Finally, a grinder designed with more than one purpose. This new 6-inch thin line grinder from Delta incorporates two different wheels, one for sharpening tools, chisels and bits and the other for general purpose grinding. The electronic variable speed of 2,000 to 3,450 rpm allows for slower speeds when using the white sharpening stone for less heat build-up, fewer sparks and a more controlled edge. When rough grinding is needed, the standard grinding wheel can be used at the maximum speed for fast removal. The on-board diamond dresser can used to extend the white sharpening wheel by "truing" up the edge to ensure a constant flat surface. Both tool rests are cast-iron and can articulate or be removed for larger grinding applications. The white sharpening stone tool rest has a drill bit rest milled into the surface to ensure the correct angle is kept on the tip at all times while sharpening. Both wheels are driven by a powerful 2 amp induction motor that is mounted on a large cast-iron base for stability incorporates the safety switch and variable speed dial both up front for easy access. A 40-watt work lamp with an independent switch has a flexible neck, which can be positioned to light either grinding wheel while maintaining a safe distance from the grinding surface. Full-sized clear safety shields have thumb screws for easy adjustment round this product out for all your grinding needs, and with the ability to slow the speed down to 2,000 rpm this unit will work great with the optional Delta 23-005 6-inch buffing wheel!
