Before Using
Before using any tool, any part that appears damaged should be carefully checked to
determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function.
Make sure all Nuts and Bolts are tight.
Use only Bench Grinders that are fully compatible with the Bench Grinder Pedestal Stand. The Bench Grinder
Pedestal Stand fits most Harbor Freight Tool Bench Grinders, but you should always check for sure before using.
Use of the Pedestal Stand is for use with bench grinders only.
Assembly
Your Pedestal Stand will require assembly prior to use. It is important that you read the entire manual to
become familiar with the unit BEFORE you set up the Stand. Before assembling your Stand, be sure that
you have all parts described in the Parts List and Parts Diagram on the last pages of this manual.
Set out all parts on a clear work surface prior to assembly.
Warning:
Use only bench grinders that are fully compatible with the Bench Grinder Pedestal
Stand. Using bench grinders which do not fit this stand may result in harm or serious
injury to the operator. The Bench Grinder Pedestal Stand fits most Harbor Freight
Tool Bench Grinders, but you should always check for sure before using.
Use the Pedestal Stand for bench grinders only.
Step 1)
Mount the Base (3) to a heavy-duty block of wood which is larger than the Pedestal Stand
Base, or into cement for safety and stability. A rubber mat should be placed between
the Base (#3) and the mounting surface to reduce vibration. The Mounting Holes on
the Base (3) are 3/8” in diameter. Insert appropriate screws (not included) through the
Base (3) and into a flat and secure surface. The mounting surface must be able to
support the weight of the Stand as well as the Grinder and work pieces during use.
Step 2)
Step 3)
Insert the Column (#2) into the hole in the Base (3). Insert a Bolt (4) into each
hole in the Base (3) and tighten them firmly against the Column (2).
Slide the Work Table (1) into place on top of the Column (2). Thread one Bolt (4) through
each hole in the WorkTable. Tighten the Bolts (4) until they are firmly against the Column.
Step 4)
Step 5)
Make certain that all Bolts (4) are tightly in place and that the Stand is secure.
Secure the bench grinder to the Work Table (#1) with six appropriate
size bolts, washers and nuts (not included).
Step 6)
Make sure that the Pedestal Stand and the bench grinder are secure before using.
