Grinding
Essentially a double ended motor, with a mounting base, the motor
machine
flanges mount the wheel guards. The motor base contains the On/Off
NVR switch.
Wheel guards
Two formed metal guards that enclose the grinding wheels. They
are each formed in three parts. The inner part is mounted onto the
motor flange, The stone cover is 'sprung' into the lip of the inner part
and the outer part is located on it. The whole assembly is bolted
together. There are various 'hard point locations' that accept the fixing
bolts that secure the attachments of the machine.
Tool rests
Formed metal plates that bolt onto a hard point on the inside cover of
the wheel guard. There is an elongated slot in the rest which gives
adjustment along the coach bolt fixing.
Eye shield/
Clear protective shields that mount over the grindstone to afford a
spark guards
view of the workpiece, but offer protection for the eyes, They are
mounted onto the spark guards making a complete assembly that bolts
through a hard point on the upper part of the stone cover. The spark
guard itself has an elongated slot to allow positioning and adjustment as
the wheel diameter decreases. Their function is to contain,any material
(esp. sparks) that would be tracked around the grindstone and sprayed
out of the machine esp. over the hands.
ON/OFF switch
A NVR double button switch panel, marked 'I' for On and 'O' for Off. The
NVR function ensures the machine will not be left in the 'ON' condition,
in the event of a power failure, and subsequent re-establishment of the
supply.
Hold down holes
Four 8mm holes set in a matrix in the corner flanges of the chassis to
enable the grinder to be bolted down to the bench or a stand.
