**Used on 12 gauge - 20 amp circuit. NOTE: AWG = American Wire Gauge
When working with the tool outdoors, use an extension cord that is designed for outside use. This is indicated by the letters “W-A” or “W” on the cord's jacket.
Before using an extension cord, inspect it for loose or exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.
WARNING:
Keep the extension cord clear of the working area. Position the cord so that it will not get caught on lumber, tools or other obstructions while you are working with a power tool. Failure to do so can result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Check extension cords before each use. If damaged replace immediately. Never use tool with a damaged cord since touching the damaged area could cause electrical shock resulting in serious injury.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This tool is powered by a precision built electric motor. It should be connected to a power supply that is 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only (normal household current). Do not operate this tool on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop will cause a loss of power and the motor will overheat. If the grinder does not operate when plugged into an outlet, double check the power supply.
SPEED AND WIRING
The no-load speed of this tool is approximately 3,600 rpm. This speed is not constant and decreases under a load or with lower voltage. For voltage, the wiring in a shop is as important as the motor’s horsepower rating. A line intended only for lights cannot properly carry a power tool motor. Wire that is heavy enough for a short distance will be too light for a greater distance. A line that can support one power tool may not be able to support two or three tools.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
See Figure 1, page 11.
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.
Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet like the one shown in figure 1. It also has a grounding pin like the one shown.

WARNING:
Do not use any attachments or accessories not recommended by the manufacturer of this tool. The use of attachments or accessories not recommended can result in serious personal injury.
APPLICATIONS
This product has been designed only for the purposes listed below:
Sharpening drill bits
Sharpening lawn mower blades
Sharpening chisels and flat screwdrivers
LED LIGHT SWITCH
See Figure 10, page 14.
Use the LED light switch on top of the spark shield assembly to turn the lights on and off.
BASIC OPERATION
To be efficient and work as designed, your tools should be kept sharp. Dull tools can and will cause accidents.
Bench grinders are ideal for sharpening tools such as chisels, scissors, etc., and for removing rust or corrosion. Grinders remove material rapidly so pressure is the key to efficient grinding.
The proper way to sharpen a tool and avoid overheating is:
Keep the object in constant motion, moving it at an even pace.
Never force a tool against the grinding wheel.
Keep the tool cool by using a pan of water.
The grinding wheel should rotate “into” the object being sharpened.
NOTE: Excessive pressure may damage the tool, cause the motor to overheat, and prematurely wear down the grinding wheel.
WARNING:
Excessive pressure on a cold wheel could cause the wheel to crack.
USING COOLANT TRAY
The coolant tray allows you to cool overheated workpieces. Fill tray half way with water or appropriate coolant.
ON/OFF SWITCH
See Figure 11, page 14.
The Bench Grinder features a front access On/Off switch for convenience and safety.
SHARPENING TWIST DRILL BITS
See Figure 12, page 14.
Drill bits are best sharpened on a sharpening jig (available at most hardware stores). Begin on one side of the point at the existing angle, then twist the bit while maintaining contact with the grinding surface. Sharpen only the tip.
This technique requires considerable practice, so take your time and make a few “dry runs” first with the grinder off. Be sure to maintain the original cutting edge angle as this is important to the efficiency of your bits. One work rest has a V-groove angled to fit most drill bits.
SHARPENING LAWN MOWER BLADES
See Figure 13, page 14.
Lawn mower blades are usually sharpened on only one edge and dressed up slightly on the other. Perform this sharpening process on both cutting ends of the blade. After sharpening, be sure to balance the blade by removing additional material.
NOTICE:
An unbalanced lawn mower blade may cause excessive vibration which will damage the lawn mower.
SHARPENING CHISELS AND SCREWDRIVER BLADES
See Figure 14, page 14.
When sharpening chisels and screwdrivers, work rest should support the chisel at the correct angle against the wheel.

ASSURER LA SÉCURITÉ DES ENFANTS en installant des cadenas et des disjoncteurs ou en retirant les clés de contact.
NE PAS FORCER L’OUTIL. Il exécutera le travail mieux et de façon moins dangereuse s’il fonctionne dans les limites prévues.
UTILISER L’OUTIL APPROPRIÉ. Ne pas utiliser l’outil ou un accessoire pour effectuer un travail pour lequel il n’est pas conçu. Ne ne pas utiliser l’outil pour une application non prévue.
UTILISER UN CORDON PROLONGATEUR ADÉQUAT.
S’assurer que le cordon prolongateur est en bon état. Utiliser exclusivement un cordon d’une capacité suffisante pour supporter le courant de fonctionnement de l’outil. Un cordon de capacité insuffisante causerait une baisse de la tension de ligne, entraînant une perte de puissance et une surchauffe. Un calibre de fil (A.W.G.) d’au minimum 16 est recommandé pour un cordon prolongateur de 7,6 m (25 pi) ou moins. En cas de doute, utiliser un
cordon du calibre immédiatement supérieur. Moins le numéro de calibre est élevé, plus la capacité du fil est grande.
PORTER UNE TENUE APPROPRIÉE. Ne porter pas porter de vêtements amples, gants, cravate ou bijoux. Ces articles pourraient être happés et tirer la main ou une parie du corps dans les pièces en mouvement. Des gants en caoutchouc et des chaussures antidérapantes sont recommandées pour le travail à l’extérieur. Les cheveux longs doivent être ramassés sous un couvre-chef.

NE PAS TRAVAILLER HORS DE PORTÉE. Toujours se tenir bien campé et en équilibre.
ENTRETENIR SOIGNEUSEMENT LES OUTILS. Garder les outils bien affûtés et propres pour accroître la sécurité et les performances. Suivre les instructions de lubrification et de changement d’accessoires.
DÉBRANCHER TOUS LES OUTILS. Tous les outils doivent être débranchés lorsqu’ils ne sont pas en usage et avant toute opération d’entretien ou de changement d’accessoire, de meule, etc.
ÉVITER LES DÉMARRAGES ACCIDENTELS. S’assurer que le commutateur est en position d’arrêt avant de brancher un outil.
UTILISER LES ACCESSOIRES RECOMMANDÉS. Voir lesaccessoiresrecommandésdanslemanueld’utilisation. L’emploi de tout accessoire inadapté peut présenter un risque de blessure.

VÉRIFIER L’ÉTAT DES PIÈCES. Avant d’utiliser l’outil de nouveau examiner soigneusement les pièces et dispositifs de protection qui semblent endommagés afin de déterminer s’ils fonctionnent correctement et s’ils remplissent les fonctions prévues. Vérifier l’alignement des pièces mobiles, s’assurer qu’aucune pièce n’est bloquée ou cassée, vérifier la fixation de chaque pièce et s’assurer qu’aucun autre problème ne risque d’affecter le bon fonctionnement de l’outil. Pour éviter les risques de blessures, toute protection ou pièce endommagée doit être correctement réparée ou remplacée dans un centre de réparations agréé.
