dimension your machine holder demands

Optimum Diamond Usage
- Index or Turn the Diamond in the Holder
- If a coolant is used, don't skimp or you may quench the diamond.
This may cause cracking.
- Remove or dress away from .0005" to .003" - be conservative
- Use a drag angle simply tip diamond in direction of wheel travel
from 7° to 15°. This will
prevent wheel gouging and diamond shock.
- Touch wheel on high spot and continue dressing from there.
- Make sure all is secure
- Reset only when necessary
- Keep diamond point protected
- Do not purchase too good a diamond. That is an Octahedron, when a
knotty irregular will do the job.
