Not sure what was happening when the previous reply was created, but the owners manual is part number 211260001 $7.99 at SearsPartsDirect.com

That said, I'm staring at my own copy of the the owners manual and I can't really see why you would want to pay for one. The only really useful information is the parts diagram which is online at SearsPartsDirect.com. The rest is generic grinder information (support workpiece, select proper wheel, etc.) and CYA (always wear gloves and eye protection, don't remopve safety guards, don't use damaged wheels, don't stick your finger in the light socket, don't cross the steet in the middle of the block, etc.)

Mike, just found your request and went to Sears and the manual is no longer available either to download or buy. Also more than half the parts are no longer available for the grinder.

No control of speed on bench grinder,need schematic

Unless the motor is a brush type universal unit, there is commonly no way to change the speed of an induction motor. There are AC motor speed control units available, but cost more than the grinder as they change the frequency as well as the voltage. There are speed controllable grinders available that use brushes so that simple electronics can control speed. Hope this helps!

I have a Craftsman Commercial 1/2 HP Bench grinder. When I turn it on It just hums. It doesn't turn. Can you tell me what is wrong and which part I need to change? Thank you, Marlan PS: I have misplaced...

The motor has a high spot on the armature causing the motor to stop rotating. The humming noise is the fields full of current which is making the armature to react to make this noise. For the money purchase a new bench grinder which is an easier fix than dumping money into your old one here

I need a replacement switch for a craftsman 1/2 HP bench grinder model#397.19441. I have no owners manual or parts list. This grinder is several years old.

this switch is no longer available from Sears, so I suggest making a wiring drawing and taking the switch to a local electrical supply house and try matching it up with a replacement. It seems to be a simple on/off type switch and I would think that you should have no problem. Let me know if you do and give me the information on the switch and I will try some other sites I know.
