I. SCOPE AND PURPOSE
This handbook provides information for operating and maintaining the following
model series of K. O. Lee Universal Grinders and Tool and Cutter Grinders: B360,
BA960. BA962, B2060. B2062. B6060. B6062 Universal Grinders; B300, BA900.
B2000, Tool and Cutter Grinders.
Models are manufactured with various suffix letter combinations Regardless of
specific model number, in most instances all portions of this handbook will still be
applicable. At the time of printing, the instructions that apply to K. O. Lee grinders
were accurate, but due to engineering advances, it is possible the machine delivered
to you may vary somewhat from the descriptions in this book. In the above listed
models, suffixes "X" and "Y" define certain standard models less some standard
equipment as defined in the catalogues and price sheets. "H" stands for hydraulically-
powered-table-travel. "B" stands for anti-friction table travel or "ball-track" sys-
tem which became available in 1977. Prior to that, the designation "BB" was used
for models which had ball bearing mounted V and flat rollers as table saddle ways.
"M" stands for metrically-calibrated-feed-handwheels.
MODEL AND SERIAL NUMBERS are located on a stamped name plate at the rear
or side of the machine base on most models.
While it is the purpose of this manual to cover the most typical operations performed
on universal tool and cutter grinders, and on K. O. Lee machines specifically, it
makes no attempt to be exhaustive. It should be taken as a primer on the technology
and art of tool room grinding, recognizing that there are often many different
approaches to a particular grinding problem. Our goal is to engender familiarity and
satisfaction with our machines and tools To that end, we hope this work will be
of value to the beginner as well as the experienced machinist.
