Buffing Wheel Care
Buffing wheels can sometimes become
caked or clogged with buffing compound,
reducing their effectiveness. In order to
clean a buffing wheel, use a commercially-
available buffing rake, such as those avail-
able on
Page 15
.
To clean the buffing wheel:
1.
With the machine plugged into power,
stand to the side of the grinding wheel
and turn the machine
ON .
2. Hold the buffing rake firmly on the tool
rest with both hands and press it lightly
against the front surface of the buffing
wheel.
3. Move the buffing rake in a side-to-side
motion, while keeping it even with the
surface of the buffing wheel. As the
buffing wheel is cleaned, old com-
pound will be removed and fresh fibers
exposed.
4. Regularly pull the buffing rake away
from the wheel for visual inspection
and repeat
Steps 3 & 4 until the sur-
face of the wheel appears to cleaned
of compound and restored to its origi-
nal condition and color.
Grinding Wheel
Dressing
Dressing restores the grinding wheel with
a like-new abrasive quality. Whenever the
front surface of the wheel loses its abra-
sive qualities or balance due to particle
loading or polishing of the wheel surface,
then the wheel should be dressed. Use a
commercially-available dressing tool, such
as those available on
Page 15 .
To dress the grinding wheel:
1.
With the machine plugged into power,
stand to the side of the grinding wheel
turn the machine
ON .
2.
Allow the machine to run for at least
one full minute to make sure that the
grinding wheel is safe to use, then
move to the front of the machine.
3. Hold the dressing tool firmly on the tool
rest with both hands and press it lightly
against the front surface of the grind-
ing wheel.
4.
Move the dressing tool in a side-to-
side motion, while keeping it even with
the surface of the grinding wheel.
5.
Regularly pull the dressing tool away
from the wheel for visual inspection
and repeat
Steps 3 & 4 until the
surface of the wheel appears to be
restored to its normal color and bal-
ance.
The process of cleaning buffing
wheels produces airborne dust and
particles may cause eye injuries or
respiratory problems. Protect your-
self by wearing safety glasses and a
respirator during the entire cleaning
process.
