then press the [Save Data] softkey.
6. Press the [CYCLE START] and wait for the message prompt
“MPG in X axis to contact wheel/ FIN button to accept”
7. Select the [HAND UNIT] function and an increment [1, 10, or 100] and set the axis selector
switch on the hand unit to the X axis. Turn the handwheel slowly to bring the grinding wheel
towards the dressing disc/roll until it lightly makes contact. Tip: Reduce the incremental jog
as you get closer to the dressing disc/roll to avoid damage to the wheel.

established to store the X axis touch on position. The grinding wheel will move away from the
dressing roll to a safe position in X and then stop.

You can now use the AUTO DRESS cycle to dress the wheel to full form with the profile on the
diamond roll.
