INTRODUCTION
The Fire Ant Grinder has been born out of my own needs to have a low
cost, functional, versatile, high performing grinder. The modular design
allows for quick and easy assembly.
Features include:
2" x 72" (50 x 1830mm) Belt capacity, for the biggest range of
consumables.
Solid 6mm steel construction, laser cut for accuracy.
3 x tool rest and platen slots for versatility.
Standard platen can be adjusted to a wide range of angles, with
markings every 10" for easy set up.
Quickly adjust for flat platen, to slack belt, to contact wheel.
Ceramic platen backrest option available.
6061 aluminium platen, tracking, and drive wheels for long life.
5" drive wheel (to suit 2hp motor) for optimal belt speed / torque.
Constant development of new tooling and attachments, for both
knife making and general fabrication applications.
Australian Designed and Built.
Extended length platen backrest for greater control.
NOTE: PLEASE DO NOT OPERATE THE FIRE ANT GRINDER UNTIL YOU
HAVE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND ARE FAMILIAR WITH ITS
