Setting Up Flywheel - Van Norman FG5000 Instruction Manual And Parts List

1. To load the flywheel, remove the front coolant shroud door, raise the headlock handle and
swing the grinding head into the far right hand corner of the shroud, flipping the shroud
cover out of the way (Figure 18).
2. A cross section diagram of the general method for setting up a flywheel for grinding is
shown in (Figure 19). Detailed instructions are outlined below. The accuracy of the ground
flywheel will depend to a large extent on the accuracy and condition of the surface that the
flywheel is mounted on. A flywheel cannot be expected to run true if it was ground on a
surface that was not parallel to the crankshaft mounting surface. Whenever a flywheel is
ground while mounted on a surface other than the crankshaft mounting surface, careful
inspection to assure parallelism of the two surfaces should be done.
