DRESSING A GRINDING WHEEL When dressing a grinding wheel, use a suitable silicone carbide stick type dresser or the wheel dresser wrench provided with the grinder, as shown in Fig. 19. Bring the dresser forward on the tool rest until it just touches the high point on the face of the wheel and dress the wheel by moving the dresser back and forth. Repeat this operation until the face of the grinding wheel is clean and the corners of the wheels are square. Fig.
DUST PORT There is one dust port located on the rear of each grinding wheel cover; this dust port enables the user to attach a dust collection system to the grinder. Fig. 22. WHEN USING A DUST COLLECTION SYSTEM WITH THIS METAL GRINDING TOOL, BE SURE THE DUST COLLECTOR IS DESIGNED TO ACCEPT HOT METAL SHAVINGS. MACHINE USE IMPORTANT: KEEP SPARK GUARDS AND EYE SHIELDS IN PLACE AT ALL TIMES. Fig. 22 Figures 23, 24, and 25, illustrate several typical operations that can be accomplished using the grinder.
