HousingNOTE: An alternate method for setting the depth ofcut is to place a feeler gauge of required thicknessbetween the adjusting nut and top housing. Makesure there is no grease or dirt between the adjustingnut and top of the housing.e.Rotate adjusting nut until feeler gauge is justheld between adjusting nut and top of housing.All backlash must be removed.f.Tighten locking screw (1, Fig. 27) securely andremove feeler gauge (4) if this ALTERNATEmethod is used.g.Hold down on the handle applying morepressure on tool bit side and rotate clock-wiseuntil the unit turns freely and is bottomed outbetween the adjusting nut (2) and top of theNOTE: To avoid damage to the tool bit, never rotatecounterclockwise when the tool bit is in contact withthe counterbore ledge.h.Measure the counterbore depth asdescribed earlier in steps (6, a-c) of thisSection. Continue counterboring asrequired.8.Maintain Counterboring Tool as follows:a.Maximum tool bit life, of these accuratelyground select carbide bits can be obtained byproper fitting into the tool bit holder and expertregrinding.b.Regrind tool bits as shown in Fig. 27.Figure 28. - Tool Bit Grinding SpecificationsA. 0.24-0.51 mm (0.010-0.020 in.)B. 8C. 0.20-0.25 mm (0.008-0.010 in.)R.D. 7°E. 10°F. 6°G. 4.7 mm (3/16 in.) minimum.CGES-185-3PRINTED IN UNITED STATES OF AMERICAPage 25
