Thank you for purchasing this CLARKE BENCH GRINDER, which is designed for DIY
and general workshop use.
Before attempting to operate this machine, please read this instruction manual
thoroughly and follow all directions carefully. By doing so you will ensure the safety
of both yourself and others around you, and at the same time, you should look
forward to long and trouble free service from your Bench Grinder.
GUARANTEE
This product is guaranteed against faults in manufacture for 12 months from
purchase date. Keep your receipt as proof of purchase. This guarantee is invalid
if the product has been found to have been abused in any way, or not used for the
purpose for which it was intended, or to have been tampered with in any way. The
reason for return must be clearly stated. This guarantee does not affect your
statutory rights.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES
1. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and check they are not damaged.
2. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Make a habit of checking to see
that all adjusting keys and wrenches are removed from machine before
turning it on.
3. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and work benches invite accidents
4. DO NOT USE IN A DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Do not use any power tools
in damp or wet areas, or expose them to rain. Keep work area well lit.
5. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors, but in particular children, should be kept at
a safe distance away from the work area.
6. MAKE YOUR WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF with padlocks, master switches, or by
removing starter keys.
7. DO NOT FORCE YOUR BENCH GRINDER. It will do a better and safer job if used
at the rate for which it was designed.

8. WEAR THE PROPER APPAREL. No loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings,
bracelets, or any other jewellery which might get caught in moving parts.
Non-slip footwear is recommended. Long hair should be contained.
9. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Everyday glasses only have impact resistant
lenses, they are not safety glasses. Also use a face mask if a lot of dust is
generated.
10. DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep a firm footing and proper balance at all times.
11. DISCONNECT FROM THE MAINS before attempting any kind of service work or
adjustment or when changing accessories such as grinding wheels.
12. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest
performance.
13. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Make sure switch is in the OFF
position before plugging in.
14. CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS. Before using the machine, always check parts
for signs of damage, and to ensure they are secure. If a component suffers
slight damage, (eg. a distorted guard or bracket), make sure it will perform its
intended function properly before switching on. If in doubt, do not use the
machine. ALWAYS be prepared to SWITCH OFF IMMEDIATELY, if you
experience unusual noises, or excessive vibration. Do not use the machine
until the fault is fully rectified.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR BENCH GRINDERS
1. Replace a cracked wheel immediately.
2. Always use guards and eye shield
3. Do not overtighten wheel nut.
4. Maintain the distance between wheel and tool rest to 1/16 (1.6mm) or less as
the diameter of the wheel decreases with use.
5. Use a grinding wheel suitable for the speed of grinder. (See technical data).
6. Stand to one side of bench grinder during operation, not directly in front.
7. One minute of free rotation is necessary for a new grinding wheel. Should the
new grinding wheel be faulty and break, it will happen within the first minute
of operation.
8. Do not remove the wheel guard except when changing a worn wheel.
9. Do not use the grinding wheel for any kind of cutting.
10. Do not use the side of the wheel for any reason.
11. Do not over stress the grinding wheel.
12. NEVER leave a grinder running unattended. Turn power off. Do not leave tool
until it comes to a complete stop.
13. Use ONLY approved replacement grinding wheels. Contact your local dealer
for approved replacement grinding wheels. The use of inferior parts may risk
of injury.

brackets from time to time. Adjustments can be made by loosening the mounting
screw, and positioning the bracket accordingly, remembering to re-tighten the
screw once adjustment is complete.
The see-through Eye Shields allow the user to see the operation clearly, and to work
precisely. The eye shields can be adjusted on their pivots to suit the operator.
IMPORTANT: Even though Eye Shields are fitted, you should nevertheless, ALWAYS
wear safety goggles when operating a grinding machine.
B. TOOL REST ADJUSTMENT
The appropriate adjustment of the tool rests provides the operator with a correct
working angle and a firm and efficient base for working. A gap of approx. 1/16"
between the wheel and tool rest should be maintained at all times. Due to wear on
the grinding wheel, it is necessary to adjust the tool rests from time to time.
Adjustments can be made by loosening the mounting screws, and positioning the
tool rest accordingly, remembering to re-tighten the screws once adjustment is
complete.
C. CHANGING THE GRINDING / WIRE WHEEL
1. Remove outside wheel cover, by unscrewing the cover retaining bolts, and
slacken the Tool Rest and Spark Arrester mounting screws.
2. Holding the wheel firmly, remove the nut and flange using the correct size
spanner, noting that the left wheel nut carries a left hand thread.
IMPORTANT: Always wear a heavy duty glove to hold a wire wheel.
3. Take off the used wheel and replace with a new one, ensuring the blotter is in
place between the wheel and flange. Do not overtighten the nut - holding
the wheel with your hand will enable you to apply sufficient force to tighten
the nut effectively.
4. Re-assemble, steps A & B as detailed above, ensuring that there is a good
balanced rotation of the wheel.
5. Switch on the machine and allow the wheel to rotate freely, for at least 1
minute.
D. DRESSING THE WHEEL
It will be necessary from time to time to dress the wheel, to obtain a true working
surface. This should be done ONLY with an approved dressing tool, which can be
obtained from your CLARKE dealer, quoting Model Number GWD-1. Part No.
6501120.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Connect the mains lead to a standard, 230 volt (50Hz) electrical supply through a

IMPORTANT NOTICE
If this appliance is fitted with a plug which is moulded on to the electric cable (i.e.
non rewirable) please note:
1. This plug must be thrown away if it is cut from the electric cable. There is a
danger of electric shock if it is subsequently inserted in a socket outlet.
2. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.
3. Should you wish to replace a detachable fuse carrier, ensure that the correct
re-placement is used (as indicated by marking or colour code).
4. Replacement fuse covers can be obtained from your local dealer, or an
electrical stockist.
5. The fuse in the plug must be 5 Amps, and any replacement must be ASTA
