Operation

On/Off switch (8)

To switch on the equipment set the On/Off switch (8) to position On.
Move the On/Off switch (8) to position Off to switch off 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 contact.
Move the workpiece slightly back and forth to produce an optimal grinding result. This way the grinding wheel (3) will be evenly worn. Allow the workpiece to cool down occasionally.

Important!
If the grinding wheel becomes jammed during operation, 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 accidentally starting the machine the machine’s main switch must be turned off 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.
Dissemble screws and pull off end plate.
Take off outside flange and the old grinding wheel, then assmeble 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.
Examine the new grinding wheels on cracks or other visible damages and dispose if necessary.
Mount flange and nut again.
Do not tighten the screw by force. This can cause the grinding wheel to break.
Mount end plate.
Mount work rest, spark guard and eye shield according to installation instructions.
