entire manual BEFORE 

using machine.

To complete a typical operation, the operator 
does the following:

1.  Examines workpiece to make sure it is suit-

able for grinding.

2.  Ensures magnetic chuck is mounted securely 

to surface grinder table.

3.  Thoroughly  cleans  top  surface  of  magnetic 

chuck and bottom of workpiece(s) to ensure 
positive mating between the two.

4.  Places workpiece(s) on chuck.

5.  Adjusts  work  stops  and  adds  spacers  as 

necessary to prevent workpiece(s) from slid-
ing during operation.

6.  Engages magnetic chuck by turning ON/OFF 

selector to ON.

7.  Checks that chuck has secured workpiece(s).

8.   Proceeds with grinding operation.
