I picked up a Hercus tool grinder today. I am new to these and have a couple of questions, with more to come no doubt.

In the second photo there is a nut. Is loosening the nut all that is required to change the angle of the spindle in relation to the table. Nothing moves and I don't want to force things.

A manual would be handy but first I will need to work out exactly what model I have. I could not see a serial number or data plate.

It seems in reasonable nick but it appears that the spindle has been greased. Should oil have been used? If so I will strip and clean. It looks like someone has used grease on all points.

I could not get the first photo to be the correct way.
