One Response to “How do i lock the spindle on a boyar schultz 612 grinder?”
Comment by zentura54
There should be a pop out snap button on the right side about 18 inches or so down. pop that out and use a quarter inch rod about 10 inches long and slowly go in horizontally until you touch the spindle shaft. Now hold slight in-ward pressure while slowly turning the spindle/grinding wheel by “HAND ONLY” You should feel the rod fall into one of the spindle locking holes. Use Caution and make sure you turn off your main power before you proceed !! P.S. Try to visually center the spindle with this hole for easier access to the spindle lock holes.
