Table and Handwheel Guard, Handwheel Handles

Table and Handwheel		Guard

Wipe the V-grooves of the table and the saddle down with way oil (Mobil Vactra #2 or equivalent). The table rests by its own weight on the ways, and is oiled by the lubrication system. Set the sliding table in position on the saddle. Make sure the gear on the underside of the table engages with the gear on the handwheel shaft.

Thread the three spokes of the handwheel onto the hub, and tighten the jam nuts. Turn the hand- wheel back and forth to make sure the table moves freely.

The table dogs should be in position to stop the left and right movement of the table. Test these to make sure the travel is limited so there is no chance of moving the table too far in one direc- tion. See Figure 4.

Figure 4. Table dogs limit table travel.

Attach the Guard to the left hand side of the table using the socket head cap screws provided. This guard helps to contain debris coming off the rotating wheel during the grinding operation.

Handwheel Handles

There are two handwheels which control cross feed and vertical movement. The handles for these handwheels need to be threaded in the hole in the outer edge of the wheel face.
