Swiveling the copy grinding device
to working position
1
Swivel the drive unit into the work position and
lock the locking slide (7-5/1) of the copy grinding
device using the locking lever (7-1/1).
ATTENTION
Check whether the copy grinding plate is
suitable for the knife before grinding the
knife. (Compare the label of the copy grind-
ing plate with that of the knife). The use of
an unsuitable copy grinding plate can dam-
age the knife and copy grinding plate.
NOTICE
There is a suitable copy grinding plate for
each type of cutter knife. KNECHT requires a
sketch of the knife or a new knife in order to
manufacture the grinding plate. If possible,
specify the cutter type, blade radius and knife
type.
7.3.2 Setting the balance weight
The balance weight (7-6/1) is used to balance the
decreasing aggressiveness of the wet-grinding belt
due to wear by increasing the grinding pressure.
The farther the balancing weight is from the
wet-grinding belt, the lower the grinding pressure
will be.
The closer the balancing weight is to the grinding
belt, the higher the grinding pressure will be.
The balancing weight (7-6/1) is fixed to the guide
rods (7-6/3) using the clamping lever (7-6/2).
