== Table Removal == | |||
The table needs to be removed periodically to clean the grinding grit from the ways. | |||
The table is heavy. We need a system for lifting the table off of the saddle. THe engine hoist doesn't work well. Perhaps a ceiling supported crane would work. | |||
# Remove the nut at the end of the cable on the right side under the table. Fasten a weight to the end of the cable to prevent the cable from unwinding on the capstan. | |||
== Moving the grinder == | |||
The ball ways need to be removed anytime the grinder is moved. This is necessary to prevent the races from Brinelling. To remove the ball ways, disconnect the X axis cable at each end of the table then prop up the ends of the table. | |||
