2. Cut down each side of the section, then score across the bottom of

the inside. Work the piece back and forth to break it across the

bottom.

3. You may want to dress the new edges with the knife, and the plastic

cuts easily for this.

4. Once this portion has been removed, the hood will slide further from

the motor, allowing more room for laps on the end of the motor shaft.

CAUTION: The plastic hoods and pans are designed for use ONLY with

diamond grinding wheels. Do not ever use silicon carbide or aluminum

oxide wheels on the Genie.

Cab Rest

The odd shaped plastic cab rest has two main purposes, to act as

a steady rest for the hands while grinding and polishing a stone, and to

provide an easy, accurate way to grind the bezel on cabochons.

The cab rest can be set in the pan in any position that enables you

to steady your hands while grinding and polishing. Usually it will be laid

flat in the pan.

To grind a uniform bezel on your stones, set the cab rest upright,

with the down slope towards you and the upper end close to the

grinding wheel. Turn your cab topside down, place on top of cab rest,

and proceed to grind the edge. The slope of the cab rest is at an angle

that will give you a uniform 12-½ degree bezel.

Spra-Mist Cooling System

Description:

The Spra-Mist coolant system utilizes a piston type air pump to

operate two geysers that provide a fine mist to the underside of the

grinding and polishing wheels. The pump is located on the left hand

side of the machine, under the hood. Air from the pump is supplied

through plastic tubing to the two geysers.

The Spra-Mist pump is relatively trouble free because of its unique

design. No water flows through the pump itself, so it cannot be

damaged or clogged by rock dust or grit. Regular oiling of the leathers

and bearings will generally keep the pump operating at maximum

efficiency.

Operation:

1. The pump automatically begins to operate when the motor is turned

on. It will not operate if the left hand wheel adaptor is not mounted

on the shaft as the wheel adaptor holds the motor shaft pulley in

place

The geysers should be placed in the water pan with the large hole

down, and set towards the rear of the wheels to avoid excess water

splash.

Remember to move the geyser from wheel to wheel as you

work.

About two cupfuls of water should be placed in each pan, or

enough to reach approximately one third the way up the side of the

geyser.

By attaching the white plastic base to the brass geyser, the geyser

sits at an angle that will provide a spray of water to either "No-Hole"

metal laps or Nova discs attached to the right hand side of your

Genie, or laps having a ½" center hole attached to the left hand

side of your Genie. The plastic base should be removed after the

lapping process is complete. If left on, it may not properly spray the

underside of the wheels. The outside plate of the hood, on the side

to be used, must be removed by unscrewing the attaching screws.

Turn the water pan 90 degrees so that its long dimension is parallel

to the shaft so that the geyser with base can be set to provide water

to the lap or Nova Disc. (The geyser spray should not be used on

canvas polishing pads with diamond compound as it will wash away

the compound. Use a silicon lubricant such as Gem-Lube instead.)

5. Occasionally a geyser will become plugged from the mineral

content in the water. This usually can be corrected by boiling the

geyser in a solution of vinegar and water. Or if plugged by a small

piece of grit, use a needle or paper clip to remove the obstruction.

A few drops of Water Aid in the pan will improve the cutting ability

of the Galaxy metal-bond diamond grinding wheels. Avoid excess

Water Aid as it can cause excessive foam in the pan.
