5.4 Securing the grinder
To prevent the grinder from moving during
operation, it should be securely mounted to a work
surface or grinder stand. Fasteners for mounting are
not included with the grinder.
1. Align the mounting holes on grinder with
predrilled holes in a bench or grinder stand.
Figure 4-1 shows hole centers for mounting.
2. Insert 3/8-in. (or 10mm) bolts through the holes
and tighten, using washers and nuts.
An optional pedestal stand (not included) is
available from JET for your grinder. See sect. 11.0.
5.5 Assembling eye shield brackets
to spark guards
Refer to Figure 5-2.
Note: Spark guards (A/C) and eye shield brackets
(D/F) are marked L for left side assembly and R for
right side assembly.
1. Assemble left spark guard and eye shield
bracket using Figure 5-2 as a guide. Make sure
spark guard and bracket are marked L.
2. Assemble right side components in similar
manner.

5.6 Installing spark guard/bracket
Refer to Figure 5-3.
1. Install left spark guard and mounting bracket
assembly to left wheel housing with two 1/4" x
3/8” hex cap screws (L) and two 1/4" flat
washers (M).
2. The spark guard (A
1
) should be adjusted to
within 1/16" of the grinding wheel surface or
other accessory being used. As the wheel
wears down, the spark guard must be re-
adjusted to maintain this 1/16" distance.
3. Install right spark guard and mounting bracket
in similar manner.
5.7 Eye shield
Refer to Figure 5-3.
The eye shields are identical and will fit on either
side of grinder.
Insert two 3/16 x 3/8 pan head screws (K) through
bracket, eye shield (R), and plate (G) which contains
threaded mounting holes. Tighten screws.
5.8 Tool rest
Refer to Figure 5-3.
There is a left and a right tool rest. Refer to Figure
5-3 to ensure proper orientation.
1. Install left tool rest (O) by inserting two 5/16 x
3/4 hex cap screws (H) through two 5/16 flat
washers (J), and tool rest, into wheel housing.
2. The tool rest should be adjusted to within 1/16"
of the grinding wheel or other accessories being
used. As the wheel wears down, the tool rest
must be readjusted to maintain a maximum
1/16" clearance.
3. Assemble right tool rest in similar manner.
