ATTACHING SPARK SHIELD TO SPARK
DEFLECTOR WITH LED
See Figure 4, page 12.

Hold the bolt and rotate the spark shield knob counter-
clockwise to loosen.
 Remove the bolt and spark shield knob.
 Place spark shield onto spark deflector with LED
assembly. Align the holes in the spark shield with the
holes in the spark deflector with LED assembly.
 Install bolt through the holes in the spark deflector with
LED assembly and spark shield.
NOTE: Orient the bolt so that the head of the bolt sits in
the recessed area of the spark shield.
 Reinstall spark shield knob onto the bolt. Tighten securely.
MOUNTING SPARK SHIELDS ASSEMBLY
See Figure 5, page 12.

Attach the spark shield assembly to the wheel guard using
two screws, washers, and lock washers.
 Tighten screw securely.
 Repeat above steps for the second spark shield assembly.
NOTE: The spark shields can be installed on either side
of the tool. For detailed grinding, it’s recommended to
place the spark shield with magnifier on the right side
above the finer wheel.
MOUNTING WORK RESTS
See Figure 6, page 13.

Remove the bracket knob, star washer, and washer from the
carriage bolt on the lower portion of right wheel guard.
 Using the slotted screw, star washer, washer and bracket
knob, attach the work rest bracket to the inside of the
wheel guard as shown.
NOTE: The grooved work rest mounts on the left side.
NOTE: The work rest bracket’s lower slot must be posi-
tioned over the pin on the guard.
 With the work rest knob, install the work rest to the
bracket.
 Repeat above steps for the left work rest.
NOTE: Adjust the distance between the wheel and the work
rest to maintain 1/16 in. or less separation as the diameter
of the wheel decreases with use.
ASSEMBLY
INSTALLING/REMOVING BATTERIES
See Figure 7, page 13.
Always turn the on/off switch to the OFF position when
installing batteries.

Remove battery covers from the spark deflectors with
LED assemblies.
 Install AAA batteries according to the polarity indicators
(+ or -) inside the battery compartments.
 Replace and secure the battery covers.
INSTALLING COOLANT TRAY
See Figure 8, page 13.
Place coolant tray over the coolant tray bracket then firmly
push tray down onto the bracket to secure in place.
MOUNTING GRINDER TO WORKBENCH
See Figure 9, page 13.
If grinder is to be used in a permanent location, it should be
fastened securely to a firm supporting surface, such as a
workbench with bolts.

Use 1/4 in. bolts, washers, and nuts (not included). The
bolt length should be 1-1/2 in. plus the thickness of the
workbench.
 Locate and mark the holes where the grinder is to be
mounted.
 Drill four 3/8 in. diameter holes through workbench.
 Place sander on workbench, aligning holes in base with
holes drilled in workbench.
 Insert four 1/4 in. diameter bolts and washers and attach
nuts securely.
WARNING:
Always make sure your bench grinder is securely
mounted to a workbench. Failure to do so could result in
an accident resulting in possible serious personal injury.
