SUPPLY: When not in use, before servicing and when changing accessories such as wheels.
AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING: Make sure the switch is in the OFF position before connecting the grinder to the mains supply.
NEVER LEAVE THE TOOL RUNNING / CONNECTED WHILST UNATTENDED: Turn off the tool and disconnect it from the mains supply between jobs. Do not leave the machine until it comes to a complete stop.
DO NOT ABUSE THE MAINS LEAD: Never carry the grinder by the mains lead or pull it to remove the plug from the mains socket. Keep the mains lead away from heat, oil and sharp edges. If the mains lead is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid unwanted hazards.
CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS: Before every use of the grinder, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate correctly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, free running of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be correctly repaired or replaced by an authorised service centre unless otherwise indicated in this instruction manual. Have defective switches replaced by an authorised service agent. Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.
KEEP ALL GUARDS IN PLACE: And in full working order.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE: Keep tools sharp and clean for the best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. All extension cables must be checked at regular intervals and replaced if damaged.
USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES: Consult this user manual for recommended accessories. Follow the instructions that accompany the accessories. The use of improper accessories may cause hazards and will invalidate any warranty you may have.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS...cont
REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES: Form a habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from the tool before every use.
DO NOT OVERREACH: Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
USE THE RIGHT TOOL: Do not use the tool or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.
DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL: It will do the job better and more safely at the rate which it was designed.
DO NOT OPERATE POWER TOOLS IN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES: Do not use the grinder in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, dust or other combustible sources. Grinding will create sparks which can ignite the dust or fumes.
DO NOT EXPOSE THE TOOL TO RAIN OR USE IT IN WET CONDITIONS: Water entering the grinder will greatly increase the risk of electric shock.
KEEP THE MAINS LEAD WELL AWAY FROM THE CUTTING WHEEL: The mains lead should be secured away from the cutting wheel at all times to avoid the risk of electric shocks. Replace any damaged or tired looking leads immediately with the correct rated cable.
ALWAYS CHECK THE WHEEL: Always inspect the wheel for cracks and general condition before use as they could shatter at high speed causing injury to the operator and fellow work mates . If using an old wheel ensure that it hasn’t gone soft as the bond that holds it together can go off over time.
Use only the wheel flanges and nuts specified for this tool.
Before each use; Ensure that the wheel retaining nuts are fully secure.
Ensure that the grinder is securely bolted to a stable surface so it will not move during operation.
Ensure that all keys and wrenches are removed before operating the grinder.
Ensure that the work-piece to be ground is clear of the grinding wheel before the switch is turned on.
Before turning on the grinder, turn the wheel by hand to ensure nothing is catching, then turn the grinder on and let it run for a while; Watch for vibration or excessive wobble of the wheel that could indicate poor installation or a poorly balanced wheel. Adjust or replace as necessary.
Allow the wheel to run up to full speed before grinding.
Stop operation immediately if you notice, or suspect anything abnormal.
Wait for the grinder to stop completely and remove the plug from the mains supply before servicing or adjusting the grinder.
Be alert at all times, especially during repetitive, monotonous operations. Don't be lulled into a false sense of security. Grinding wheels are extremely unforgiving.
Use of improper accessories such as wire wheels may cause damage to the grinder and surrounding area as well as increasing the risk of injury.
Do not modify the grinder to do tasks other than those for which it was designed.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This grinder is fitted with a standard UK type 230v ~ plug. Before using the grinder inspect the cable and plug to ensure that neither are damaged. If any damage is visible have the grinder inspected / repaired by a suitably qualified person. If it is necessary to replace the plug a heavy duty impact resistant plug would be preferable.
The wires for the plug are coloured in the following way:
Yellow / green
Blue
Brown
Earth
Neutral
Live
As the colours of the wires may not correspond with the markings in your plug, proceed as follows: The wire which is coloured blue, must be connected to the terminal marked with N or coloured black. The wire which is coloured brown, must be connected to the terminal, which is marked L or coloured red. The wire which is coloured yellow / green should be connected to the terminal which is coloured the same or marked.
Cord Grip
Always secure the wires in the plug terminal carefully and tightly.
Secure the cable in the cord grip carefully.
Warning:
Never connect live or neutral wires to the earth terminal of the plug. Only fit an approved plug with the correct rated fuse. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician.
Note: Always make sure the mains supply is of the correct voltage and the correct fuse protection is used. In the event of replacing the fuse always replace the fuse with the same value as the original.
Note: If an extension lead is required in order to reach the mains supply; ensure that this too is rated for the correct voltage and fuse rating.
Note: The cross section of the extension lead should be checked so that it is of sufficient size so as to reduce the chances of voltage drops.

MAINTENANCE
Warning! Always ensure that the grinder is turned off and that the plug is disconnected from the mains supply before carrying out any adjustments, repairs or maintenance.
CLEANING AND ADJUSTMENTS
As the wheels wear, adjust the positions of the tool rests and spark arrestors; They should be set so that they are as close to the grinding wheel as possible, but without touching.
Regularly remove the wheel covers and clean out any dust and dirt.
The machine motor and bearings are sealed units and require no regular maintenance.
The eye shields should be cleaned regularly so that the operator has a clear view of the work-piece and grinding wheel. Mild soap and water should be used; never use solvents or similar products as they will damage the eye shield/s.
REPLACING THE GRINDING WHEELS (DRY)
Warning! Always ensure that a ’blotter’ (cardboard disc between the flange and the grinding wheel) is fitted either side of the grinding wheel.
Warning! Always ensure that the replacement wheel is of the correct size and rated for the speed of the grinder as stated in the specifications.
Over time during normal usage the grinding wheels will become worn and need to be replaced.
Remove the 3 screws that hold the side cover on (below, left).
Remove the cover (below, right).

Fit the eye shied between the ‘arms’ of the spark arrestor and secure in place using the screw, washers and nut (Fig. 5).
Note: Take care not to over tighten the screw as this will damage the eye shield; It only needs to be tight enough to hold the eye shield in place whilst allowing the operator to easily change the angle.
Follow these instructions to fit the other eye shield to the opposite side (07546 & 07557 only).
FITTING THE TOOL REST
The tool rest fits directly to the front of the guard (Fig. 6).

Note: As with spark arrestor, the tool-rest should be set close to the grinding wheel, without touching; turn the wheel by hand to ensure there is no contact.
Follow these instructions to fit the other tool-rest to the opposite side (07546 & 07557 only).
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Note: Before each operation; Turn the grinding wheel by hand to ensure that the wheel turns freely without catching the tool rest etc.
Danger / Caution: Always ensure that the wheel retaining nut is fully tightened and the wheel is secure before each operation.
Correct working practice:
Maintain a steady, moderate pressure on the work piece and keep it moving at an even pace for smooth grinding.
Pressing too hard overheats the motor and prematurely wears down the grinding wheels. The grinding wheel should rotate into the object, being sharpened. Keep a tray filled with water and dip your work into it regularly to prevent overheating.
Do not use the side of the grinding wheel; This puts dangerous stress on the wheel.
When the wheel becomes loaded or ‘dull’, use an approved grinding wheel dresser and dress the wheel face.

Warning!
Always ensure that the grinder is bolted down onto a secure surface prior to operation.
SWITCHING THE GRINDER ON/OFF
The switch is located on the front of the grinder near the bottom.
To turn the grinder on, depress the rocker switch on the right hand side (I), to turn the tool off, depress the left hand side of the rocker switch (0).
Note: Before starting the grinder, turn the wheels by hand making sure they are clear of obstructions and that they turn freely. The tool rests and eye shields should not touch the wheel.
Note: Turn on the grinder and allow it to reach full running speed before starting to grind.
GRINDING WITH THE WET STONE
Fill the water carrier with clean water to just below the lower fill level (see below).
Operate the On/Off switch as described above.
Once the job is complete; use the drain bung (below) to release the water from the carrier - Never leave the water in the carrier for an extended period.
