Light to medium pressure is recommended. Excessive pressure may result in part damage. Lubricants such as water-soluble oil and straight oil will decrease the heat and improve the surface finish and luster. It is the user s responsibility to refer to and comply with all safety regulations.

To dress or restore a square, even face on a Fibratex wheel follow the simple steps below. Narrow Width Wheels (under 8" wide) 1. Use a coarse (24 or 36 grit) piece of silicon carbide coated abrasive that is wider than the wheel to be dressed. 2. Obtain a flat piece of wood that also is wider than the wheel to be dressed. This holding board must be long enough to rest on the floor while reaching 12" above the center line of the wheel to be dressed. 3. The coated abrasive piece should be securely adhered to the holding board at a height in which it will come into contact with the Fibratex wheel. 4. The holding board resting on the floor, is then brought into contact with the Fibratex wheel, removing only enough material to restore a square, even face. 5. Burnish loose fibers with bare piece of wood to expose new mineral. Note: The faster the wheel is running, the easier it is to dress a wheel. If possible, run close to the maximum operating speed of the wheel. Never exceed the maximum operating speed of the wheel. Coarse Silicon Carbide Coated Adhesion Fibratex Wheel Wide Width Wheels (8" and wider) A wide Fibratex wheel should be prepared for use each time it is mounted or remounted to ensure the wheel runs smoothly. Follow these steps: 1.Prior to start-up, or whenever the workpiece thickness changes, make sure the wheel has uniform and proper pressure. Then convey a piece of scrap laminate, approximately the same width as the wheel, under the wheel, turning off the conveyor and hand rotating the wheel. A 1/4" to 3/8" uniformly wide band or footprint should appear across the entire panel. See Condition #1. 2. If a pattern like Condition #2 appears, it is an indication that there may be misalignment between the wheel shaft and backup roll. Adjust the wheel shaft to produce parallel and uniform cleaning. 3. If a pattern similar to Condition #3 appears, the wheel needs to be trued. Mount a coarse (36 grit) piece of sandpaper on a rigid material, such as stainless steel or laminate, and convey through the machine with sufficient pressure to slowly reduce the larger diameter on the ends of the wheel. This operation should be performed with water off. After truing, convey a wide panel of tempered pegboard (or like material) under the wheel with the rough side of material in contact. This should be performed with minimum wheel pressure, water off, and conveyor set at 5-6 FPM. After 8 to 10 passes, the wheel should be ready for processing. Adjust wheel for thickness of scrap laminate and perform step 1 above. It may be necessary to convey two or three pieces of scrap to properly seat the wheel. 59 Holding Board Condition #1 Condition #2 Shaping a Fibratex Wheel Fibratex wheels can be shaped to match the part to be finished. The procedure is similar to dressing, except that the coarse piece of silicon carbide coated abrasive is affixed to a sample workpiece. A file or dresser stick can be used as an alternative method.
