2.1 SAFETY FEATURES
SECTION TWO
SAFETY
SAFETY GLASSES ARE
MANDATORY
EAR DEFENDERS ARE
MANDATORY
These tool grinders are supplied in accordance with the European Machinery Directive
2006/42/EC and subsequent amendments.
2.2 STANDARD SAFETY FEATURES
No volt overload push button starter, which will stop the machine if the motor
becomes overloaded or if a power failure is incurred. The machine will NOT restart
until the STOP button is released and START button pressed.
Automatic safety cut out when cabinet door is opened.
2.3 OPTIONAL SAFETY FEATURES
Foot stop switch and lockable triple pole isolator can be supplied if required.
2.4 VIBRATION
Hand Arm Vibration is a consideration with all off-hand operations. Whilst the idling
vibration generated is generally less than the 2.5m/s² (A8 target limit), though levels in
excess of this may be experienced by the operator.
Depending on the nature of the operation and load applied by the operator,
accelerations in the 3-5m/s² range are possible and in such cases, exposure times may
need to be reduced to meet the A8 (2.5m/s²) target, typically 5.5 hours for a level of
3m/s² and 2 hours for a level of 5m/s² maximum. However, due to the nature of these
machines exposure times tend to be limited and so it is likely that the A8 target can be
achieved in most cases.
In production environments, these values can only be determined by assessment in
operation by using hand arm monitoring equipment. The regular checking of wheels
etc... is highly recommended to prevent abnormal vibrations being experienced.
2.5 NOISE EMISSIONS
Under normal operating conditions the noise level is below 80dbA and ear protection is
not mandatory. However, depending on the consumables used and work piece material,
the noise level can in some cases rise above the 80dbA threshold, in which case ear
defenders are MANDATORY.

2.7 SAFE WORKING PRACTICES
SECTION TWO
SAFETY
DO’S
DONT’S
Always wear suitable eye protection
Force sharp or knife like objects into the
wheel, as this will lead to wheel
disintegration.
Clean the machine regularly especially
when polishing different types of materials
Enter the electrical control panel unless
qualified and the electrical supply is
isolated
Monitor the vibration levels of the machine
and operators
Bear machines have been designed and manufactured to provide many years reliable
service as a tool grinder. Use for any other purpose may lead to personal injury
and/or damage to the machine.
Persons operating these machines should be thoroughly familiar with the properties
and hazards attached to both the machine and any work piece material.
Rules regarding the wearing of protective clothing should be enforced.
Don’t wear a tie, jewellery or loose clothing whilst operating the machine and ensure
long hair is tied back preventing entanglement.
It is important that wheels are kept in good condition – please refer to section 4.5
grinding wheel maintenance.
Any oil spillage should be cleaned up immediately to avoid accidents.

3.1 SHARPENING A CHISEL/PLANE BLADE
SECTION THREE
MACHINE OPERATION
FIG 1
FIG 2
Ensure that every operator has been instructed in the use of all the machine controls.
Insert the swivel arm into the inspection position Fig 1.
Slacken the black knurled knob in the swivel arm and insert the blade to be
sharpened, allowing enough protrusion of the blade to ensure that the tool carrier is
clear of the grinding wheel. Re-tighten the knurled knob.
Move the swivel arm back to the grinding position as shown in Fig 2. Position the
blade ensuring that the edge is flat on the grinding wheel, which is necessary to
ensure an even grind.
If the blade is not flat, it needs to be adjusted. Do this by loosening the locking screw
in the centre of the swivel arm using an allen key and reposition the blade edge.
Set the required angle by moving the swivel arm on the support column until the
required angle is achieved.
Retighten the locking screw.
Press the START button to initiate the machine. To stop the machine, press the STOP
button or FOOT STOP depending on which machine model.
Set the cutting oil flow rate using the control valve. Ensure that the grinding wheel is
adequately lubricated throughout the grinding process.
The blade can be inspected at any time by lifting the swivel arm up into the
inspection position.
3.2 GOUGE SHARPENING
In order to sharpen gouges which have both inner and outer edges, it is necessary to
use the radius attachment. NOTE!!! The radius attachment is supplied with Bear2
models only.
Insert blade to be sharpened as detailed in section 3.1.
In addition to section 3.1, use the top handle on the tool holder to rotate the gouge
back and forth throughout the grinding process. This will grind a radius round the
full edge of the gouge.
10
3.3 CONE WHEEL – BEAR2 MODELS ONLY
SECTION THREE
MACHINE OPERATION
The cone wheel is used to remove any burrs formed on the inner face of a gouge after
sharpening.
Adjust the height of the work rest to the required position.
Start the machine and set the oil flow rate.
Gently put the gouge inner onto the cone to remove any burrs. Be careful not to apply
too much pressure onto the wheel.
3.4 DRESSING THE WHEEL
Over time the grinding wheel will become worn or glazed. To return it to effective
grinding it is necessary to ‘dress’ the wheel.
To use the wheel dresser, remove the swivel arm or radius attachment from the
support column.
Fit the wheel dresser arm onto the support column and secure in place by tightening
the socket screw into the pre-drilled dimple on the support column. Ensure that the
diamond point on the wheel dresser is clear of the wheel.
Unlock the locking nut on the wheel dresser adjustment screw and move the dresser
close to the wheel.
Turn oil feed off and move arm away from the wheel. Now start the machine.
Move the arm across the face of the wheel, lowering the dresser so that it takes a
small cut into the wheel. Repeat this action once more and then bring the arm off the
wheel. Lower the dresser again and re-tighten locking nut.
Move the arm back and forth across the face of the wheel in a smooth action until no
more cutting takes place. If necessary lower the dresser further and repeat this step
until the wheel is fully dressed.
Stop the machine, remove the wheel dresser and replace the swivel arm. Remember
to turn the oil feed on.
11
4.1 GENERAL
SECTION FOUR
MAINTENANCE
All machines in this family are relatively simple and need little attention by way of
maintenance.
The machine is fitted with sealed for life bearings and will require no further
lubrication.
It is recommended that any dust/debris is periodically cleaned off.
Check the machine after each use for damage or broken parts and repair/replace
parts immediately.
4.2 ELECTRICAL
Electrical control circuits must be checked by authorised personnel only.
Access to the contactor assembly is via the inspection hatch on the right hand side
when viewed from the front.
4.3 FILLING THE OIL RESERVOIR
Ensure that the machine is turned off and open the cabinet door.
Fill the tank with approximately 2.5litres of the oil provided. Once filled, the oil
should cover the brass filter. Check that all the drain pipes are located within the
large compartment of the tank, which has a separate filter.
Close the cabinet door and start the machine.
Adjust the flow of oil onto the wheel using the tap in the rear left hand corner. There
should be sufficient oil to lubricate the grinding wheel without flooding it. Any excess
oil will drain back into the tank.
Over time the grinding wheel will soak up the oil, particularly when it is a new wheel.
It is important that the oil level in the tank is maintained and should be checked
regularly.
4.4 CLEANING THE FILTER
Ensure that the machine is turned off and open the cabinet door.
Unbolt the filter tray. Remove the filter from the tray and wash it in paraffin to
remove excessive build-up of waste grinding materials.
Replace the clean filter and close the cabinet door. It is now safe to start the machine.
4.5 GRINDING WHEEL MAINTENANCE
Every wheel must carry an indication of the maker, binder, wheel dimensions and
maximum permissible speed.
All Bear machines are designed to accept ∅406 x 32mm wheels.
New wheels should be subjected to a ‘ringing’ test before being fitted. A ringing test
entails a light tap on the wheel which should produce a clear ringing noise.
12
Chipped or damaged wheels should be replaced immediately.
SECTION FOUR
MAINTENANCE
If a grinding wheel is to cut properly it must run true and not be ‘loaded’ or ‘glazed’.
Loading is when the porous structure of the wheel becomes clogged with work piece
material. Loading can occur when:
1. Soft materials are being ground.
2. The wheel is too hard for a particular job.
3. The wheel has been used repeatedly without dressing.
When ‘loading’ is evident the grinding wheel should be dressed by means of a wheel
dresser such as a diamond dresser, leaving the surface of the wheel clean and edges
neatly rounded.
Keep spare wheels in a dry place at an even temperature and always in accordance
with manufacturer’s instructions.
4.6 VIBRATION & CHATTER
Vibration causes the wheel to wear unevenly and chatter marks will appear on the work
surface. These may be caused by:
1. The machine not being correctly mounted.
2. Loose bearings.
3. Wheel being out of balance.
4. Build up of dust and grease on the grinding wheel.
4.7 GRINDING WHEEL SELECTION
When selecting the grit and grade of a grinding wheel for a particular application the
following guidelines should be taken into account.
1. MATERIAL TO BE GROUND – In general the harder the work piece material
the softer the grade of wheel required. Aluminium Oxide should be used for
grinding metals of high tensile strength such as steel. Carbon Silicate should be
used for metals with low tensile strength such as brass or cast iron.
2. STOCK MATERIAL TO BE REMOVED – For rapid material removal when a
perfect finish is not required, a course grade open structure wheel is ideal.
3. FINISH – To a large extent the finish depends upon the grain size used in the
wheel.
4. WHEEL CONTACT – Greater the area of contact between wheel and work piece,
the softer the wheel required e.g. surface grinding with the periphery of a wheel
where area approximates a line, requires a harder and finer wheel than when
surface grinding with a cup wheel where the area of contact is comparatively
large.
5. WHEEL SPEED – Hard wheels can be made softer by running them at a slow
speed. It is advisable to run a grinding wheel at the speed recommended by the
manufacturer and never exceed the stated maximum operating speed.
13
4.8 WHEEL CHANGE
SECTION FOUR
MAINTENANCE
Grinding wheels MUST be changed by suitably trained personnel and in accordance
with the Abrasive Wheels Regulations.
Isolate/disconnect the power supply.
Remove the nut on the spindle and take off the wheel with the clamp plates.
Clean the area prior to fitting the new wheel.
Replace the wheel.
Ensure that blotters are correctly fitted between the clamp plates and wheel. Only
use the original clamp plates supplied with the machine.
Lock the wheel in place using the supplied nut and clamp plates, ensure the wheel
rotates correctly.

5.1 RISK ASSESSMENT
SECTION FIVE
RISK ASSESSMENT
Bear machines have been developed from machines that RJH Finishing Systems Ltd
have supplied into the market place for many years and have an excellent safety
pedigree. However, like all machines of this type they can be dangerous if used
carelessly or incorrectly.
It is therefore essential that all HAZARDS are identified and SAFE WORKING
PRACTICES are adhered to. What follows is an assessment of the RISKS.
5.2 HAZARDS
FIRE & EXPLOSION not considered to be of any great risk since the grinding process is
well lubricated.
LOW RISK
LIMB ABRASION probably the most common hazard since the process of manual
grinding involves contact with the abrasive wheel, which can lead to skin abrasion.
Good quality gloves (Chrome or Leather) are recommended.
LOW RISK
ENTANGLEMENT potentially the most serious risk since the top of the wheel is
exposed, but provided the safe working practices are followed the risk is considered to
be low.
LOW RISK
BURNING as with all grinding processes considerable heat can be generated in the work
piece and burning of the skin can result if handled carelessly. Good quality gloves
(Chrome or Leather) are strongly recommended along with a quenching aid such as
water etc…
LOW RISK
ELECTROCUTION all electrically powered appliances have the potential to kill. Even
though the machine has simple electrical controls with isolation, overloads, emergency
stop and no volt release there remains a danger. Only qualified personnel MUST access
the control panel.
LOW RISK
EYE DAMAGE with any grinding process there is the possibility of dust/debris entering
the eye(s). The wearing of safety glasses is MANDATORY.
LOW RISK
15
EJECTION OF PARTS/COMPONENTS is present with all grinding processes. Avoid
SECTION FIVE
RISK ASSESSMENT
applying excessive pressure or pressing sharp objects into the wheel as this will
increase the risk of ejection and can result in wheel damage or even breakage.
LOW RISK
VIBRATION caused by the operation will be transmitted to the operator’s arm(s) and in
extreme cases can lead to Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome. The idling vibration is
generally less than 0.5m/s². However, the problem is more operation related than
simply a function of the machine, consumables and process techniques require
evaluation and close monitoring.
TO BE ASSESSED
NOISE depends on the consumables used during operation. Machines such as this will
usually be below 80dbA though it is still highly recommended that ear defenders are
worn.
LOW-MEDIUM RISK
This type of manual equipment has been available for decades and the various
processes with their associated operating hazards are well known, largely chronicled
and manageable. It is our belief that with good operator training and adherence to the
safe working practices this family of machines can be considered to have an overall
LOW RISK for the purposes of the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations
(PUWER).

CUTTING OIL DATA SHEET
HONING FLUID (NEAT CUTTING OIL)
Product Code: AF3.
Product Description
Pennine Honing Fluid is manufactured from highly refined mineral oils treated with active extreme
pressure and lubricity improving agents. It is used primarily in all honing applications including power
stroke honing where cooling units may be utilised. It is particularly suitable for the horizontal honing of
long sections. The low viscosity of this product ensures that fine swarf is easily flushed away and
helps to prevent the build up of heat whilst it's additive treatment gives good lubricity and film strength
to help prevent high heat generation and to avoid pick-up.
Applications
As well as honing applications, the lubricant can be used on deep hole drilling and boring on steels
nickel alloys and non-ferrous materials. It is also used on precision automatic work.
Typical Test Data
Availability
Pennine Honing Fluid is available in bulk, 205 litre barrels, 25 litre drums and 5 litre plastic bottles.
Storage
Barrels of lubricant should always be stored in such a way that will prevent the ingress of water when
stored in the open.
Health and Safety
Please refer to the relevant Health and Safety Data Sheet, a copy of which is freely available to all our
customers.
Data represented is typical of that obtained with normal production tolerances and does not constitute a specification. The
policy of Pennine Lubricants is one of continual improvement, we therefore reserve the right to change specifications without
notice.
