Description


Number of Pages: 71

This is a reproduction of an original Brown & Sharpe No. 2L, 2LB Surface Grinder Operator’s and Parts Manual. For machines beginning with serial No. 523-2-1. This manual can still be helpful to Brown and Sharpe surface grinders that look similar to this machine and are close to this serial number. This manual contains information on setup, lubrication, maintenance, and controls as well as a complete parts list. The is one of the better manuals I’ve seen for a surface grinder. The manual contains lots of picture of set ups, and it shows the parts diagrams for all the accessories. I wish all manual were made as good as this one; it would make all of our lives easier.

Overview:

I have collected this information for many years and have found the information they contain to be priceless in using and setting up the machines properly. I believe this manual will be a valuable resource of knowledge that will provide a lot of helpful information that is often hard to find. My manuals are not photocopies. I maintain a high standard of quality in my reproductions. Most of the manuals I reproduce look better than their originals. I have professionally digitally edited every page, and removed stains, wrinkles and handwriting. All of the manuals are printed on thick white paper to withstand shop wear and tear.
