LETTER OF AUTHENTICITY
This letter is to certify that all Burr King Belt grinders, Disc
grinders, Polishing machines Vibra King Chambers and Bowls are
manufactured and assembled in the United States of America.
(Tariff number 847990 criterion A)
February 2005
OPERATOR, and OPERATING AREA SAFETY
Subject equipment includes Grinders, buffers, polishers, and other rotating equipment. Serious injury
or death may occur if minimum safety precautions are not understood, and obeyed by operators and
those other persons who may be in the immediate vicinity of the subject equipment. Persons who
operate, or are in the immediate vicinity of the subject equipment must be properly trained in, and
use, minimum safety precautions and procedures for such machinery.
Minimum safety requirements to operate, or work in the immediate vicinity subject equipment:
1. Read and understand all operating instructions, manuals, labels, and other information provided with the
equipment.
2. Install the equipment according to manufacturer’s instructions.
3. Securely bolt the equipment to a rigid, structurally sound mounting surface.
4. Use and wear proper eye and face protection.
5. Use and wear proper protection for the body, hands, fingers, feet, and legs.
6. Review and understand all machine guards, adjustments, and points of exposure to potential injury.
7. Do not remove, tamper with, or otherwise alter, equipment guards, and other safety features.
8. Insure the machine is adjusted, and remains adjusted according to manufacture’s requirements.
9. Maintain the equipment in good operating condition.
10. Have another person who is knowledgeable in proper and safe operation of the subject equipment
demonstrate proper and safe operation to all operators, and to those persons who might be in the immediate
vicinity of the subject equipment.
11. Use work piece holding devices when ever possible that diminish the possibility that persons will come
in contact with moving machine pieces, or spark/debris output from the machine.
12. Use spark and debris arresting apparatus. Such apparatus should be connected to the machine so as to
contain dust and debris that is generated, and to suppress sparks thereby limiting human inhalation risk, and
the risk of fire or explosion.
13. Use appropriate inhalation apparatus to protect person from ingestion and/or inhalation of sparks, debris,
smoke, particulates, etc.
14. Avoid mixing different metals, alloys, and materials. To mix such materials might create a fire or
explosion hazard.
15. Protect persons from work pieces, particulates, etc. that could be forcibly ejected from the machine. For
example, a buffing wheel or grinding belt can “grab” a work piece while the work piece is being buffed,
polished, ground, or otherwise conditioned, resulting in forcible ejection toward the operator or those in the
vicinity of the machine. The use of leather aprons, gloves, and eye shields are examples of protective gear
that may be effective. In general do not grind, buff, or otherwise engage the traveling belt, wheel, or disc
surface with the work piece pointing into the direction from which the belt, wheel, or disc is traveling.
However, if you choose to do so be aware the work piece may lodge in the traveling belt, wheel, or disc and
be forcibly, and dangerously ejected.
16. Do not operate this machine if the gap (nip point) between a moving belt, wheel or disc and the work
support surface exceeds 1/8 inch.
17. Do not operate this machine if the gap between the moving abrasive belt, disc or wheel and the adjacent
face
page 1 continued on next page
of the work rest (or table) will permit passage of the work piece through the gap (nip point). Note, however,
that certain alloys such as titanium may create conditions where grinding debris can accumulate in a tight gap
creating a potential fire hazard. When in doubt consult with your safety officer. Failure to observe this
warning may result in the work piece or other item being caught in this gap, and/or being forcibly ejected.
Failure to heed this warning may cause serious bodily harm to the operator and/or bystanders. NEVER USE
THIS EQUIPMENT IF YOU ARE NOT PROPERLY TRAINED IN ITS OPERATION and/or SAFE
USE! IF IN DOUBT STOP and ASK FOR GUIDANCE!
18. Never position the work rest table at an acute angle between the top of the work rest table and the moving
belt or wheel. Doing so will create “nip point” that can cause serious injury should an operator body part
become entangled (pulled into) the nip point created by this acute angle.
19. Do not operate the equipment, or allow others to operate the equipment without proper training in these
and other rotating machinery safety requirements.
20. Do not perform maintenance on the equipment unless you are fully qualified to do so, and understand all
necessary safety and operating requirements.
21. Do not leave the machine unattended while it is running.
22. Correct equipment or safety problems immediately. Do not operate the equipment when it requires
maintenance, or correction.
23. Install and use high quality abrasive belts, wheels, discs, media, etc., as appropriate to your machine.
Understand and follow the operating requirements provided by the manufacturer of these materials.
Users are warned not to exceed the below listed revolutions per minute (RPM) on the subject wheels. Failure
to heed this warning may lead to tire de-bonding, fragmentation, or other mechanical failure. Such failures
may cause serious personal injury to operators or bystanders, and/or cause property damage. All Burr King
products are warranted for various time periods to be free of material and/or workmanship defects. Burr King
Manufacturing Companies standard warranty policy is summarized as follows for contact wheels. 1 year
from date of purchase if mounted on a Burr King machine purchased on the same date or 90 days if
purchased as a spare or replacement part. Our warranty does not apply to wheels that are mounted on
products not manufactured by Burr King Manufacturing Company, Inc. Users who mount Burr King
manufactured contact wheels on product not manufactured by Burr King Manufacturing Company, Inc. do so
at their own risk and assume all liability for having so mounted the contact wheel(s).
Remember good safety practice demands guarding to protect operators and bystanders from wheel failure
and/or debris. Never use the subject contact wheels without proper guarding that meets commonly accepted
safe practice. See OSHA, U/L, CSA, CE, ISO and other respected safety standards.

Prior to operating the model 760 please take time to do the following:
1. Insure that you have received all of the items that you ordered. Compare the packing slip with your
purchase order, and of course with the physical items received.
2. Verify that there is no obvious shipping damage. If shipping damage is discovered notify the freight carrier
of your intention to file a freight damage claim. They will assist you.
3. Verify that the AC power that is identified on the machine as received matches the AC power that you
intend to operate the machine with. Do not modify the machine’s wiring without first contacting your
distributor and/or Burr King Manufacturing.
4. Do not modify or defeat any AC wiring safety feature. In example, do not remove the grounding pin on the
AC plug.
5. Verify that you have received a warranty card, parts lists, catalog, and Operator, and Operating Area
Safety Instructions.
6. Complete the warranty card and return it to Burr King Manufacturing.
7. Verify that the various guards for the machine are in place and functional. See the parts list for the
indicated part numbers.
a. The contact wheel guard and backup platen are mounted and adjusted such that the platen lightly
touches the back of the abrasive belt (P/N 703, 704A, 704B).
b. The full safety guard is in place, closed and its door latch is functional such that it will securely
hold the safety door closed (P/N 742A. 742B, 742D, and 742C).
c. If an internal grinding attachment is installed insure that all pinch guards are adjusted so as to
guard the belt wheel entry points. This means that the pinch guards need to very close, but not touching the
abrasive belt (P/N 1429, 2 places, see the internal grinding attachment parts list).
8. Prior to operating the model 760 carefully read the Operator, and Operating Area Safety Instructions.
Insure that all persons who will operate the model 760, or who will work in the vicinity of the model 760
read understand, and comply with these instructions.
9. Insure that the grinder is located in an area that provides clear access to the machine such that operators
have safe and unobstructed access to the machine. The work place should be free from floor obstructions, trip
points, and other faults that may reduce operator safety.
10. Burr King recommends that all three phase installations include a magnetic starter. Magnetic starters
protect motors from “single phasing”, overheating, etc. thereby reducing the risk of damage to the equipment
and/or fire hazard to your facility.
11. Insure that the model 760 AC power source is properly sized, and properly fused. You should consult a
competent electrician, or you may call Burr King Manufacturing for guidance.
There are no other maintenance actions required. All bearings are sealed for life and require no additional
lubrication.

Instruction for aligning the idler wheels on model 760 belt grinders
When idler wheels are removed and/or replaced they must be installed such that they are in proper
alignment. Failure to properly align the idler wheels will result in premature failure of the wheels.
Premature failure will be evidenced by outer diameters being excessively worn such that the wheels lose
their factory crown, wear to a truncated form, or become out of balance. Misalignment results in wear that
is analogous to front tire wear when the front steering mechanism of an automobile is miss aligned. The
upper idler equates to the front wheels of the car. If either idler wheel is misaligned to each other or to the
contact wheel excessive, and irregular wear will occur.
The upper and rear idler wheels must operate in the same plane. This means that when they are correctly
aligned a plane passing through the radial center of the upper wheel will exactly pass through the radial
center of the rear wheel. Machines are shipped from the factory with wheels of the same width. In
example, the model 760 prior to mid 1999 was shipped with wheels that are 1.75 inches wide. Currently,
model 760 machines are shipped with wheels that are 2.0 inches wide. The 1.5 and 2.0 inch wheels may
be interchanged and/or mixed; however, if they are mixed their widths must be taking into account when
performing this alignment. The model 760 contact wheel may be 0.5, 1.5, or 2.0 inches wide. Likewise
the width of the contact wheel must be taken into account when performing this alignment.
Never perform maintenance or adjustments as described below on your model 760 without
first disconnecting the machine from its source of electric power. Failure to observe this
warning may lead to serious personal injury.
