ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS (Continued)

LOCATE AND LEVEL THE GRINDER

Set the Grinder on a level concrete floor, on a single
uncracked slab of concrete.
If the unit must be located near a wall, allow adequate
space for operating and servicing. Refer to FIG. 3 for
recommended and alternate locations near a wall.
Place a level on the front carriage rail near the center of
the machine and check the level from left to right. See
FIG. 4A. Adjust the leveling feet until the machine is level.
Place the level across the front and rear carriage rails near
the left end of the machine. See FIG. 4B. Adjust the two
leveling feet on the left end until the rear rail (the one
closest to the coolant tray) is slightly lower than the front
rail--so any coolant on the carriage, main base, or optional
bellows will drain back into the coolant tray.
Place the level across the front and rear carriage rails near
the right end of the carriage bed. Level the right end in
the same way as the left end. For grinding accuracy, the
two ends must have the identical backward slant within +/-
.01" [.25 mm] so the frame is not twisted.
Recheck the level in both directions. When satisfactory,
tighten the hex jam nuts on the leveling feet securely
against the nuts welded to the bottom of the base. See
FIG. 2. Don't turn the leveling feet when tightening.
Again recheck the level after the nuts are firmly tightened.
FOR GRINDING ACCURACY, THE MACHINE
DOES NOT HAVE TO BE PERFECTLY LEVEL.
HOWEVER, IT IS CRITICAL THAT FRONT-TO-
BACK LEVELING BE IDENTICAL AT BOTH
ENDS OF THE MACHINE.
INSTALL THE SPINNING HANDLES
Install the spinning handle on the horizontal handwheels.
See FIG. 5. Handle parts are packed in an envelope
taped to the wheel.
