Assembly of Pedestal, Unpacking, Mounting Procedure

Small Diameter Contact Wheels

Small diameter contact wheels are useful for grinding or contouring difficult, hard to reach areas (refer to Figure 15). The small diameter contact wheels are available in several sizes. Refer to Figure 14 for a listing of small diameter contact wheels.

Assembly of Pedestal

Unpacking

The grinding machine pedestal is shipped separately from the grinding machine. Transport the shipping containers to the installation site before unpacking.

Unpack the pedestal and grinding machine. Locate and open the plastic bag containing four 5/16-18 socket head cap screws. Verify that that there are two screws 1-inch long and two screws 1-3/4 inches long (Figure 16, View A).

Securing the Pedestal

WARNING: BOLTING THE PEDESTAL TO THE FLOOR IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED. THE PEDESTAL IS BOLTED TO THE FLOOR TO ELIMINATE THE POSSIBILITY OF TIP-OVER WHILE THE MACHINE IS BEING OPERATED. FAILURE TO DO SO CAN RESULT IN INJURY TO THE OPERATOR AND/OR OTHER NEARBY PERSONNEL.

The pedestal has four mounting holes in its base. Use these mounting holes to secure the pedestal to the floor before installing the grinder. Shims should be used to level the pedestal before the attaching bolts are tightened.

Assembly

WARNING: THE MACHINE MOUNTING PLATE IS NOT CENTERED ON THE LEG OF THE PEDES- TAL. THIS OFFSET EVENLY DISTRIBUTES THE WEIGHT OF THE GRINDING MACHINE.

Diameter Contact Wheel

MAKE SURE THE GRINDING MACHINE IS CORRECTLY POSITIONED AND SECURED TO THE PEDESTAL BEFORE LEAVING THE MACHINE UNATTENDED. FAILURE TO COR- RECTLY POSITION AND SECURE THE MA- CHINE COULD RESULT IN THE MACHINE TIPPING OVER, CAUSING INJURY TO PER- SONNEL.

There are four mounting holes in the mounting plate on the pedestal. The holes on the motor side of the machine are approximately 20 inches apart. The holes on the belt-guard side of the machine are located approximately ½-inch from the corners of the plate. When correctly installed, all four screw holes in the machine base plate and belt guard will align with the holes in the mounting plate of the pedestal.

Mounting Procedure

A.Using two people or a hoisting device, lift the grind- ing machine and set it on the pedestal. Align all four screw holes in the machine base plate and belt guard with the holes in the mounting plate of the pedestal (Figure 16, View B).

B.Open the grinding belt guard door (Figure 16, View C). Install two 5/16-18 x 1-inch long screws in the base of the grinding belt guard. Install screws finger-tight.

C.Install the two 5/16-18 x 1-3/4-inch long screws in the screw holes on the motor side of the machine base (Figure 16, View D). Tighten all four screws.
