CHANGING THE GRINDING WHEEL

(Fig. N)

IVi

The Wheel Dresser is to be used on the grinding

wheels. It will remove buildup of material on the grind-

ing wheel, remove imperfections and make the corners

of the grinding wheel square. See Figure M.

DO NOT use the Wheel Dresser on the Wire Wheel.

Make sure the right side tool rest (A) is in the flat

horizontal position as shown and 1/16" away from

the grinding wheel.

Turn "ON" the Bench Grinder. Let the grinding

wheel (C) come up to a steady speed for one

minute.

After the grinding wheel has gotten to a steady

speed, place the Wheel Dresser (B) flat on the Tool

Rest with the serrated wheels facing the grinding

wheel.

Firmly hold on to the handle of the Wheel Dresser.

Move the Wheel Dresser forward until the serrated

wheels make light contact with the grinding wheel.

After contact has been made, slide the Wheel

Dresser side to side across the Tool Rest to dress

the grinding wheel until the edge of the grinding

wheel is square and the surface is clean.

After the operator has completed dressing the

grinding wheel, turn "OFF" the Bench Grinder and

let the grinding wheel come to a complete stop.

Inspect the grinding wheel for any damage!

The grinding wheel may now be slightly smaller in

diameter after dressing. Readjust the tool rests and

spark arrestors to maintain a 1/16" clearance to the

grinding wheel.

Due to normal wear, both wheels will need to be

replaced occasionally. See Figure N.

1. Turn the power switch "OFF" and unplug the power

cord from its power source

2. Rotate the eyeshields to the"UP" position for

access to the tool rests.

Remove the screws (F) holding the Wheel Covers

(E) to the Bench Grinder.

4. Remove the Wheel Covers.

Place a small wooden wedge between the Abrasive

wheel and Tool Rest to prevent the wheels from

rotating.

Remove the right side grinding wheel by turning the

Iocknut in the counterclockwise direction with a

wrench (not included). The left side wheel can be

removed by turning the Iocknut (D) in the clockwise

direction.

Remove the Outer Wheel Flange (C) and then re-

move the abrasive wheel (B) from the arbor shaft (A).

CAUTION; The new abrasive wheel to be put onto the

Bench Grinder must be have a higher R.P.M. rating

than the Bench Grinder. The abrasive wheel must

have a 8" diameter with a 5/8" bore diameter for the

arbor shaft. The label on the side of the abrasive

wheels must stay on, DO NOT remove this label.

Replace the abrasive wheel, outer wheel flange,

and the Iocknut in reverse order from removal.

CAUTION: DO NOT OVER=TIGHTEN the lock nut as

this may damage the abrasive wheel and cause serious

injury to the operator.
