3. Installation

The grinder must be firmly bolted to a workbench.

The length of the fixing bolts will depend on the

thickness of the workbench. If the workbench is

made of steel, it is advisable to use a wooden

block or plank between the grinder and the bench,

to insulate it and prevent vibration.

4. Operation

Selecting the grinding wheel

Coarse grinding wheels will in general remove the

most material, and fine grinding wheels are used

for finishing. If the surface is uneven, begin by

using a coarse grinding wheel, and grind the

workpiece until it is smooth. Next use a fine

grinding wheel to remove the grooves and

scratching left by the coarse wheel, and finish off

the workpiece.

Grinding

The grinding machine comes with one grinding

disc for dry grinding and one for wet grinding. In

principle, the dry-grinding disc is suited for corase

grinding and the wet-grinding disc for fine grinding

where it suffices to press the workpiece lightly

against the grinding stone. This grinding machine

has been especially designed for treating and

grinding tools with cutting edges such as knives,

scissors, chisels, etc. For best results, fill the

water container with tap water.

To prevent the grinding surface from blocking up,

avoid holding wood, lead or any other soft material

or metal against the grinding wheel. To avoid

creating grooves, do not press the workpiece too

firmly on the grinding wheel. Use water to regularly

cool the workpiece being ground. Wood chisels

and the like should never be sharpened ‘blue’.

Take care not to lose your grip on the object being

ground, as it may suddenly become jammed
