6.11 Working with the machine
6.11.1 Grinding Vignole rails
The machine is tailored to the required grinding pressure
through its self-weight. During the grinding of the sides of the
rail head the machine is pulled on to the rail by the guide discs,
thus generating the required grinding pressure.
The depth feed of the grinding spindle can be adjusted with
the handwheel.
6.11.2 Grinding points
1.
Coarsely pre-grind the switch frogs.
The fine grinding calls for skilled and precise lowering of
the grinding spindle.
2. Use the handwheel to adjust the depth feed of the grinding
spindle.

it to idle for about one minute.
Also let the engine run for a while (at idling
