MOTOR WIRING &
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
Your Model 388 Grinder has been completely prewired at
thefactory, andnoadditionalwiring is necessary. TheModel
388 is set up for a 115 VAC, 50/60 HZ 1 Phase - current.
The grinder operates on a 15 AMP circuit. The wall outlet
should be grounded and look like the outlet shown in
FIG. 14. See FIG. 15 for 115 volt motor wiring, as built.
Toconvertthis grinder tooperateon220 V 50/60HZ1phase
current, cut the plug off from the cord and replace it with the
appropriateplug for yourlocality. For plugandcircuit breaker
sizing, see motor nameplate ratings. Use only a qualified
electrician.
To convert the grinder from 115 Volt to 220 Volt, disconnect
the four wires coming from the motor internally and
reconnect them as shown in FIG. 16. One additional wire
nut will be required to complete. NOTE: This motor will
operate correctly on 60 HZ or 50 HZ power.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electrical current to
reduce the risk of electrical shock. This tool is equipped
with an electrical cord having an equipment grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into the matching outlet that is properly installed and
groundedinaccordance with all local codesandordinances.
Before plugging in your machine, make sure it will be
connected to a supply circuit protected by a properly
sized circuit breaker or fuse.
Do not modify the plug provided if it will not fit the outlet,
have the proper outlet and circuit installed by a qualified
electrician.
Always properly electrical ground
your machine. An improper
connection can cause an electrical
shock. If unsure of the proper
electrical grounding procedure,
contact a qualified electrician.

MAINTENANCE ADJUSTMENTS
GIB ADJUSTMENT
The four gib set screws should be adjusted by loosening the
four lock nuts and then turning in the set screws while turning
the horizontal infeed handwheel. Adjust the gib for a snug
movement of the slide and gib. To adjust all four set screws, it
will be necessary to move the slide from front to back. NOTE:
The slide must be fully in front of the gib screw when making
adjustments. DO NOT adjust the gib screw without the slide
positioned adjacent.
BELT TENSIONING AND REPLACEMENT
To adjust belt tension loosen the two set screws on the Head
Support and push the grinding head forward to tension the belt,
making sure to hold the head square and retighten the set
screws. Headsquarenessis shown on page 7 of the Operator's
Manual. After correctly tensioning the belt, check your tension
with a
5 lbs [2 kg] load applied approximately in the center of the belt,
you should observe 1/8" [3 mm] of deflection. See FIG. 17. To
change the belt, remove the two belt guards, and loosen the set
screwsontheHeadSupport. Push the grinding head in against
the internal spring and remove the belt. Install the new belt
andreversethesequencemaking certain to reinstall the guards.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN OR PRY ON THE
GRINDING HEAD TO TIGHTEN. DAMAGE
COULD OCCUR TO THE MOTOR OR GRINDING
HEAD BEARING.
RAIL ALIGNMENT AND ROTATION
The front (away from the operator) carriage rail is adjustable
in horizontal and vertical planes. The rear rail (nearest the
operator) is adjustable only in the vertical plane. Using a
PRECISION straight edge adjust the rails using the set screws
(#54) and locknuts (#57) as shown on pages 16 and 17.
Afterextendeduse, the carriage bearingswillstartto wear tracks
into the carriage rails. To minimize this, it is recommended that
once a year or every 300 hours of operation the carriage rails
should be turned. Loosen the set screws holding the carriage
rails and turn the rails so the bearings run on a new track.
Retighten the set screws. After rail turning, recheck rail
straightness.
