Entrances. 2 adjustable water lines are directed at each of the 4 wheels. 

Use 2.5” (63mm) inner diameter plastic hose to connect the drain water from the main machine 

to the outside water tank.   

See figures 17 and 18 for a guide to positioning the coolant nozzles for best performance.

Grinding wheel position adjustment 

1. Turn the hand-wheels of all spindles counter-clockwise to move the wheels backward (away 

from glass). The grinding positions where adjusted before the machine was delivered. Turning the 
hand-wheel  clockwise  one  full  turn  moves  the  wheel  towards  glass  grinding  position  in  1mm 
increments. 1 full turn = 1 mm.
