User questions & answers

Question:	The grinding wheel? 8"x 3/4"? I need 8"x1" wideth does anyone know
Answer:	The DW758 8'' Bench Grinder comes with and is used with 1'' wheels.
Question:	Is the tool rest adjustable to any angle
Answer:	yes
Question:	What is the size of the retaining nut that secures the grinding wheels on this unit? 1" is too small. 1-1/16" too big. Is it metric
Answer:	1 1/16 socket will work if you don’t have 26mm
Question:	I'm confused by the claim this grinder 3/4 horse power. A 4.4 amp,120vac induction motor is 1/6 hp per various engineering charts and 3/4 hp 13 amps
Answer:	Nameplate says 120 volts 4.2 amps when multiplied, it equals 504 watts. One HP is equal to 746 watts by definition. If it was 100% efficient, which is not possible by the Laws of Physics, it would be 504 divided by 746 or .676 HP. Since most motors are only 90% efficient, that would be .676 times .9 = .608 HP. That is between 1/2 and 5/8 HP. Typical of inflated claims by manufacturers. --Master Electrician--

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the thickness of the wires? Needing 1 1/2 or
Answer:	It will if it has a adjustable chuck like a drill. But also dont for get to wear safety gear while using them that way. Preferably a face shield and gloves. Some times wires fly loose and stick you in flight.
Question:	Anybody knows how to measure a wire wheel I need 8"x5/8"x
Answer:	If the bumpy concrete is on the cast steel, the brush can work, but the lifetime of the wire will vary with the hardness of the concrete. If it is on the concrete, I don't recommend it.
Question:	Are different wire material like steel, copper, stainless available
Answer:	I used two of these to take paint off metal patio furniture and they worked great. I didn't try it on cement. They are strong and fit my drill very well.
Question:	On product dimension, what is being measured? 8.4 x 1.2 x 9.5 What are these dimensions
Answer:	The biggest problem with this and all brushes that thread onto a 5/8 arbor is that most 15/16ths wrenches are too thick to slip in around the nut. I solved the problem by cutting a piece of 1/4" thick 1-1/2" steel bar, cutting a 15/16" slot and welding it to the end of my spanner wrench to my angle grinder. Works great.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the max. RPM
Answer:	You can do a test from the app. But I would recommend performing a test using canned smoke also to truly test the functionality. When I did that, I never received push notifications to my phone like I was supposed to.
Question:	what is shaft diam
Answer:	This would work will for that purpose because it responds quickly. The home CO meters have a long response delay. This one responds in less than a minute. Six months after first use it alerts you to calibrate. You can ignore that if you are only after a reasonable level of alarm. I think it will continue to work fairly accurately for a couple of years. It can be sent back for calibration for around $35. However, a normal home CO meter would be less costly and work fairly well, not need calibraion, and last about 10 years. You can also get a combination smoke and CO detector which would provide additional alert capability.
Question:	Which is more coarse, the 36 or 60 grit wheel
Answer:	I don't know the difference. I do consider this unit to be well built, accurate and has the functions I needed. It give running ppm levels and peak level. Perfect for taking fireplace readings and even exhaust levels.

User questions & answers

Question:	I've heard this wheel is remarkably wide - will it fit the DW758 without removing the shroud
Answer:	Yes, You can hold the detector in your hand near the stack or I recommend Buying the kit with the pump. The purpose of the pump is for these sort of things.
Question:	Some wire wheels are too thin in the center, where the arbor is, in order for the flange discs to tighten against it tightly. About how thick is it
Answer:	The life span is approximately 5 years more. We customers that still have their unit from 2012, send them to us for calibration.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this a variable speed or single speed
Answer:	This is a single speed motor, smooth and powerful
Question:	What is shaft size
Answer:	The bench grinder has a 5/8" shaft diameter.
Question:	What is the RPM of this grinder
Answer:	The listed RPM is 3600 @ 60hz 11 amp @ 115V, 5.5 amp @ 230V should you change the setup over to 230V, it comes setup for 115 operation, easy to follow their manual to change the wiring setup to 230. I was going to but didn't bother because this grinder is a beast @ the 115V. I use it with a VanSant MultiTool Belt grinder attachment for steel & other metal fabrication, finishing edges, deburring, and some shaping. Also use the 60 grit on the other side of the grinder for assorted grinder tasks. It comes up to speed almost immediately and so far has not bogged down on anything I've done wit it. Great machine so far not a complaint..! This unit is a Made in Taiwan machine vs a mainland republic of China unit. Hope this helps!
Question:	How does this one compare to Jets other grinder, model 577102 which spec wise seems identical except the color
Answer:	This one is built to a much higher standard. 1) The wheel flanges on this grinder are large and machined, 577102 has cheap, smaller, stamped steel flanges. What does that mean? The wheels will always run truer on this grinder. 2) The motor on this grinder is another league compared to 577102, equal written specs don't always mean equal performance or durability. This Grinder while pre-wired to run off 120 volts, can also be set up to run off 220 volts. That means longer motor life and easier starting when operating it at 220 volts. The 577102 is strictly 120 volt,. 3) There is the exhaust ports, the ones on this one exit in the back/side toward the center of the grinder to a "T" the 577102 has an oval exit behind each wheel. That means this one is allot easier to hook up to dust collection equipment the longer port length also lessons sparks catching anything on fire. You can look at the two manuals on Jet's website and it spells things out with pics too. 4) Lastly is the switch this grinder has a more expensive removable lock out, 577102 has a cheap toggle switch. This grinder is also OSHA approved for industry where 577102 is not, most likely because of the power switch, OSHA's picky about power switches, they must be large, red and easy to access and lock out.

User questions & answers

Question:	I am confused - it says it is 115 volts but it also says it is battery powered. Can you enlighten me? Thanks
Answer:	No battery just a plug in for 115 volts.. maybe there is another model that is battery powered this one isn't. I also wouldn't get one that is battery powered. To run a grinder you need all the power you can get and a grinder this size wouldn't last very long with a battery.
Question:	Do the wheels spin both directions
Answer:	No. Like all grinding wheels I've ever seen, these revolve in a downward direction in the front.
Question:	What is the grit of the stone
Answer:	36 grit
Question:	Is the stand included
Answer:	No, the stand is not included.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this variable speed
Answer:	Rom my experience it is either on or off. If you want variable speed, spend more money!
Question:	I embarrassed I don’t know this, but how do you tighten the arbor bolts? It seems like one loosens the other and there’s no good way to tighten it
Answer:	Don't be embarrassed - one side of the unit has a thread that is the REVERSE of the other. From memory it is the left hand side as you face the unit and so to tighten it you turn the nut as if you were loosening it. The reason is so the spinning motion of the motor doesn't allow the wheel to come loose. Counterintuitive but it works - enjoy!
Question:	How many watts does this take to run
Answer:	The grinder is rated at 6.25 amps, 10 amps would work fine, breakers are rated in amps, not watts...light bulbs are rated in watts.
Question:	How does this model compare to Jets other grinder, model 578008 which seems identical in specs
Answer:	This grinder is a consumer grade while model 578008 is industrial grade. This has small stamped steel wheel flanges while the 578008 has machined wheel flanges. 578008's wheels will always run truer. Published motor specs can be deceiving, this grinder motor is a consumer grade 120 volt motor, the 578008 is an industrial grade motor that is capable of running on either 120 or 220 volts. Run on 220, the motor starts easier and lasts longer. Dust collection equipment is easier to hook up on the 578008's single exhaust exit vs this ones dual oval exits and 578008 is OSHA compliant with an OSHA approved switch. For Me, for the little money more they ask for the 578008 it's a no-brainier go with their industrial grinder model 578008 watch for discounts on the internet, I just picked up the 578008 for 220.00, no tax and free shipping. With tax amazon wanted 277.00
