2.2 Safety instructions
WARNING Before you install, operate or do maintenance on the power tool, you must read the safety
information in this manual. Obey the instructions in this manual to prevent injuries or damage to the equipment.
WARNING Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations, and specifications provided with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury. Save all warnings
and instructions for future reference.
WARNING Put the power tool indoors, in a dry area with good light and a flat and level floor. Do not let the
machine become wet or moist. Do not put the power tool near gas, liquids or other materials that can catch fire or
explode.
WARNING 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.
WARNING The power tool must always be fixed to the floor. Make sure that it is safely attached.
WARNING Do not operate the power tool in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust, or near flammable materials. Power tools create sparks which may ignite such materials.

approved and trained service technicians can do service on the power tool.
WARNING Make sure that the power is turned off before you install, operate or perform maintenance on the
power tool.
WARNING If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
WARNING To prevent mistakes when chains are sharpened, it is very important to understand how the grinding
machine works. Read the instructions carefully before the power tool is used.
WARNING Use protective glasses – risk of sparks from the power tool when grinding.
WARNING Use ear protection – risk of hearing damage.
WARNING Use safety gloves – risk of cuts from the grinding disc or chain.
WARNING Be careful around moving parts – risk of squeezing.
WARNING Stop the power tool immediately if it does not work correctly!
WARNING Before a chain is sharpened, make sure that the the grinding disc is not cracked, does not vibrate or
wobble. If the grinding disc is damaged it must be replaced immediately, see section 6.3, “Change the grinding wheel
and fit the grinding wheel guard”. If abnormal vibrations occur during operation, immediately stop the power tool and
check the condition of the grinding disc.
WARNING Attach air hoses and cables with cable clamps, to make sure no one trips over them.
WARNING The supply cord can only be replaced by the manufacturer, or approved and trained service
technicians in order to avoid a safety hazard.

Safety
CAUTION Only use accessories that are supplied or approved by the manufacturer.
CAUTION If the pitch is not correctly set the chain will be pushed into an incorrect sharpening position. This
may result in a damaged chain.
CAUTION If the metal of a cutting link turns blue during grinding, the speed is set too high and the metal is
overheated. This can cause the metal in the cutting tooth to lose its properties. Replace the damaged cutting link or
sharpen the chain again.
CAUTION It is recommended that the tool is always supplied via a residual current device having a rate
residual current of 30 mA or less.
CAUTION Clean the power tool. To prevent that it breaks, remove grinding dust every day. Use a vacuum
cleaner, brush or similar to clean the machine.

3.1 Product overview
The Combimatic Auto Chain Grinder is a machine that sharpens chains. The machine can sharpen chains (3/4″
and .404” pitch) for power saws, forestry machines, and harvesters. A pneumatic chain tensioner is attached to the
stand. It secures and tensions the chain when it is sharpened. The stand has 2 chain hangers, which makes it easier
to separate the sharpened chains from chains that are not yet sharpened. Accessories are availabe for extra long
chains.
