MACHINE OPERATION

Belt Installation /Change

Step 1

Remove Belt Guard by grasping Door Latch (97760)

and rotate quarter turn counter-clockwise.

Step 2

Pull the belt release lever rearward until distinctive

"click" or catch is felt indicating the engagement of

cam mechanism into machined groove.

Step 3

Important: With firm rearward hold on release lever

handle, remove belt with left hand.

Step 4

Install new belt in same manner.

Step 5

With hand and fingers free from moving parts, push

release lever forward until belt becomes taught.

Replace belt guard and turn door latch quarter turn clockwise until "click" is heard.

Belt Tracking

Belt tracking is accomplished by turning the Tracking Knob (95314). Turning clockwise moves belt to the right.

Turning counter-clockwise moves belt to the left.

Coolant Nozzle

The coolant nozzle can be extended or retracted (if dia. allows) for good placement of coolant flow by loosening

Hex Screw (95179). Retighten once placement is achieved. The coolant nozzle has an adjustable flow valve

which connects to 1/4" diameter flexible nylon tubing.

Drip Pan

The drip pan is hinged on a #10 eye screw and can be tilted fore and aft to direct coolant toward lathe bed or

to a drain hose. A 1/4 NPT port is provided at each end for this purpose.

Catch Tray Assembly

Each machine comes equipped with an adjustable catch tray which positions underneath the contact wheel.

Its purpose is to collect the major portion of grind dust/swarf and direct it away from the lathe ways. It should

be placed within 1/8" of workpiece. Position can be changed by loosening Knob (97773). When grinding into

a shoulder, it will be necessary to remove tray entirely.

MAINTENANCE

The grinders described in this manual have been designed to be maintenance-free. All bearings and moving

parts are sealed and lubricated for life. Electric motor maintenance should be performed as recommended by

the motor manufacturer.

Good housekeeping is essential to insuring long life of any machine tool. By keeping the machine clean and

visually inspected for any wear, the machine will provide many years of quality service.

Periodically inspect the contact wheels, idler rolls and drive pulley for any signs of wear. Repairing or replacing

worn parts early enough will prevent other parts from becoming damaged.
