Troubleshooting

Grinder not turning on

Check that the power cord is securely plugged into a working 110V outlet. Ensure the power switch is in the 'on' position. Verify that restart protection has not been triggered by a power interruption.

Reduced grinding power or speed

Ensure the accessory is not dull or damaged. Check for blockages in the air vents. Verify that the speed setting is appropriate for the material and task. The motor may be overheating; allow it to cool down.

Accessory change is difficult

Make sure the spindle lock is fully engaged. Ensure the collet nut is clean and free of debris. If the accessory is stuck, try gently tapping the collet nut with a rubber mallet while holding the spindle lock.
