10. stop the grinding wheel jog left until the reel blade is on the relief finger NOTE when the Grind Selector is setto variable torque the traverse will wait on the home proximity switch until the indexing finger proximity switch is activated It will then start traversing to the left This ensures a proper blade index before traversing during relief grinding With the blade on the relief finger adjust the index finger positioning by loosening the Index Lock Handle and rotating the index adjust lever on the right side of the grinding head See FIG 32 When this is completed lock it into position by tightening the index lock handle Continue to jog the grinding head up until there is minimal clearance between the reel blade andthe grinding wheel PUSH INDEX FINGER HERE 0 CHECK FOR FREE PLAY INDEX LOCK HANDLE ADJUSTABLE INDEX LEVER INDEX FINGER T KNOB INDEX FINGER gt LOCKING PIN TN RETRACTED POSITION ROTATED COUNTER CLOCKWISE INTO RELIEF GRINDING POSITION SHOWN WITHOUT GRINDING WHEEL FOR CLARITY FIG 32 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Continued Close and latch doors then turn the Spin Drive motor on NOTE The spin drive will apply torque load against the fingers Setthe Relief Torque Potentiometer at approximately 15 NOTE Free turning reels may need a lower value than 15 Stiff reels or reels with a drive train may need a higher torque than 15 Do not exceed 45 on the relief torque potentiometer

20. dness For all reels there is an optimum Spin Speed where there is an AGGRESSIVE yet smooth grind as you spin grind the reel Your objective is to spin grind the reel as aggressively and as fast as possible while maintaining top quality It is recommended to start grinding each reel at a Spin Speed of 200 RPM 50 and evaluate the RPM by adjusting higher and lower to optimize the Spin Speed for that reel If the Spin Speed is incorrectly set you can experience two problems grinding wheel dressing or grinding wheel resonance Each of these problems is explained below On some reels especially small diameter high blade count reels if the Spin Speed RPM is set to high the reel can act as a dresser to the grinding wheel There can develop what appears to be a very aggressive grind as if the infeed has self infed and then a sudden stop of grinding with no grinding wheel to reel contact If this occurs your Spin Speed was set to high and you effectively dressed your grinding wheel Some reels have a resonant RPM where the reel goes into harmonics with the grinding wheel and the resonance vibrates the grinder and results a very bad grind By changing the Spin Speed to a higher or lower RPM you will move out of the resonant range After determining the best Spin Speed RPM for a reel note the RPM on the Set up Chart in the NOTES section See page 33 By noting the correct RPM you will avoid evaluating the Spin Speed the next time you grind
