Installation and Assembly
The Surface Grinder should
be disconnected from power during
assembly procedures.
Refer to parts breakdowns at the end of this
manual if clarification is needed for any
assembly procedure.
1. Remove the top and sides of the crate.
Leave the surface grinder bolted to the
pallet until it reaches the desired location.
2. Clean all rust protected surfaces with
kerosene or a light solvent. Do not use
gasoline, paint or lacquer thinner – these
will damage painted surfaces.
3. Cover all machined surfaces with a film of
light machine oil to inhibit rust.
4. Remove all absorption bags and any other
packing material. Remove bolts and/or
shipping straps, and remove everything
from the pallet except the Surface Grinder.
5. Use nylon straps that are rated for the
proper weight of the machine to be lifted.
See specifications. Attach the straps to the
lifting bolts. See Figure 1.
Keep people a safe distance
away from the Surface Grinder while it is
being moved.
6. The Surface Grinder must be on a solid,
level surface. If the Surface Grinder is
located next to another machine or wall, you
must leave minimum clearance of 2 feet for
maintenance and operation. Also take into
consideration the size and location of the
Coolant Tank.
7. When the Surface Grinder is in place, the
lifting lugs can remain on the machine.
8. Thread the leveling screws into the base of
the machine. Place the leveling blocks
underneath the screws, and tighten the hex
nut. See Figure 2. NOTE: You will adjust
these to level the machine after the table
has been installed.
9. Raise the wheelhead and remove the block
of wood which was used for shipping.
10. Remove the table hold-downs and socket
head cap screws. These should be saved
for future use.
11. Loosen the table lock (knurled knob) on the
right side of the table.
