ADJUSTMENTS
PROXIMITY SWITCH
For the proximity switch to perform properly and
reverse the direction of the grinding head assembly,
the sensor end of the proximity switch must face
toward the head assembly that is in use and must
be mounted such that it is located past the edge of
the prox holder.
NOTE: The light on the proximity switch activates
when metal is approximately 3/16" [4.6 mm] from the
front of the proximity switch.
VERTICAL INFEED SHAFT DRAG
If the grinding shaft tends to walk during grinding,
the drag on the vertical adjusters needs to be
increased. To increase the drag in the vertical
adjustment shafts, tighten the setscrew on the
back of the vertical adjustment housing.
