* Not necessarily included in the scope of delivery!
10.Electrical connection
The electrical motor installed is connected and
ready for operation. The connection complies
with the applicable VDE and DIN provisions.
The customer‘s mains connection as well as
the extension cable used must also comply with
these regulations.
Damaged electrical connection cable
The insulation on electrical connection cables is of-
ten damaged.
This may have the following causes:
• Passage points, where connection cables are
passed through windows or doors.
The guard is individually adjustable, as to protect the
users eyes during grinding process.
8. Operation
On/O󰀨 switch (8)
• To switch on the equipment set the On/O󰀨 switch
(8) to position On.
• Move the On/O󰀨 switch (8) to position O󰀨 to switch
o󰀨 the equipment.
After switching on, wait for the equipment to reach
its maximum speed of rotation. Only then should you
begin with the grinding.
Work practice
• Exert only moderate pressure on the workpiece so
that it can be machined at constant speed.
• Instead of accelerating your work, high pressure
will cause the drive unit to slow down and even
stop, thus overloading the motor.
• For your own safety, it is essential to secure small
workpieces with a screw clamp or vise.
Grinding
• Place the workpiece onto the workpiece support
(4) and slowly guide the workpiece towards the
grinding wheel (3) at the desired angle to the point
where workpiece and grinding wheel make con-
tact.
• Move the workpiece slightly back and forth to pro-
duce an optimal grinding result. This way the grind-
ing wheel (3) will be evenly worn. Allow the work-
piece to cool down occasionally.
Important!
If the grinding wheel becomes jammed during op-
eration, remove the workpiece and wait until the tool
reaches its top speed again.
Changing the grinding wheels
Important note: In order to prevent injuries from ac-
cidentally starting the machine the machine’s main
switch must be turned o󰀨 before changing a grinding
wheel. Pull power plug!
• Loosen the spark gard and the eye shield and pull
out as far as possible. Do not remove these parts!
• Loosen work rest and pull out as far as possible.
• Undo the screws of the grinding wheel guard (6)
and remove the guard.
• Take o󰀨 outside ange and the old grinding wheel,
then assemble the new one.
Important note:
• Do not remove the pieces of card board on the
sides of the wheel, as they are intended for
strengthening the grip of the Flange against the
grinding wheels.
