SURFACE GRINDING WITH GRINDING WHEELS Using Type 27 Wheels:
1.Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool to the work surface.
2.Apply minimum pressure to the work surface, allowing the tool to operate at high speed. Grinding rate is greatest when the tool operates at high speed.
3. Maintain a 20˚ to 30˚ angle between the tool and work surface.
4. Continuously move the tool in a |
|
forward and back motion to avoid | |
creating gouges in the work surface. |
|
5.Remove the tool from work surface before turning tool off. Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying it down.
