the mains before carrying out any inspection or maintenance.

6.1.1. Check that the tool rest on the dry wheel is securely fixed and set at a maximum of

2mm from the grinding stone.

6.1.2. Check that eye shield is in good condition, secure and that you can see through it clearly.

6.1.3. Turn the dry grinding stone by hand and check for any damage. Check they do not

touch the tool rest or guards and are correctly aligned.

If any of the above checks fail, replace, repair, or adjust as necessary before starting

the grinder.
