Handlebar
The handlebar helps the operator guide and
maneuver the floor grinder. It is important to
have the handlebar set to a comfortable
working height. There are two height settings
for the floor grinder. The lower setting will set
the handlebar at a height of 41-1/2” and the
upper setting will place it at 44-1/2”.
Handlebar
Adjusting the Handlebar
1. Pull out the two T-handle locking pins from
the handlebar support tubes.

2. Adjust the handlebar up or down to the
desired working height.
3. Align the holes in the handlebar with the
hole in the support tube and reinsert the
two T-handle locking pins into the
handlebar support tube to secure.
Rear Axle
The rear axle assembly on the CPG200 is
designed to allow the rear wheels to pivot
either in front or behind the axle. This
distributes the weight to the front, for grinding
operations, or the rear, to allow the grinder to
easily be moved.
There are a set of four horizontal holes located
on the side of the grinder frame base. These
holes allow the operator to locate the axle
forward for less weight on the grinding discs or
farther back to allow more weight on the
grinding discs.
