¾" CORE DRILL
AND BIT
COMBO™
User Instructions
This bit combines a ¾" core drill and a ¾" a WB-1
standard grit grinding head to create a multi-tasking single bit that is both convenient and cost
effective.
Safety
- It is extremely important to wear proper eye protection when using any
glass grinder. We highly recommend that you wear safety goggles rather than
safety glass. The GrinderStation™ is not designed to provide eye protection. You can also add the Inland
FaceShield™ or
MagnaShield™ in conjunction with proper eye wear for added protection: A shield alone is not
adequate eye protection.
- DO NOT wear loose clothing or any accessories (long necklaces,
bracelets, shirts with long fringes, and similar) that might get caught by the grinder
head while using any Inland grinder.
- Use your machine only in a properly grounded and tested outlet. Under
NO circumstances should you override the grounding system or modify the plug.
- Set up your machine on a sturdy, level work surface that is water tolerant and
a comfortable height to work on
- Do not sit your grinder in a pan, on a
towel or carpeting.
Instructions
- Apply a thin coating of Inland Motor Shaft
Lubricant™ (#50022) to the motor shaft.
Our Teflon based lubricant helps prevent the bit
from seizing on the shaft and seals out ground
glass particles. In a pinch, you can use a bit of
Vaseline.
- Loosen the set screw on the bit by turning it counterclockwise
with one of the black allen wrenches. To have access to both the core drilling portion and standard
grinding section you must mount this bit "upside down". You can also mount it like
any regular bit and then flip it when you need to use the core portion. Either way, slide
the bit down onto the motor shaft, positioning the
set screw over the flat side of the motor shaft.
Bits should slide on easily. Do not force!
Contact customer service if you have problems.
- Position the bit down so that you are using the bottom most
section of the ¾" diamond section. Secure
in place by turning
the set screw clockwise with the allen wrench. IMPORTANT:
Always secure the bit to the flat side of the
motor shaft. Tightening the bit to the rounded
side can scar the shaft and prevent bit removal!
- To use the WB-1 portion of the bit turn on the machine and start grinding a piece of scrap glass to get a `feel'
for the grinding action. Begin by pushing the glass into the grinding bit using
light pressure and moving the glass back and forth across the bit. Slowly increase
the pressure until you feel comfortable with the grinding speed and your control.
You'll quickly learn the optimum grinding pressure for the types of glass you use.
When grinding out deep cuts, use intermittent pressure to allow coolant to rinse
ground glass from the head. If you ever have a white paste form on the bit, it is not
getting enough coolant. Stop and check the sponge placement and coolant level.
Grinding without coolant greatly reduces the life of your grinding heads.
- To use the core drilling portion of the bit you will need to apply coolant to the bit head while
drilling. Begin drilling the hole by holding the front surface of the glass against the upper edge of the bit
at about a 45° angle, with the coolant soaked sponge held against both the bit
and glass. (You may want to use two hands). Start the machine and slowly move
the glass down onto the bit to a horizontal position. Continue to work the glass
down and around the bit top in a circular motion, making sure to keep the glass and bit
surface wet at all times. You may need to stop and reload the sponge
several times. Ease up on the pressure as you begin to see the bit come through the
back of the glass to help reduce chipping. It is advisable to practice on a piece of
scrap glass before you begin drilling on your final project.
Maintenance
- Apply Inland Motor
Shaft Lubricant (#50022) to the shaft
whenever changing or removing grinding heads.
Remove the head if you won’t be using the
grinder for more than a week.
- Tighten grinding head set screws ONLY
to the flat side of the motor shaft to prevent
scaring the shaft which makes removing the
head nearly impossible. Never force a bit onto
the shaft and never pry off a bit. If the bit
is stuck, contact Inland Customer service for
instructions at 1-800-521-8427, ext. 306
- Never use your diamond grinding bits without proper lubrication. Failure to do so will result
in premature wearing of the diamond surface.
