  If you're experiencing a rough or chattering valve seat finish, or excessive vibration with your Kwik-Way Grinder, several factors could be responsible. First, ensure the grinder wheel has a smooth finish. Also, check for and tighten any loose arbor in the guide. It's important to only use Kwik-Way grinder wheels. Furthermore, examine the grinder body for a worn inner sleeve and replace it if necessary. Similarly, inspect and replace a worn arbor or worn bearings in the grinder unit.

  If your Kwik-Way Grinder is producing valve seats that are not concentric, there are a few potential causes. Check for a worn arbor and replace it if necessary. Also, ensure that the arbor is not loose in the guide and tighten it if needed. Reduce any side pressure you might be applying. Finally, inspect the arbor for bending and either straighten it or replace it.
