APPENDIX A
  MANUAL HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT FLANGE ASSEMBLY
For those end-users wanting to run a different grinding wheel on their E\
cogrinder, we make 
a	manual	height	adjustment	flange	assembly.
 
1.  Follow the steps to remove the grinding wheel.  Once the grinding wheel \
is removed, 
you can now start the installation and adjustment of the manual height adjustment 
flange.
2.  Install the adjustment screw, lock nut, and adjustment nut into the bottom pulley and 
spindle shaft as shown below.
   
						

							45
 3.  Place the grinding wheel on top of the adjust screw and check the air gap between 
the top of the grinding wheel and the brush assembly.  The grinding wheel should 
be adjusted so there is a 1mm air gap between the ruler and the brush ri\
ng.  Test by 
turning	the	wheel	to	make	sure	the	ruler	is	floating	on	top	of	the	brush.
 
4.	 If	 the	air	gap	 is	too	 large	 or	too	 small	 remove	 the	flange	 and	adjust	 screw.	 Turn	the	
adjust nut clockwise to raise the height of the grinding wheel or counter clockwise 
to lower. Go back to step three and check the air gap again.  Repeat until air g\
ap is 
correct.
 
Note: You will need to check the grinding wheel height before each use.  As the diamond 
segments	 on	the	 grinding	 wheel	wear	down,	 the	manual	 height	adjustment	 flange	
will need to be adjusted to keep the diamond segments just above (1mm a\
ir gap) 
the top of the brush assembly.

5.	 Once	the	correct	 air	gap	 is	set,	 remove	 the	manual	 height	adjustment	 flange	assembly. 	
While holding the adjust screw and adjust nut in place, turn the locking nut towards 
the adjust nut until they meet.
 
6.	 Hand	 tighten	the	manual	 height	adjustment	 flange	assembly	 to	lock	 the	adjust	 nut	in	
place on the adjust screw.
7.	 With	 the	manual	 height	adjustment	 flange	adjusted	 correctly,	 you	can	reinstall	 with	
the	grinding 	wheel 	and 	flange	 nut.		From 	this	 point, 	you 	can 	follow	 the	instructions 	for 	
installing the grinding wheel.
