9. Remove the nut & washer from the contact shaft.
10. Install the contact wheel (inside marked), washer,
and nut. Tighten the contact nut (15/16” socket or
wrench) by depressing the spring-loaded wheel
lock button and rotating the contact wheel until
full engagement of the wheel lock is felt. After
tightening, release the wheel lock button.
11. Using a straight-edge, align the platen with the
tangents of the center portions of the contact and
idler wheels and tighten the mount screws (4).
12. Install the remaining platen screws (2).
13. Install the belt guard standoffs (2) to the beam.
14. Rotate the take-up lever to the “release” position
(towards the motor) and install the desired
grinding belt over the center of the idler and
contact wheels. Rotate the take-up lever to the
“lock” position (away from the motor, until the
over-center stop is felt) in order to proceed with
initial belt tensioning.
15. Adjust for the desired belt tension by rotating the
tension knob clockwise (from top) to increase, or
counter-clockwise to decrease. Adequate tension is
required for the belt to “track” properly. Rotate
the idler wheel by hand to make sure that the belt
is not tracking too far off of the idler and contact
wheels.
16. Attach the belt guard to the standoffs using the
wing screws (2).
17. Adjust the belt guard guide so that the guide
engages the hole in the guard, up against the
washer, and tighten the jam nut against the beam.
