Note that the 1050 machine can accommodate finishing wheels to 2 inches in width but never larger than
10 inches in diameter. When mounting a wheel on the machine adjust the position of the wheel in respect
to the angle steel work support. Loosen the bolts that secure the motor stand and the frame brace and
slide the machine left or right as necessary to center the wheel.
There are no other maintenance actions required. All bearings are sealed for life and require no lubrication.

Remember for operator safety and the continued effectiveness of your Model 1050:
Do not defeat the safety guards and other safety provisions of the Model 1050.
Do not reach inside the safety guards while the machine is running. To do so is hazardous.
Do not use fluids in your finishing process unless your Model 1050 is designed for liquid operation
(NEMA 4, 4X). To do so may create an electrical safety hazard.
Do not use your Model 1050 to polish explosive materials unless it is equipped with explosion proof
electrical devices and motor.
Do not mix alloys in your buffing. To do so may create an explosion hazard.
Do not use stone or vitreous wheels on the Model 1050. To do so will create an operator safety hazard.
Do use eye, hand, face, arm, leg, feet and body protection that is adequate to protect against flying debris,
forcibly ejected work pieces, etc.
Do not wear loose fitting, of hanging clothing that might become entangled in the rotating wheels, or
shafts.
Do train operators and others in safe operating practices.
Additional safety warnings for the 1050 single side machine:
Danger: A gap (nip point) exists between the face of the finishing wheel and
the angle steel work support. This gap is necessary for the operation of the
machine; however, it does create a nip point that can cause serious bodily
injury. KEEP CLEAR OF THIS GAP.
Wire wheels can and do shed wire particles that can puncture skin and other
body tissue. Never operate this machine without using proper personnel
protection. Consult with your safety officer!
Post these or equivalent instructions such they are available for ready operator reference.
