The coolant pump will not run unless the conveyor system is on.

Place the Forward/Off/Reverse toggle switch in the “FORWARD” position.
2)
Verify that the back conveyor belt is moving counterclockwise (when facing
the front of the edger).
3)
Place the Forward/Off/Reverse toggle switch in the “REVERSE” position.
Verify that the conveyor belt is moving clockwise as noted in Step 2.
4)
Place the Forward/Off/Reverse toggle switch in the “FORWARD” position and
turn off the grinding (polishing) wheel. By turning the conveyor speed
adjuster on the D.C. control box, you can vary the glass feed rate from 0 to
66 inches/min. Specific requirements, such as a better polish, may require a
slower feed rate. A chart below is showing approximate speeds.
