    contact with the workpiece. SECURE WORK. Always hold workpiece firmly against

    the work rest. DO NOT USE THE BENCH GRINDER if the flange nut

    or clamp nut is missing or if the spindle shaft is bent. FREQUENTLY clean grinding dust from beneath grinder. DO NOT OPERATE THIS TOOL WHILE UNDER THE

    INFLUENCE OF DRUGS, ALCOHOL, OR ANYMEDICATION.

    ALWAYS STAY ALERT. Do not allow familiarity, gainedfrom frequent use of your grinder, to cause a carelessmistake. ALWAYS REMEMBER that a careless fractionof a second is sufficient to inflict severe injury.

    STAY ALERT AND EXERCISE CONTROL. Watch whatyou are doing and use common sense. Do not operatetool when you are tired. Do not rush.

    SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. Refer to them frequentlyand use them to instruct other users. If you loan someonethis tool, loan them these instructions also.

    WARNING:Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding,drilling, and other construction activities containschemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects orother reproductive harm. Some examples of thesechemicals are:

    lead from lead-based paints,

    crystalline silica from bricks and cement and othermasonry products, and

    arsenic and chromium from chemically-treatedlumber.

    Your risk from these exposures varies, depending onhow often you do this type of work. To reduce yourexposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilatedarea, and work with approved safety equipment, suchas those dust masks that are specially designed to filterout microscopic particles.

    SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

    NEVER reach to pick up a workpiece, a piece of scrap,or anything else that is in or near the grinding path of thewheel.

    AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND POSI-TIONS where a sudden slip could cause your hand tomove into the wheel. ALWAYS make sure you have goodbalance.

    NEVER stand or have any part of your body in line withthe path of the wheel.

    DO NOT USE TOOL IF SWITCH DOES NOT TURN ITON AND OFF. Have defective switches replaced by anauthorized service center.

    DO NOT TURN THE MOTOR SWITCH ON AND OFFRAPIDLY. This could cause the wheel to loosen and couldcreate a hazard. Should this ever occur, stand clear andallow the wheel to come to a complete stop. Disconnectyour grinder from the power supply and securely retightenthe wheel nut.

    WARNING:When servicing use only identical Ryobi replacementparts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard orcause product damage.

    USE ONLY FLANGES furnished with this bench grinder. IF ANY PART OF THIS GRINDER IS MISSING or should

    break, bend, or fail in any way, or should any electricalcomponent fail to perform properly, shut off the powerswitch, remove the machine plug from the power sourceand have damaged, missing, or failed parts replacedbefore resuming operation.

    MAKE SURE THE GRINDER IS SECURELY MOUNTEDas described in the operating instructions before connect-ing the tool to a power supply.

    DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE WHEEL NUT. Excessivetightening can cause the wheel to crack during opera-tion.

    INSPECT GRINDING WHEEL for visible defects. Checkthe wheel for fissures and cracks. Replace defectivewheels prior to use.

    ADJUST distance between wheel and work rest tomaintain 1/16 in. or less separation, readjustment isnecessary as the diameter of the wheel decreases withuse.

    ALWAYS EASE THE WORKPIECE AGAINST THEABRASIVE WHEEL when starting to grind. A harshimpact can break the wheel. Use light pressure whenstarting to grind; too much pressure on a cold wheel cancause the wheel to crack.

    ASSEMBLY

    MOUNTING SAFETY SHIELDSSee Figures 6.Mount the left and right shield rods to the inside of the wheelguards using the clamp brackets, hex bolts (8 mm x 14 mm),and washers (8 mm).

    Use the illustration as a guide to determine which shield rod

    is mounted on the left and which shield rod is mounted on theright of the grinder.

    Once shield rods are firmly in place, slide the shield bracketonto the shield rod. Tighten the carriage bolt leaving it looseenough to allow the safety shield to be raised and loweredeasily.

    WORK RESTSee Figure 7.Before attempting to mount the work rest, remove the hex nutand star washer from the phillips screw. Place the work restover the phillips screw before replacing the hex nut and starwasher. Using the hex bolt (5 mm x 10 mm) and washer(5 mm), secure the work rest against the inside of the wheelguard.

    Before tightening the bolts, adjust the gap between thegrinding wheel and the work rest to a maximum of 1/16 in.(1.6 mm). Tighten securely.

    BASIC OPERATION

    WARNING:Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with sideshields during power tool operation or when blowing dust.If operation is dusty, wear a dust mask.

    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 aschisels, planer blades, scissors, etc., and for removing rustor corrosion.

    WARNING:Never sharpen or grind anything made of aluminum.

    Grinders remove material rapidly so pressure is the key toefficient grinding.

    The proper way to sharpen a tool and avoid overheating is:

    Keep the object in constant motion, moving it at an evenpace. Never force a tool against the grinding wheel. Keep the tool cool by using either a cooling tray or a pan

    of water. The grinding wheel should rotate into the object being

    sharpened.Note : Excessive pressure may damage the tool, cause themotor to overheat, and prematurely wear down the grindingwheel.

    WARNING:Excessive pressure on a cold wheel may cause the wheelto crack.

    The following recommendations will help you sharpenspecific tools:

    TWIST DRILL BITSSee Figure 8.

    Drill bits are best sharpened on a sharpening jig (availableat most hardware stores). Begin on one side of the pointat the existing angle, then twist the bit while maintainingcontact with the grinding surface. Sharpen only the tip.

    BIT SHARPENING

    LAWN MOWER BLADESSee Figure 9 .Lawn mower blades are usually sharpened on only oneedge and dressed up slightly on the other. Perform thissharpening process on both cutting ends of the blade. Aftersharpening, be sure to balance the blade by removingadditional material.

    WARNING:Do not attempt to operate this tool until you have readthoroughly and understand completely all instructions,safety rules, etc. contained in this manual. Failure tocomply can result in accidents involving fire, electricshock, or serious personal injury. Save this operator'smanual and review frequently for continuing safeoperation and instructing others who may use this tool.

    CAUTION:An unbalanced lawn mower blade may cause excessivevibration which will damage the lawn mower.

    This technique requires considerable practice, so take yourtime and make a few dry runs first with the grinder off. Besure to maintain the original cutting edge angle as this isimportant to the efficiency of your bits. One work rest hasa V-groove angled to fit most drill bits.

    WHEEL DRESSERDressing a wheel is done to renew sharpness or to true upthe face of the wheel.Set the work rest of the bench grinder at a slight angle andbrace the wheel dresser against it. Do not make contactwith the grinding wheel until after you have turned on themotor and the wheel is rotating at full speed. Press thedresser slightly against the rotating wheel until you get a

    bite, then move slowly from side to side across the wheel. Asmall bite and many passes is better than a big bite and onepass. Work cautiously, hold the dresser with force on thework rest. Do not use excessive pressure against thegrinding wheel. Proceed slowly until you master thetechnique.
