VALVE FACING
De-grease/clean valves, making sure they are free of carbon deposits BEFORE attempting to grind.
PRE-GRIND SET UP
1. Dress the grinding wheel (as needed).
2. Install the valve and set the valve stop.
3. Set the swivel plate to the desired angle.
4. Set the spindle slide stop.
5. Set the chuck speed as dictated by the valve head diameter.
FACING THE VALVE
1. With the traverse handle in the extreme right hand position, depress the left side (chuck/spindle)
of the rocker switch, turning on the power to the machine.
2. Move the traverse handle slowly to the left until the motors and coolant pump come on.
NOTE: Adjust the coolant flow onto the face of the valve. Never allow
the coolant to be directed into the chuck. Suspended grit in the
coolant will cause damage to the chuck balls and collars.
3. Bring the valve face into contact with the grinding wheel by SLOWLY turning the feed hand
wheel clockwise while at the same time slowly passing the wheel back and forth.
4. As the last low spot is removed, stop feeding the hand wheel in and pass the wheel across the
face 3 or 4 times. (This will put on the finish grind). Allow the valve to spark out before
proceeding to step 5.
5. Park the wheel in contact with the valve and turn the hand wheel counter-clockwise moving the
valve face away from the grinding machine.
WARNING: DO NOT draw the wheel off the valve.
6. Move the traverse handle to the extreme right so the automatic switch shuts off both motors.
WARNING: NEVER attempt to release or remove the valve from the chuck while either motor is
still turning.
7. Press the chuck release valve and remove the finished valve.
