Powering Up a Bench Grinder

Video Transcript

"Hi, my name is Danny and I'm from Tampa, Florida and on behalf of Expert Village, I am going to show you how to use and maintain a bench grinder. Okay I am going to talk about powering up the bench grinders. You want to make sure that the cable is fine, no breaks or tears in it and these plug into your standard 110 outlet which means you can plug it in pretty much anywhere in your house. Before you plug it up, you want to make sure these things are spinning freely; that's just the wire wheel. You want to make sure that they spin freely and they are not stuck. Same as this one. You want to make sure that they are on a solid surface and shake them a little bit to make sure they are not going to vibrate off of the table. So you want to plug them up and you want to make sure the wires are out of the way. You have these guards, you can put them down. Make sure your safety glasses are on. And they sound good and now you can start grinding, buffing or cleaning with your bench grinder. "
