Modular Transfer System Belt Grinder
Operation
Grinding the belts:
1. Once the belts have been properly
positioned, push down on the clamping
lever to lock them in place. Make sure
the belts are held securely.
2. Make sure that the power switch is in
the OFF position, then plug the belt
grinder cord into a 3-prong grounded
outlet.
3. Perform a final visual check to make
sure that all guards are in place and
that the belts are properly aligned and
securely clamped in place.
4. Turn ON the motor using the switch.
5. Turn the crank handle counterclockwise
to feed the belts against the grinding
drum. Once the belts contact the grind-
ing drum, maintain a slow and steady
pace while turning the hand crank. It
may be necessary to slow down as
you approach the ends of the belts,
as the grinder removes more material
from the belts.
CAUTION!
Do NOT try to force
the feed rate too quickly! Feeding the
belt too quickly may overheat or dam-
age the belt, resulting in an unusable
bevel.
6. Once the belt is beveled, turn the
power switch to OFF and unplug the
grinder. Raise the belt clamp handle
and remove the belts. Make sure the
ends are properly feathered and the
beveled sides are free of burrs, as
shown in the inset. Remove any burrs
from the sides by lightly sanding with
80 grit sandpaper. DO NOT TRIM
FEATHERED ENDS OF BELT
IMPORTANT:
Protect the
beveled surfaces of the belts from oil,
dust, moisture, fingerprints, etc. Any
contamination could result in a defec-
tive weld and create a safety hazard.
The belts are now ready for welding. Refer
to the belt welding section of the TS1
or TSplus Basic Equipment manual for
instructions.
