2. Adjustments need to be made when the grinder is unplugged & stopped. Adjust tool rests 1/8” from the wheels and slightly below center line of the wheels and spark or shatter guards (at the top of the wheel housing guards) 1/2” away from the wheels. Re-adjust these as the wheels wear down to a smaller diameter.<br>
