NOTE ! Diamond wheels should not be dressed.
If using abrasive wheels, wheel trueing and dressing should be performed at regular intervals.
For abrasive wheels, dressing is done by means of a diamond set into a tip of a rod. The diamond
dresser is attached to a arm. The in feed is done by the main spindle feed knob. The diamond tool
assembly is supported by the wheel guard. (see Fig. l and 2) Wheel turing and dressing Is particu-
larity necessary when the wheel has become hardened or when sharp corner has been worn off.

be around 0.2mm.
