2. Assemble left tool rest assembly (D) Fig. 4, to the |
inside of left wheel guard (E), and fasten with two 5/16- |
18x5/8" screws (F) and 5/16" flat washers (G) as shown. |
3. Assemble right tool rest assembly to the inside of |
right wheel guard and fasten with two |
head screws and 5/16" flat washers in the same manner. |
4. Each tool rest assembly (D) Fig. 4, is adjustable so it |
can be positioned slightly below the centerline of the |
wheel and as close to the grinding wheel as possible, |
giving maximum support to the piece that is being |
ground. Always maintain a distance of 1/8" or less |
between the grinding wheel and the inside edge of the |
tool rest. As the wheels wear down, the tool rest should |
be adjusted accordingly. When the tool rest is positioned |
correctly, tighten hardware (C) and (F). Freehand |
grinding without the use of a tool rest should always be |
done on the lower quarter of the wheel. |
