Test Run

After all preparation steps have been completed, the machine and its safety features must be tested to ensure correct operation. If you discover a problem with the operation of the machine or its safety components, do not operate it further until you have resolved the problem.

Refer to Troubleshooting on Page 34 for solutions to common problems that may occur with surface grinders. If you need additional help, contact our Technical Support at (360) 734-1540.

To test run your machine:

1.Read and follow the safety instructions at the beginning of the manual, take the required safety precautions, and make sure the machine is set up and adjusted properly.

2.Ring test the grinding wheel, and install the wheel onto the spindle.

Refer to Ring Test on Page 25, and

Installing & Removing Grinding Wheels on Page 20 for procedures.

3.Clear away all tools and objects used during assembly and preparation.

4.Connect the machine to the power source.

5.Push the STOP button in, then twist it clockwise so it pops out. When the STOP button pops out, the switch is reset and ready for operation.

6.Verify that the machine is operating correctly by pushing the START button.

When operating correctly, the machine runs smoothly with little or no vibration or rubbing noises.

8.WITHOUT resetting the switch, press the START button. The machine should not start.

If the machine does not start, the STOP button safety feature is working correctly.

If the machine does start (with the stop button pushed in), immediately disconnect power to the machine. The STOP button safety feature is not working correctly. This safety feature must work properly before proceeding with regular operations. Call Tech Support for help.
