1.0 IMPORTANT SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING – To reduce risk of injury:

1. Read and understand the entire owner's manual before attempting assembly or operation.

2. Read and understand the warnings posted on the machine and in this manual. Failure to comply with all of these warnings may cause serious injury.

3. Replace warning labels if they become obscured or removed.

4. This buffer is designed and intended for use by properly trained and experienced personnel only. If you are not familiar with the proper and safe operation of a buffer, do not use until proper training and knowledge have been obtained.

5. Do not use this buffer for other than its intended use. If used for other purposes, JET disclaims any real or implied warranty and holds itself harmless from any injury that may result from that use.

6. Always wear protective eye wear when operating machinery. Eye wear shall be impact resistant, protective safety glasses with side shields which comply with ANSI Z87.1 specifications. Use of eye wear which does not comply with ANSI Z87.1 specifications could result in severe injury from breakage of eye protection. (Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses; they are NOT safety glasses.)

7. Wear proper respiratory protection.

8. Wear proper apparel. Do not wear loose clothing, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which may get caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.

9. Wear protective clothing such as apron or safety shoes, where the work activity presents a hazard to the operator.

10. Wear ear protectors (plugs or muffs) if the particular work requires it.

11. Do not operate this machine while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or any medication.

12. Make certain the switch is in the OFF position before connecting the machine to the power supply.

13. Make certain the machine is properly grounded.

14. Make all machine adjustments or maintenance with the machine unplugged from the power source.

15. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Form a habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from the machine before turning it on.

16. Keep safety guards in place at all times when the machine is in use. If removed for maintenance purposes, use extreme caution and replace the guards immediately after completion of maintenance.

17. Check damaged parts. Before further use of the machine, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced.

18. Provide for adequate space surrounding work area and non-glare, overhead lighting.

19. Keep the floor around the machine clean and free of scrap material, oil and grease.

20. Keep visitors a safe distance from the work area. Keep children away.

21. Make your workshop child proof with padlocks, master switches or by removing starter keys.

22. Give your work undivided attention. Looking around, carrying on a conversation and “horseplay” are careless acts that can result in serious injury.

23. Keep proper footing and balance at all times so that you do not fall into or lean against the buffing wheel or other moving parts. Do not overreach or use excessive force to perform any machine operation.

24. Disconnect buffer from power source before servicing and when changing wheels.

25. Use recommended accessories. The use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury to persons.

26. Turn off the machine before cleaning. Use a brush to remove chips or debris — do not use bare hands.

27. Never leave the buffer running unattended. Turn power off and do not leave machine until wheels come to a complete stop.

28. Remove loose items and unnecessary work pieces from the area before starting the buffer.

29. Don’t use in dangerous environment. Don’t use power tools in damp or wet location, or expose them to rain. Don’t use this buffer in a flammable environment. Keep work area well lighted.

30. Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents.

31. Use the right tool. Don't force tool or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.

32. Use proper extension cord. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table 2 (see sect. 6.2) shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.

33. Maintain tools with care. Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating, and changing accessories.

34. Only apply workpiece to lower half of buffing wheel.

35. Do not overtighten wheel nut.

36. Use buffing wheel suitable for speed of machine.

37. Do not crowd the work so that the wheels slow.

38. Use only the flanges that are furnished with the buffer.

39. Do not start the buffer while a workpiece is contacting a buffing wheel.

5.0 Setup and assembly

5.1 Unpacking

Separate all parts from the packing material. Check each part against sect. 5.2, Carton contents, and make certain that all items are accounted for before discarding any packing material. (Check buffer to verify if any parts have been pre-mounted.)

5.2 Carton contents

1 Buffing machine 2 Buffing wheels (IBG-8SSB only) 4 Flanges 1 Spacer kit (contains 3 spacers for IBG-8SSB

and IBG-10SSB; 4 spacers for IBG-12SSB) 2 Arbor nuts (1 left-hand, 1 right-hand) 1 Operating instructions & parts manual 1 Product registration card

5.3 Tools required for assembly

Adjustable wrenches, or tongue-and-groove (“channel lock”) pliers

The Buffer requires only the installing of buffing wheels and spacers. Additional fasteners and tools may be needed for mounting the buffer to a workbench or stand. For your safety, do not plug the machine into a power source until all assembly and adjustments are complete.

Do not plug in the buffer to

power until it is inspected for shipping damage, fully assembled, and moved to its permanent location.

5.4 Securing the buffer

To prevent the machine from moving during operation, it should be securely mounted to a work surface or stand. Fasteners for mounting are not included with the buffer.

1. Align mounting holes on buffer with predrilled

holes in a bench or stand. Sect. 4.1 shows hole

centers for mounting.

2. Insert M10 (or 3/8”) bolts through the holes and

tighten, using washers and nuts.

An optional pedestal stand (not included) is available from JET for your buffer. See sect. 10.0.

IMPORTANT: The buffer’s base plate contains ventilation slots for heat dissipation. These slots should not be obstructed. The rubber feet should be left on the machine when mounting, as they allow air circulation as well as vibration dampening.

5.5 Buffing wheels

1. Disconnect buffer from power source.

2. Install spacers onto each end of arbor as needed for the width of the wheels used.

3. Check the flanges to make sure they are clean and flat. Wheel flanges that are not flat will cause the wheel to wobble.

4. Install inner flange, buffing wheel, and outer flange.

5. Install the right-hand thread nut on right end of arbor; turn clockwise to tighten. Install the lefthand thread nut on left end of arbor, turn counterclockwise to tighten. Do not overtighten the nuts. Place a wrench on the flats (next to the housing) of the spindle to keep the spindle stationary while tightening or loosening the nuts.

Note: On the IBG-8SSB, the brass-colored nut has left-hand threads; the silver-colored nut has right-hand threads.

See sect. 8.0 for further information on inspecting and changing wheels.

6.0 Electrical connections

Electrical connections should be made by a qualified electrician in compliance with all relevant codes. This tool must be properly grounded. Failure to comply may result in serious or fatal injury.

The IBG-8SSB and IBG-10SSB Buffers are prewired for 115V single phase power, and are supplied with a plug designed for use on a circuit with a grounded outlet that looks like the one pictured in A, Figure 6-1. These buffers may be converted to 230V single phase power, see sect.

7.3.

The IBG-12SSB is prewired for 230V only and is supplied with a plug designed for use on a circuit with a grounded outlet that looks like the one pictured in D, Figure 6-1.
