Additional Safety Instructions for Grinders  
1. EYE PROTECTION. Grinding causes small  
particles to become airborne at a high rate  
of speed. ALWAYS wear safety glasses  
when using this machine.  
7. LUNG PROTECTION. Grinding produces  
hazardous dust, which may cause long-  
term respiratory problems if inhaled. Always  
wear a NIOSH approved dust mask or res-  
pirator when grinding.  
2. MOUNTING TO BENCH/STAND. An unse-  
cured grinder may become dangerously  
out of control during operation. Make sure  
grinder is FIRMLY secured to a bench/  
stand before use.  
8. SIDE GRINDING. Grinding on the side of  
wheels can cause them to break and fly  
apart—unless the wheel is rated for side  
grinding.  
3. WHEEL SPEED RATING. Wheels oper-  
ated at a faster speed than rated for may  
break or fly apart. Before mounting a new  
wheel, be sure the wheel RPM rating is  
equal to or higher than the speed of the  
grinder.  
9. TOP GRINDING. Grinding on the top  
of wheels greatly increases the risk of  
workpiece kickback. Always grind on the  
downward part of the wheel.  
10. HAND/WHEEL CONTACT. Grinding  
wheels have the capability of removing  
a lot of skin fast. Keep a firm grip on the  
workpiece and position your hands a safe  
distance away when grinding. Avoid wear-  
ing gloves as they may get caught in the  
grinding wheel and cause even more seri-  
ous entanglement injuries.  
4. WHEEL FLANGES. Only use the flanges  
included with the grinder when mounting  
wheels. Other flanges may not properly  
secure the wheel and cause an accident.  
5. RING TEST. Perform a “ring test” on grind-  
ing wheels before installation to ensure  
that they are safe to use. A wheel that does  
not pass the ring test may break or fly apart  
during operation.  
11. TOOL REST POSITION. If the tool rest is  
too far away from the wheel, the workpiece  
may be pulled down, causing loss of con-  
trol and pulling your hand into the grinding  
wheel. Keep the tool rest within 18" from the  
wheel when operating.  
6. STARTING GRINDER. If a wheel IS dam-  
aged, it will usually fly apart shortly after  
start-up. To protect yourself, always stand  
to the side of the grinder when turning it  
ON, allow it to gain full speed and wait for  
at least 1 minute before standing in front of  
it.  
No list of safety guidelines can be complete.  
Every shop environment is different. Always  
consider safety first, as it applies to your  
individual working conditions. Use this and  
other machinery with caution and respect.  
Failure to do so could result in serious per-  
sonal injury, damage to equipment, or poor  
work results.  
Like all machinery there is potential danger  
when operating this machine. Accidents are  
frequently caused by lack of familiarity or  
failure to pay attention. Use this machine  
with respect and caution to lessen the pos-  
sibility of operator injury. If normal safety  
precautions are overlooked or ignored, seri-  
ous personal injury may occur.

Site Considerations  
Mounting  
The Model H8126 must be mounted to a work-  
bench to avoid accidental tipping. If you intend to  
use the grinder for portable applications, mount it  
to a heavy plywood base (at least 1" thick) that is  
wide enough to prevent tipping or rocking during  
use, then clamp the plywood base to the work-  
bench or table.  
Bench Load  
Refer to the Machine Data Sheet for the weight  
and footprint specifications of your machine.  
Some workbenches may require additional rein-  
forcement to support both the machine and the  
workpiece.  
To mount the grinder:  
Placement Location  
Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of  
material to be processed through each machine,  
and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or  
other machinery when establishing a location for  
your new machine. See Figure 5 for the minimum  
working clearances.  
1. Once you have confirmed that your grinder  
is running properly, mount it to a workbench  
through the holes in the base using the  
dimensions in Figure 6. DO NOT overtighten  
the mounting bolts or you will crack the  
base.

Figure 5. Minimum working clearances.  
Children and visitors may be  
seriously injured if unsuper-  
vised. Lock all entrances to  
the shop when you are away.  
DO NOT allow unsupervised  
children or visitors in your  
shop at any time!

The strongest mounting option is a "Through  
Mount" where holes are drilled all the way through  
the workbench, and hex bolts, washers, and hex  
nuts are used to secure the grinder to the work-  
bench.  
Tool Rest and Eye  
Shield  
The tool rest supports the workpiece during  
grinding. Jigs or accessories may be attached to  
the tool rest to grind the workpiece at complex  
angles.  
 
The eye shield must be installed and positioned  
between the grinding wheel and your face during  
grinding. The eye shield is NOT a substitute for  
safety glasses or a safety face shield. You must  
wear ANSI approved face and eye protection.

SECTION 4: OPERATIONS  
Operation Safety  
Grinding Tips  
The grinder is a safe tool when used properly. In  
addition to the safety instructions in this manual,  
the most important safety consideration is to use  
common sense at all times. What may be okay in  
one situation, can be dangerous in another.  
Damage to your eyes, lungs, and ears could  
result from using this machine without  
proper protective gear. Always wear safety  
glasses, a respirator, and hearing protection  
when operating this machine.  
Here are some tips to keep in mind while  
grinding:  
Make sure all guards are in place.  
Remember that grinding often produces  
sparks. DO NOT allow anyone to stand in  
the path of the sparks.  
DO NOT grind near flammable materials.  
Loose hair and cloth-  
ing could get caught in  
machinery and cause seri-  
ous personal injury. Keep  
loose clothing and long  
hair away from moving  
machinery.  
Maintain proper care of your wheels. Read  
the Wheel Care instructions on Page 16 for  
ideas on how to do this.  
Wear the proper protective clothing. Particles  
flying off of a grinding wheel will be travel-  
ing very fast—prepare for this. Wear safety  
glasses/face shield, a dust mask, earplugs,  
a leather apron, and heavy leather boots.  
Grasp the workpiece firmly and properly  
support it on the tool rest during grinding.  
Maintain even pressure and control of the  
workpiece when grinding.  
DO NOT use this grinder with a liquid cool-  
ing system required for wet grinding wheel  
operations. The electrical system is not  
waterproof. Ignoring this warning can lead  
to electrocution.  
Concentrate on the task at hand. STOP  
grinding if other people are distracting you or  
your mind is on something else.  
NOTICE  
DO NOT grind on the side of the wheel. The  
wheels provided with the Model H8126 are  
not designed for side grinding.  
If you have never used this type of machine  
or equipment before, WE STRONGLY REC-  
OMMEND that you read books, trade maga-  
zines, or get formal training before begin-  
ning any projects. Regardless of the con-  
tent in this section, Grizzly Industrial will  
not be held liable for accidents caused by  
lack of training.

Wheel Care  
Wheel Selection  
Your safety when grinding depends, in large part,  
on the condition of the wheel. A wheel in poor  
condition may break apart during rotation, injuring  
the operator and damaging property.  
The Model H8126 only accepts Type 1 wheels  
with a 12" bore.  
Aluminum oxide and silicon carbide wheels are  
marked in a somewhat uniform manner by all  
major manufacturers. Understanding these mark-  
ings will help you understand the capabilities of  
various wheels. Always refer to the manufactur-  
er’s grinding recommendations when selecting a  
wheel for your project.  
Here are some tips to help you avoid breaking  
the wheel:  
Always transport, store and handle wheels  
with care. Wheels may be damaged if they  
are dropped or if heavy objects are stacked  
on them.  
The basic format for wheel numbering is:  
Select the right grinding wheel for the job.  
DO NOT grind material inappropriate for the  
wheel type.  
Abrasive  
Type  
Bond  
Type  
Prefix  
1
Grit Size Grade  
60  
A
L
V
Select the right wheel for the machine. If a  
grinding wheel rotates faster than its RPM  
rating, it may fly apart.  
The Prefix is the manufacturer’s designation for a  
particular wheel type (eg, Type 1 wheels).  
Mount wheels properly. (See the Wheel  
Replacement instructions on Page 17 for  
guidance.) Never use a wheel with the wrong  
arbor size for the grinder.  
The most common Abrasive Types used are 'A'  
for Aluminum Oxide, 'C' for Silicon Carbide, and  
occasionally 'SG' for Seeded Gel.  
The Grit Size is a number that refers to the size  
of the abrasive grain in the wheel. The lower the  
number, the coarser the wheel. Ten is a very  
coarse wheel for roughing and 220 is usually the  
upper range for fine finish work.  
Do not abuse the wheel by jamming the work  
into the grinding wheel with excessive force.  
Learn how to use the grinder and the grind-  
ing wheels properly. Ask a trusted person  
with experience or consult with your local  
library to learn more.  
Grade is an indication of the hardness of the  
wheel—'A' being the softest and 'Z' being the  
hardest.  
Do not store wheels in damp or wet loca-  
tions.  
Bond Type refers to the type of bonding material  
used to hold the abrasive material. Most general  
purpose wheels will have a 'V' indicating Vitrified  
Clay is used. Vitrified Clay provides high strength  
and good porosity. The other common bond type  
is 'B' for resin where synthetic resins are used.  
These are used to grind cemented carbide and  
ceramic materials.  
Grinding on the side of the wheel may cause  
wheel damage.  
Replace wheels when the diameter becomes  
2" smaller than its original size.  
Note: There may be other numbers inserted that  
have meaning for a particular type of wheel. Refer  
to the manufacturer’s technical data for a com-  
plete explanation.

4. An undamaged wheel will emit a clear metal-  
lic ring or “ping” sound in each of these spots.  
A damaged wheel will respond with a dull  
thud that has no clear tone.  
Wheel Inspection  
Do not assume that a wheel is in sound condition  
just because it is new—often damage can occur  
in shipping, with age, or with exposure to mois-  
ture. Inspect every wheel for damage.  
5. If you determine from the ring test that the  
wheel is damaged, DO NOT use it!  
First, do a Visual Inspection. Look for any  
cracks, chips, nicks or dents in the surface of the  
wheel. If you see any of these, DO NOT use the  
wheel.  
Wheel Dressing  
Depending on the type of grinding you do, the  
grinding wheel may require periodic dressing.  
Second, do a Ring Test, by following Steps 1-5  
below. This test will give you an indication of any  
internal damage that may not be obvious during  
a visual inspection.  
Several different kinds of wheel dressing devices  
are available (see Page 19). Dressing restores  
the abrasive quality of the wheel surface and  
squares up the wheel edge.  
Always be sure to use a wheel that is rated for  
3450 RPM or greater.  
Refer to the instructions that accompany your  
dressing accessory for complete details on how  
to properly dress a wheel.  
To perform a Ring Test:  
1. Make sure the wheel that you test is clean and  
dry; otherwise, you may get false results.  
Wheel Replacement  
2. If size permits, balance the wheel with your  
finger in the hole. If this is not possible, hang  
the wheel in the air with a piece of cord or  
string looped through the hole in the center.  
The wheel guard assembly must be removed in  
order to mount or dismount a grinding wheel.  
3. At the spots shown in Figure 11, gently tap  
the wheel with a light non-metallic device  
such as the handle of a screwdriver or a  
wooden mallet.  
To replace a grinding wheel:  
1. DISCONNECT THE GRINDER FROM  
POWER!  
2. Remove the three Phillips head screws and  
nuts that go through the outer guard, and  
remove the outer guard.

the arbor nut that secures the wheel.  
 
Note: The arbor shaft and nut on the left  
side of the grinder (as you face front) has  
left hand threads; to loosen this nut, turn it  
clockwise.

4. Remove the outer wheel flange and the  
paper disc. Pull the wheel free from the arbor,  
but leave the paper disc and a wheel flange  
on the other side of the wheel.

NEVER assemble a grinding wheel on the  
arbor without paper or fiber discs between  
the wheel and the flange. Omitting the discs  
can put uneven stress on the wheel, causing  
it to crack and possibly fly apart. ALWAYS  
“ring test” a wheel before assembly to make  
certain it has no cracks or flaws.

installation.  
5. Mount the new wheel as shown in Figure  
12. Always make certain there is a paper or  
fiber disc between the wheel flanges and the  
wheel itself. Tighten the arbor nut snugly but  
DO NOT over-tighten. Over-tightening can  
crack the wheel.  
6. Run a new wheel for at least one minute  
while standing clear of the line of rotation. If a  
wheel does have defects it will generally fail  
as soon as it gets up to full speed.
