GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and
all instructions. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference. The term “power tool” in the warnings
refers to your mainsoperated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
1) WORK AREA SAFETY
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
or dark areas invite accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power
tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do not
use any adapter plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
ranges and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your body is
earthed or grounded.
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord
for carrying, pulling or unplugging the
power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or
entangled cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use
an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces
the risk of electric shock.
f. If operating a power tool in a damp
location is unavoidable, use an earth
leakage circuit breaker. Use of an earth
leakage circuit breaker reduces the risk of
electric shock.
3) PERSONAL SAFETY
a. a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
b. b) Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal
injuries.
c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before
connecting to power source and/or battery
pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the
switch or energising power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A wrench
or a key left attached to a rotating part of the
power tool may result in personal injury.
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
g. If devices are provided for the connection
of dust extraction and collection facilities,

4
ensure these are connected and properly
used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-
related hazards.
4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at
the rate for which it was designed.
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off. Any power tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power
tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power
tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the power tool’s operation.
If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool
bits etc., in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
5) SERVICE
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
1. Never operate the tool in an area with
flammable solids, liquids, or gases.
Warning:Risk of injury from high-
temperature chips!
High-temperature chips are expelled at
high speed.
Never touch the tool holder and keep all
vulnerable body parts clear while the
machine is running.
2. Always guide the machine away from the
body while working.
3. Do not work holding the machine above
your head.
WARNING! Some dust created by power
grinding contains chemicals known to
cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm.
An example of these chemicals are:
lead from lead-based paint
Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and
work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specifically
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
WARNING!: Never machine materials
which contain asbestos.
4. Use only recommended carbide inserts,
rated at the machine’s maximum rated
cutting rate or higher.
5. Do not use dull or damaged carbide inserts.
Dull inserts cause excessive friction and
binding and excessive load on the motor,
leading to possible damage.
6. Important: After completing the
operation, Wait for coasting tool holder to
stop rotating completely before putting the
machine down.
7. Maintain labels and nameplates. These
carry important information. If unreadable or
missing, obtain a replacement.
INTRODUCTION
This machine is a special, high frequency power
tool which must be used in conjunction with a
special high frequency converter for its power
supply. This converter (which is sold separately)
takes 50Hz or 60Hz supply and converts it to up to
285Hz for use with this power tool. Any other use is
strictly prohibited.
High frequency power tools have many
advantages: High frequency allows high power to
weight ratio as well as extremely even operating
speed. High frequency also has the benefits of long
duty cycles, long motor life, and quiet operation.
The motor is brushless and maintenance free.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
INTENDED USE
This shape beveling and deburring tool is an
electrically driven portable machine:
For machining workpieces in steel, chrome steel
alloys, aluminum, aluminum alloys, brass and
plastic. The machine is designed exclusively for
Adding beveled edges, rounding off edges,
removing burrs , and removing sharp corners on
workpieces. By adjusting the frequency at the
converter, the speed of the machine is variable to
suit the needs of various materials and is equipped
with a graduated, depth adjustable support deck.
It comes with a standard 45 degree tool holder for
use with triangle indexable carbide cutter inserts
to achieve quick and easy beveling.
The machine is equipped with a brake which
allows the spindle to quickly come to a stop when
switched off.
WARNING: The machine should not be
converted or modified, e.g. for any other form
of use, other than as specified in these
operating instructions.
The user shall be liable for damages and
accidents due to incorrect use.
ABOUT HIGH FREQUENCY
High frequency has a number of advantages. It
provides extremely high power-to-weight ratio,
even operating speed, quiet operation, long duty
cycles, long tool life, and low maintenance. An
induction motor depends on the frequency (Hz) of
the supplied current to determine its speed. Thus,
by increasing the frequency, we can generate

6
much higher power output. This requires the use of
a high frequency converter to supply the required
frequency.
This high frequency beveler is designed to be
powered by a special high frequency converter
which converts the 50 or 60Hz supplied from the
grid to up to 285Hz. Thus it has a special 5 pin plug.
It may only be used when powered by the
converter. It cannot be used directly with ordinary
household current. The variable speed is set at the
converter.
The supplied voltage must conform to the voltage
indicated on the tool name plate. Under no
circumstances should the tool be used when the
power supply cable is damaged. A damaged cable
must be replaced immediately by an authorized
Customer Service Center. Do not try to repair the
damaged cable yourself. The use of damaged
power cables can lead to an electric shock.
This machine may only be used in conjunction
with a specially designed high frequency power
pack. The special coupling cable's multi-pin plug
and the converter's socket must match exactly.
Never modify the connectors in any way. Only use
plugs and connections which are designed
specifically for this device.
UNPACKING
Carefully remove the tool and all loose items from
the shipping container.
Retain all packing materials until after you have
inspected and satisfactorily operated the machine.

HOW TO USE THE TOOL
• Effectivecontrolofthispowerfultoolrequires
two-handed operation at all times for
maximum control and safety.
• Protectyoureyesfrominjurywithsafety
glasses or goggles.
OPERATION
The machine must reach full speed before
beveling/deburring begins.
• Hold the machine keeping the support deck
flat and securely to the workpiece. From the
operator’s perspective, the spindle is
spinning clockwise, so always operate in the
direction from left to right (up mill).
• When performing inside bevels, work in a
clockwise direction only.
• Do not bevel more than about 2mm per pass.
If more depth is needed, make multiple
passes until the desired bevel height is
reached
MAINTENANCE
Every 50 hours of operation blow compressed air through the motor
while running at no load to clean out accumulated dust. (If operating
in especially dusty conditions, perform this operation more often.)
KEEP TOOL CLEAN
Periodically blow out all air passages with dry
compressed air. All plastic parts should be cleaned
with a soft damp cloth. NEVER use solvents to
clean plastic parts. They could possibly dissolve or
otherwise damage the material.
Wear safety glasses while using compressed air.
REPLACE THE IMPELLER WHEN WORN
When the impeller becomes worn the workpiece
surfaces will be machined unevenly. Replace when
worn as follows:
1. Remove the support deck and use the face
spanner to immobilize the spindle.
2. Using an appropriate sized wrench loosen
the nut securing the impeller and remove.
3. Replacement is the reverse of removal.
If the replacement of the power supply cord is
necessary, this has to be done by the
manufacturer or their agent in order to avoid a
safety hazard.
WARNING: All repairs must be entrusted to an
authorized service center. Incorrectly performed repairs
could lead to injury or death.
