Features and Benefits
The GP-2000A is equipped with a 125 W variable 0-200 rpm speed motor. The drive mechanism is connected to the motor via a maintenance-free anti-slip polychain.
The GP-2000A also has a lubricant dispenser in addition to a high flow water valve for hands free wet grinding with abrasive papers and lubrication for polishing.
In addition, the GP-2000A can be operated either automatically or independently of the polishing base.
Installation
Install unit carefully! The GP-2000A should be placed on a flat stable surface. Requires air, water supply, drain and electrical connections. After connecting air, water, drain and electrical supplies the system is ready for operation by activating the main power switches on both the polisher and head for automatic operation.
After connecting air, switch the locked lever to “a” position, the head will lift up, then you can swing the head to the left or right side. Move the lever slightly away from “a” position, the head will fall down. Continue to push the lever to “b” position by force, then the head will be locked. In order to achieve better effects, the height from the sample holder to the working wheel should be around 2mm. If the distance is not good, lift up the head, then release the M5 screw on the Height Adjust Ring, and move the ring up or down to get the proper height.
Backside connections
External air supply: It is recommended that the air supply be clean, filtered and lubricated to extend the life and performance of the systems.
Electrical connection: Connect electrical power cable and communications cable.
Heads Operation
Start / stop buttons: Start or stops the head in the manual mode.
Auto/ manual: Manual mode operates the head independent of the polisher.
Auto mode operates head in conjunction with the polisher.
Pistons control: UP/DOWN controls the pistons in the manual mode.
Head speed control: UP/DOWN arrows for increasing or decreasing the
speed.
Head speed indicator: Displays the motor speed (0-200 rpm).
Pressure adjustment: Controls the pressure applied to the pistons.

Trouble Shooting
| Problem | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No power or function | Unit is disconnected from main electrical power supply. | |
| Main power switch is off. Blown fuse | 1.Verify electrical source and |
connection. 2.Turn on main power switch. 3. Replace fuse
No air supply| Air regulator blocked| Clean air connections
Specimens not polished evenly across sample| Specimen not breaking down
grinding paper uniformly. Relative velocity of base and head does not match.|
Position specimen holder so that specimen tracks over the entire radius of the
grinding paper. Match head and base speed
