Notes

  • A bench grinder is for grinding steels or deburring steel or aluminum (if fitted with a wire wheel).

Specs

  • Wheel size ??
  • 120V, 3.1A
  • 3600 RPM

Usage Notes

  • Use the guard
  • Use eye protection at all times
  • Grinding is loud, ear protection is suggested, hearing damage may result
  • First contact is often surprisingly strong, grip extra tight
  • Grinding metal gets hot, pause to let it cool or douse it in water
  • DO NOT wear gloves, they are a tangling hazard and will result in worse injuries
  • Angle metal downward or it can kick out at you
  • Do not load motor down so that it slows, exert less pressure and grind slower if an audible speed difference is heard in RPM
