Accu-Finish SERIES II
SERIES II
Accu-Finish Series II
Accu-Finish is designed to provide accurate angles and superior nishes
on virtually all tool materials. As the name implies, Accu-Finish is not for
rough shaping where large amounts of tool material must be removed.
This is best done on a high speed bench grinder or similar machine. Tool
nishing or resharpening dull tools is the strength of Accu-Finish. Since
proper tool nishing is by far the most critical job, the Accu-Finish works
where the machinist needs the most help.
Safety
Wear proper Safety Items such as safety glasses, gloves, respirator, and
other personal safety equipment as necessary or required.
DISCONNECT machine’s electrical power cord from power outlet before
performing any service on your machine which does not require power.
EYE PROTECTION IS REQUIRED
WHEN OPERATING THIS MACHINE
RESPIRATOR IS REQUIRED
Avoid breathing dust to prevent lung disease.

8. Replace the retainer bar with
the two Phillips head screws.
Make sure the rubber bumper
is oriented properly. It should be
directly across from the rubber
bumper on the other side and the
rubber pointy nub on the outside.
9. See Cfor how to lock table.
*A denite resistance will be
encountered with engaging the
second set of bearings. This is due
to the preloaded design in which the
bearings actually squeeze the mating
track. Align bearings with machined
track before using any force. When
properly aligned, only a slight nudge
is required to urge the table over the
second set.
4. Note there are four (4) ball
bearings mounted on the table
support structure. These bearings
allow the table to roll.
5. Place the table face down on
your work bench. Find the metal
retainer strip located at each
end. From only one strip, remove
the two screws with a Phillips
screwdriver (B). Note the small
rubber bumper.
6. Turn the table face up and start
the table onto the rst set of
bearings, making sure they locate
properly in the machined tracks.
7. Slide table across until the
second set of bearing*contacts
to the end of the track (B).
Conrm proper alignment, then
slide table the rest of the way.
Installation
1. Unpack the machine and parts on
a suitable work surface.
2. Rotate the motor housing up and
back until the wheel spindle is
oriented in the vertical position (A).
3. For easier table installation, loosen
table support by pulling the handle
left. Rotate the support up until it is
at approximately 0°. Lock handle.
Attaching A Wheel
Select the wheel you wish to use
(see application chart below). Attach
wheel to machine with the at head
machine screw using the 3/16" hex
T-wrench. To ensure proper wheel
trueness, make sure that the back of
the wheel and the spindle face are
clean when mounting wheels.

Table Position
The vertical wheel position allows
use of the calibrated table and
tool guide. Two tool angles can be
simultaneously controlled.
Tool clearance (relief) can be
adjusted by setting the table
elevation. To set table elevation:
1. Slide table to the right.
2. Pull the table lever handle left
to free the table, allowing you to
change the angle.
3. Set the elevation scale to desired
degree (0° is square to wheel).
Tighten locking knob (D).
NOTE: To ensure proper elevation
accuracy, the hinged surface between
the main motor housing and the side
support arms must be kept clean.
Make sure that no metal particles or
obstructions are stuck to the holding
magnet or their mating surfaces.
The table is factory calibrated, but
you may want to calibrate it yourself
sometime in the future. With the
table angle unlocked, place a square
against the table and wheel, then lock
the table. This is a perfect 90° -OR-
0° on the angle protractor. Loosen the
locator block and align mark with the
0° mark on the protractor and tighten
the locator block (E).
The tool guide is adjustable to 75º
either side of 0º. Loosen the knurled
locking screw in the tool guide. Set
angle to desired degree on scale and
tighten locking screw.
Tool Guide
For angles greater than 75º, obtain
a piece of at material about 2" – 3"
square by 1/8" – 1/2" thick. Place this
square block against the tool guide
(F). Working from the 90º offset lets
you set all angles.
Accu-Finish offers a Protractor
Extension Arm (#001-822) that
clamps to the tool guide. This makes
it easier to hold the tools while
sharpening (G).

Power Controls
To operate this machine, use the
Rocker Switch (shown above). The
center position designates that the
machine is “OFF”. Press the left side
of the switch to operate in Counter
Clockwise (CCW) mode. Use CCW
mode when you are working on
the left side of the wheel. Press the
right side of the switch to operate
in Clockwise (CW) mode. Use CW
mode when you are working on the
right side of the wheel.
There is an optional Power Foot
Switch (#002-205) available that will
allow you to start the machine with
the touch of your toe. The foot switch
is handy especially when you want
both hands free. The foot switch is
ideal for horizontal lapping.
Changing The Fuse
FIRST: UNPLUG THE MACHINE.
The fuse is located near where the
power cord connects to the machine
(H). Using a screw driver, gently turn
the spring-loaded fuse retainer until
it is loose and pops out. Replace the
fuse in the retainer with the correct
fuse. Press it back into the fuse
housing. Gently turn the retainer with
the screw driver until it locks.
SERIES II
Horizontal Wheel Use
As you learned when you installed
the table, the motor housing pivots so
the wheel is in a horizontal position.
This feature has many diverse uses.
Two of the more common uses
include renishing the tops (or faces)
of inserts and honing at surfaces
on tool blanks. It is also useful in
removing build-up from the top edges
of cutting tools.
Grinding on
Diamond Wheels
Follow this recommended procedure.
Approach the surface carefully with the
tool. Apply cutting pressure smoothly.
Be especially attentive when rst
cutting sharp points. Wet the diamond
surface with the water soluble cutting
uid supplied with your Accu-Finish.
Only occasional spraying to keep the
surface wet is required. Oscillate the
table whenever practical during cutting.
This promotes faster cutting, helps
keep the wheel clean, and increases
wheel life. Clean the diamond wheels
when required (see below).
Clean or Dress a Wheel?
Terminology is often confusing on
the difference between cleaning and
dressing a diamond wheel. Cleaning
means removing dirt. Dressing is
done with an abrasive stick. Dressing
is performed on a rotating wheel and
actually removes a small amount of
wheel material, mostly the bonding
agent. Proper dressing will extend
wheel life, not shorten it. Cleaning
should be done much more regularly
than dressing.
Clean a Diamond Wheel
Remove wheel from machine and
take wheel to a sink. Wet the wheel
with water and liberally sprinkle with
scouring powder (e.g. Bon Ami, Ajax,
Comet). IMPORTANT: DO NOT USE
SOLVENTS. With a scrub brush or rag,
work the powder into the diamond area
thoroughly, then rinse with clean water
and wipe dry.
Dress a Diamond Wheel
Place the Accu-Finish machine in
the horizontal position. Place a cloth
or large rag over the table assembly
to protect from dust. Wet wheel with
water soluble wetting agent and turn
machine ON. Apply Wheel Cleaning
Stick (#001-783) to the wheel and
slowly transverse the stick across
the face of the wheel, maintaining a
moderate, uniform pressure. Remove
stick and turn machine OFF. Clean
abrasive debris off wheel and machine.
Remove cloth from table assembly and
return machine to vertical position.
600
Accu-Finish diamond wheels
are designed for this slow RPM
application. Most materials are
compatible with Accu-Finish wheels,
including ceramic, carbide, borazon,
HSS, and polycrystaline diamond.
We recommend wetting the wheels
with wheel wetting agent. The
concentrate supplied with you
machine is ideal (#001-659, 3 Pack
/ #001-660, 12 Pack). Occasionally
mist the wheel with the agent from a
hand spray bottle. A dry nishing will
give fair results, but wet nishing will
perform better than dry.
Diamond wheels provide long
term economy and performance in
abrasive service if used correctly.
Diamond is the hardest material
known, although the bond which
holds the diamond particles in place
can be damaged. Grooving the wheel
by gouging the bonding material is
the biggest error. The ner the grit,
the easier it is to damage the wheel.
The user should not be afraid of using
moderate pressure while cutting as
the wheels are designed for this.

Drive Belt Replacement
Disconnect machine from electrical
power. Remove rear panel from
machine by removing four (4) Phillips
screws. Roll the old belt(s) off, rst
from the small pulley and then from
the large pulley. Place new belt(s)
over the large pulley rst, align
with small pulley and roll them on.
Replace rear panel.
Lift Kit
Included with your Accu-Finish
Series II is a lift kit. This is for those
who wish to raise the wheel center
higher above the table. Because
some xtures on the market are taller
than Accu-Finish xtures, the lift kit
will allow the use of those xtures.
TO INSTALL LIFT KIT
Remove the side bolts (one located
each side) that hold the motor
housing. Separate the motor housing
from the base. On each side, switch
the bolt bushings and the plastic
plugs. (I).
From the center base, remove the
bolts that hold the latch magnet. Turn
the magnet brackets 90º. Move the
magnet to the top and replace the
bolts (I). Remove the two rubber
stops located at the back. Push the
bolt out of the center of each and
replace with the long bolt that comes
with the lift kit. Insert the long bolt
through the plastic extensions and
replace on base. Reattach the motor
housing unit to the side arms.
