4.SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Only persons who have received training are permitted to operate or repair the grinder.
2. Use personal safety equipment such as steel toe shoes, safety glasses, and earplugs.
3. Do not use grinder in area where there is a risk of explosion or fire.
4. Do not start the machine with heads off the ground.
5. Make sure the splashguard is on before stating machine.
6. Before you start grinding, check the floor for bolts, large holes and uneven joints. Hitting
these things can damage machine, tools, and cause personal injury.
7. Make sure all power supply is connected with the right voltage.
8. Use only cold water in water tank. Do not use chemicals in water tank.
9. When filling water tank, to avoid electrical hazards and injury, do not spill water onto the
machine motor and electrical box.
10.Switch off the machine power before changing grinding tools.
11.Disconnect power supply before working or repairing machine.
12.Be very careful with rolling machine on any sloping floors or ramps. The machine can roll
very quickly. Two people may be needed to handle and control the machine.
13.Use caution with removing the grinding tools after finished grinding. Tools can be very
hot. Use gloves to remove the plates.
14.When grinding glues, epoxy paints, or coatings, leaving the machine down on floor could
cause the head to stick to the floor. Always tip back machine as soon as the head comes
to a complete stop.
15.Always store machine in a dry place.
16.Only use Innovatech recommended tooling.
17.The operator must never leave the machine unattended during operation.
18.When grinding dry, use a suitable vacuum to extract the dust.
19.Innovatech is not responsible for any off gassing of hazardous gas that is generated by
grinding materials. It is the responsibility of the operator. Grinding floors containing
asbestos is especially dangerous and can cause health problems. Contact your state or
country for the proper way to handle it.

5.OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before starting:
1. Check the floor carefully and remove all bolts, nails, as well as any loose material that
could get caught in the machine.
2. Fit the appropriate tools to the machine.
3. Fit splash guard to the right height.
4. Connect the power supply. Make sure you have all the phases. May have to check with
volt meter.
5. If you are grinding dry, connect the appropriate vacuum and start vacuum before starting
the grinder.
Starting machine:
1. Turn main power switch on side of power box to ON.
2. Turn forward or reverse switch left of right.
3. Turn manual speed pot up to get the heads turning for desired speed. (If heads do not
move, you may have to lean on handle to reduce pressure on tools.
4. Always grip handle firmly when starting machine. The machine will always move from
side to side with first start.
5. When finished with grinding, turn off machine and let the heads come to a complete stop
before tilting back the machine.
Changing of Tools:
1. Before working on the grinder, bring the motor to a total stop and disconnect power.
2. Tilt machine back on floor.
3. Use caution! Tools can be very hot from grinding. Use gloves.
4. Use special tool supplied to turn center of tool holder to remove tool plate.
5. Replace with new tool plate and turn to lock in place.
6. Lower machine back down and re-adjust splash guard is necessary.
NOTE: IF THE WRONG POWER IS SUPPLIED TO THE GRINDER, IT WILL DAMAGE
THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS IN THE INVERTERS.

OIPB-I02001-PREDATOR32N_V1.0 9 | P a g e 01/ 0 7 / 1 9
6.MAINTENANCE
Clean machine after every use. To clean machine, use a low-pressure water hose or air
pressure. Do not use a high PSI pressure washer. This could force water into areas of the
machine unintentionally and damage parts. A regular inspection of machine for wear and
damage should be done on a regular basis. If any parts have been damaged or have excessive
wear, they should be replaced. If belt is needing replaced, please see separate instructions.
7.TROUBLESHOOTING
1. Check to see if main power supply is on.
2. Check to see if emergency stop is pushed down; if it is, pull up.
3. Check to see if manual speed pot is turned up past 1.
4. Check all cords ends for loose connection.
5. Check fuse in distribution box with test meter.
6. Check to see if all phase are with right voltage (check with voltmeter).
7. Check the converter connector cable to motor.
8. Check for error message on display of the converter.
