Eye Shield & Spark Guard

The spark guard should be positioned

1

8

" from the

grinding wheel to minimize sparks flying at the
operator. The eye shield must be positioned
between the grinding wheel and the operator’s
face to protect the operator from flying debris—
this is not a replacement for safety glasses!

To install the spark guard and eye shield:

1.

Using the included 5mm screw and washer,
install the spark guard as shown in

Figure 7

.

Attach the eye shield to the support bracket
as shown in

Figure 8

with the included 6mm

carriage bolt, washer and hex nut. Use the
8mm hex bolt and washer to attach the sup-
port bracket to the right wheel cover.

The tool rest attaches to the inward side of the
guard and provides a surface that can be used to
support the workpiece during operation. Certain
types of grinding/sanding may require jigs or
accessories that will be used with the tool rests to
assure the proper angle of the workpiece against
the wheel.

To install the tool rests:

1.

Attach the tool rests with the knob bolts and
5mm washers and hex nuts, without tighten-
ing them completely.

2.

To adjust the angle of the sanding belt tool
rest, use a square or a protractor to set the
angle of the tool rest in relation to the sand-
ing belt.

As a general rule, set the tool rest

90˚ to the belt during the set up procedures.

3.

Adjust both tool rests approximately

1

16

"-

"

from the grinding wheel and the sanding belt.

Figure 6

shows the correct adjustment for

the tool rest at the grinding wheel.

4.

Tighten the tool rests.
