1. V. SITE CONSIDERATIONS VI. ELECTRICAL ISSUES Working Clearances: Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of material to be processed through the machine, and space for work tables or other machinery when establishing a location for your slow-speed grinder. The Model G1036 is wired for 110V, single phase operation; it cannot be operated on 220V. The 3/4 H.P., 1720 R.P.M. motor draws 4.2 amps. This is not a large load.
VII. ASSEMBLY A. EYE SHIELD B. TOOL RESTS Attach the plastic eye shield to its mounting bracket using the 2 Phillips® Head screws and nuts provided, then attach the eye shield assembly to the outside wheel guard just above the cutaway. A knurled knob holds the eye shield in place. Figure 1. Attach the tool rest for the 41⁄2'' grinding stone to the inside wheel guard of the G1036, using the knob and Hex Nut supplied. Figure 2.
VIII. OPERATIONS A. SAFETY RULES B. TEST RUN Once the assembly is complete you are ready to test the machine. This Slow-Speed Grinder was designed and built for professional-quality applications. Using this machine without proper respect and caution could result in serious injury. Before you begin using your Slow-Speed Grinder, please read and follow these safety precautions. 1. While operating this machine, do not wear jewelry, loose clothing, necklaces or neckties.
VIII. OPERATIONS (Continued) C. GRINDING The 41/2" aluminum oxide wheel offers a 100-grit surface for general grinding operations. The 41/2" wheel turns at 3450 RPM, making it possible to remove relatively large amounts of material. The smaller wheel is capable of generating enough heat to ruin the temper of metal and make it brittle. Care should be taken to grind in short, light strokes. Prolonged contact between the wheel and your workpiece should be avoided.
IX. MAINTENANCE A. GENERAL B. OIL FEEDER Make a habit of inspecting your Slow-Speed Grinder each time you use it. Check for the following conditions and repair or replace when necessary. Apply a light machine oil to the oil feeder after every six hours of operation. Figure 6. 1. Loose bolts. 2. Worn switch. 3. Worn or damaged cords and plugs. 4. Any other condition that could hamper the safe operation of this machine.
IX. MAINTENANCE (Continued) C. GEAR BOX The gear box contains the worm-and-pinion gear that transmits power to both the 41/2" and 10" wheels. The gears should be lubricated with a light gear grease after every 300 hours of use. Inspect the gears for wear or damage during each lubrication. To lubricate: 1. Remove gearbox cover. Figure 7. 2. Apply a light coating of grease to the gears. 3. Re-attach cover. in the reservoir once a week to avoid clogging the aluminum oxide wheel.
IX. MAINTENANCE (Continued) E. CHANGING STONES To change the 10" stone: The 41/2" and 10" stones can both be removed for re-surfacing or replacement. To change the 41/2" stone: 1. Remove the four cap screws which secure the shaft to the reservoir. Figure 10. 2. Slide the outer bearing off the shaft. 3. Turn the shaft nut counterclockwise while holding the stone. Figure 9. Loosen the nut and turn it counterclockwise to remove it. 4. Slide the stone off the shaft. 3.
