A bench grinder is a machine that uses an abrasive wheel to buff, polish, file, grind or sharpen metal tools and other objects. The bench grinder work rest is an important part of any grinder setup. The adjustable work rest should be kept adjusted to a maximum distance of 1/8-inch from the grinding wheel. This prevents the work from being jammed between the wheel and the work rest, which is a hazard that could potentially cause wheel breakage or pinch point injuries for the user.
In Episode 27 of the OSHA Oops Podcast, safety experts Michael and Rick discuss one company who had a work rest installed on their grinder with too big of a gap, and how much they paid for a non-injury-related citation as a result.
