Hello, I am getting a new Beaver 4 wheel grinder soon. I would like to know how to rig up a water system on it? Will the pump go in the unit or will I need to run a hose from the front small hole to a holding bucket under my bench and pump the water back up from the bucket. Does anyone have pictures of a Lortone Beaver water setup they can post?
Thanks Jason

I believe the Beaver comes with rubber grommets in the hood to hold 1/4" plastic tubing. I just set up an older Lortone two wheel unit missing the grommets. I used the grommet holes and screwed in 1/4" compression by 1/8" angled needle valves. You either use plastic or copper tubing. I tee the valves together so there is one supply line. Connect the supply line to a submersible pump or water line. I would use a separate drain bucket (don't recirculate the water). Tubing and fittins are available from any hardware store.
