Operating during grinding
To get an optimum result during grinding, the machine may not stand still. The machine must always be in
movement so it does not grind too deep into the floor. Move the machine from left to right and from forward to
backwards to get a nice flat result.
Carry out grinding in parallel tracks in such way that the dust hose and electric cable do not become twisted.
The next figure shows the recommended grind paths leading away from the dust collector.
The advancing speed depends on the material of the surface to be treated and the desired profiling.
Regularly check the contents of the dust collector. Always wear a dust mask of at least class FFP3 when
emptying the dust bin or changing the dustbag /bigbag. Observe and obey the local waste disposal
regulations!
Make sure that no vehicles, such as forklift trucks and other equipment run over the electric cable and the dust
hose.
For soft floors it is recommended to work with hard bond, for hard floors use soft bond.
Contact our experts at Blastrac for the correct application of the different tools.
In case of emergency or operating trouble, like vibrations or strong noises, switch the machine off
immediately by hitting on the OFF-button!
