OPERATION

OPERATIONAL CONTROLS AND ADJUSTMENTS

1. The on/off switch (A) Fig. 11 is located on the front

of the grinder. To turn the machine “ON”, move the

switch up to the “ON” position.

2. To turn the machine “OFF”, move the switch (A)

down to the “OFF” position.

Make sure that the switch is in the “OFF”

position before plugging in the power

cord. In the event of a power failure,

move the switch to the “OFF” position.

An accidental start-up can cause injury.

STARTING AND STOPPING THE MACHINE

IMPORTANT: When the machine is not in use, the switch

should be locked in the “OFF” position to prevent

unauthorized use, using a padlock with a 3/16" diameter

shackle through the two holes in the switch plate.

WATER LEVEL

The 10" grinding wheel requires water. Keep the water level in the base (A) Fig. 12 sufficient to cover at least 1" of the lower

portion of the grinding wheel. Add water as needed during the grinding operation.Remove the drain plug (B) Fig. 13 to drain

the water from the base.

GRINDING WHEELS

For best grinding results and to maintain good balance, always keep the wheels properly dressed. Do not force work against

a cold wheel but use light pressure until the wheel becomes warm. It is earnestly recommended that only balanced wheels

be used. The use of balanced wheels adds years to the life of the bearings in any grinder, and by eliminating the most

common source of vibration, more accurate work is accomplished.Your dealer can order special wheels, given the size,

thickness, arbor diameter and grade, from any reliable grinding wheel company, but be sure that they are balanced for perfect

results and rated for the proper speed or higher.

Use a suitable silicon carbide stick-type dresser (Fig. 14).

Move the dresser forward until it touches the high point of

the face of the wheel. Dress the wheel by moving the

dresser back and forth. Repeat this operation until the face

of the wheel is clean and the corners are square.
