Whenyou’reindexingtothenextutebetweengrinds,
the tool needs to be clear of the grinding wheel. To
do so, you have the choice of rocking the air spindle
towards you, or using the Motor Vertical Lift Indexing
Handle. When using the motor lift handle, if you notice
that the motor isn’t returning consistently, try tightening
the backlash compensation screw.

CUTTERMASTER Professional Products have been designed to accommodate a variety of needs.
This system has been designed to be easy to use and maintain. As with all machine tools care must
be taken to keep all working surfaces clean and in good repair. There are 5 movements to your
CUTTERMASTER Professional DC tower
• Up and down using Top dial lead screw
• Motor Tilt
• Motor Tip
• Base pivot
• VerticalIndexingwiththehandle(forquickliftoutofutes,Cornerrads)
The DC Motor comes with a single or twin spindle so motor/spindle assembly spindle to positive and
negative angles and rotates 360°. Cutting tool clearance angles can be tensioned so as to be quickly
adjusted as needed providing real angle result when setting angles without the use of tools.

Most grinders have a single speed AC motor, designed to be inexpensive for the manufacturers to
produce. This is not conducive to a good tool grinding environment where conditions vary from tool to
tool. DC motors have more torque throughout their variable range of speeds allowing for deeper cuts
without heat damage to the tool, given that it is a dry grinding environment. The twin wheel head of

Ourgrindingwheelshavebeenspecicallydesignedfordrygrindingandgoodbalance.Onceyou
get your wheels dialed in, you can work from wheel to wheel without having to re-mount and dial in as
frequently.
The Toycen Radius Air Bearing has a 180° swivel base for radius grinding and takes standard 5C
collets with end mill holders available that can hold shank sizes up to 2”. The Toycen Motor Tower
provides easy and accurate positioning of the wheels to the tool being ground and allows two wheels
to be set and trued allowing for the indexing of one wheel to the next which is intended to reduce set
up times.

Themachineshouldbekeptfreeofdustanddebrisandwhennotinusealightlmofoil(e.g.Oiland
WD-40 mix) should be applied to unprotected metal surfaces.
The assemblies are all cast iron and steel sliding surfaces and threads should be kept clean and
dry:aperiodiccleaningbysprayingwithWD-40andblownowithcompressedairwillkeepthelead
screws in good service. Gibs should be free of dirt and slide freely.
The Base and Motor Tower: The CUTTERMASTER Professional JX has been designed using the
proven Cuttermaster base, the system is stable and allows for the use of magnetic base indicators in
virtually any position. There is no guessing when dialing-in any feed or position move. Being made

tightening. Note: Always check all wheel mounts, angular and rotational adjusts for suitable
tightness prior performing a grinding operation.
Choose a good, stable and quiet location (The CUTTERMASTER Professional is very quiet) for the
machine. We recommend our CM-10S Cabinet Base if one is needed. Level the machine using a lev-

and dry for operation. They may be wiped down from
time to time with a WD-40 and oil mix to prevent rust.
During normal operation care should be taken to
keep the carriages and leadscrews clean and free
from dust and can be done with compressed air. The
lead screws are black oxide 4140 steel with steel
drive nuts. The carriage drive nuts can be easily re-
placed should they wear over time.
A light colored back drop helps the operator locate
the grinding wheel as it approaches the tool and also
protects the ways.

The DC Variable Speed Motor and Control is reversible, variable speed and produces ten times
the torque than the standard 1/3HP AC motor . This helps eliminate tool burning by facilitating heavy.
Cuts at greatly reduced RPM, cutting grinding times in half on some tools. Read the appendix KB
Control Board Manual before operating. The internal circuit board trim pots have been set according
to our preferences.
The CM-02A Air Spindle:
Note: Always have air supplied to the air spindle when being moved or in use. Check the air spindle
components and wipe them completely free from dust and oil using acetone or a solvent that does not
leave a residue (See Cleaning Section).
Hook up shop air to the air spindle. There must be clean dry air present (must have an air dryer on
theline)itcanbeusedwithoutadditionalltrationandmoisturecontrol.

The height of the stylus that the end mill rides on should be kept to the same height as the center line
of the air bearing spindle. Using a 3/8 5C collet mount the 3/8 Half Pin in the air bearing to set the sty-
lus height. The face points down, parallel with the x table top face. Raise the stylus to touch the face
