Wheel Inspection

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bench Load

Refer to the Machine Data Sheet on Page 7 for the weight and size specifications of your machine. Some workbenches may require additional reinforcement to support both the machine and the workpiece.

Placement Location

See Figure 3 for the minimum working clearances. Remember that the Model T10097 Wet Grinder has no specific front or back side and must be repositioned depending on the desired grinding/sharp- ening/honing action.

Children and visitors may be seriously injured if unsupervised. Lock all entrances to the shop when you are away. DO NOT allow unsupervised children or visitors in your shop at any time!

Do not assume that a wheel is in sound condition just because it is new—often damage can occur in shipping, with age, or with prolonged exposure to moisture. Inspect every wheel for damage.

First, do a Visual Inspection. Look for any cracks, chips, nicks or dents in the surface of the wheel. If you see any of these, DO NOT use the wheel.

Second, do a Ring Test. This test will give you an indication of any internal damage that may not be obvious during a visual inspection.

To perform a Ring Test:

1.Make sure the wheel that you test is clean and dry; otherwise, you may get false results.

2.If size permits, hang the wheel in the air with a piece of cord or string looped through the hole in the center. If this is not possible, balance the wheel with your finger in the hole.

3.At the spots shown in Figure 4, gently tap the wheel with a light non-metallic device such as the handle of a screw- driver or a wooden mallet.
