Lubrication
The bearings on the T32002 are permanently
sealed and require no lubrication.
Grinding Wheels
The grinding wheel should be inspected before
every use. Use the ring test method noted in
Inspecting Grinding Wheel on Page 21 to verify
the structural integrity. Take care in storing grind-
ing wheels to keep them free from potential dam-
age by being dropped or having other items drop
on them.
Replace the wheel when the tool rest has no more
adjustment and the gap has exceeded the safe
limit.
Wheel Dressing
Depending on the type of grinding you do, the
grinding wheel may require periodic dressing.
Several different kinds of wheel dressing devices
are available. Dressing restores the abrasive
quality of the wheel surface and squares up the
wheel edge.
Refer to the instructions that accompany your
dressing accessory for complete details on how
to properly dress a wheel.
See available wheel and diamond dressers on
Page 27.
