Reconditioning Disc Brake Rotors—Set-Up
1. After the brake rotor is mounted on the arbor, install the
silencer band. This is easily done by stretching the band to its
full length and then wrapping it around the rotor and hooking
the end metal loop over a lead weight, Fig. B 9.
2. Center the twin cutter to the rotor. Loosen the stud nut,
Fig. B 10, and adjust the twin cutter so that the rotor is centered
between the tool bits. The slot of the twin cutter should be
approximately parallel to the lathe spindle. Tighten the stud nut
firmly.
3. Install the safety shield. Review the CAUTIONS / DAN-
GERS and GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS. The safety
shield is easily screwed onto the twin cutter in the threaded
mounting hole provided, Fig. B 11. Also always wear safety
glasses or a face shield. Cutting or grinding on an exposed sur-
face such as a rotor will produce flying chips.
