Assembly
Before assembly, always switch off the
machine and remove the mains plug from
the mains.
Assembling the protection guard
(Fig. A and B)
• Place the machine on a table with the spindle
(8) facing upwards.
• Place the protection guard (3) over the
machine head as shown in Figure B making
sure the ridges on the protection guard fall into
the notches of the machine head.
• Turn the protection guard counter clockwise and
secure the guard by tightening the screw (14).
Never attempt to remove the guard.
Mounting and removing the wheel disc (Fig. B)
• Always use suitable wheel disc for this
machine with diameter Ø 100 / 115 / 125 mm
and a bore from 16 / 22 / 22 mm the thickness
of the wheel disc should be 6 mm for wheel
disc for grinding and 3 mm for wheel disc
for cutting, the mounting wheel disc may not
touch the safety guard.
Mounting
• Place the machine on a table with the
protection guard (3) facing upwards.
• Mount the flange (9) onto the spindle (8).
• Place the wheel disc (10) onto the spindle (8).
• Keep the spindle lock button (1) pressed and
firmly tighten the clamping nut (11) onto the
spindle (8) by using the spanner (12).
Removing
• Place the machine on a table with the
protection guard (3) facing upwards.
• Keep the spindle lock button (1) pressed and
loosen the clamping nut (11) using the spanner
(12).
• Remove the wheel disc (10) from the spindle (8).
• Keep the spindle lock button (1) pressed and
firmly tighten the clamping nut (11) using the
spanner (12).
3. OPERATING
Make sure that the work piece is properly
supported or fixed and keep the supply
cord routing away from the work area.
Switching on and off (Fig. A)
• To switch the machine on, press the On/off
switch (2).
• To switch the machine off, release the On/off
switch (2).
Hold the machine away from the work piece when
turning it on and off because the wheel disc could
damage the work piece.
• Clamp the work piece firmly or use another
method to ensure that it cannot move while
working.
• Check the discs regularly. Worn wheel discs
have a negative effect on the machine’s efficien-
cy. Change to a new wheel disc in good time.
• Always first turn the machine off after use
before removing the plug from the socket.
Deburring (Fig. C)
An angle of inclination of 30º to 40º will give the
best results when deburring. Move the machine
back and forth using light pressure. This will
prevent the work piece from discolouring or
becoming too hot and will avoid making groves.
Never use abrasive cutting discs for
deburring work!
Cutting (Fig. D)
For cutting, a special protection guard must be
used (not included).
Maintain firm contact with the work piece to
prevent vibration and do not tilt or apply pressure
and when cutting. Use moderate pressure when
working, appropriate to the material that is
being worked on. Do not slow down wheel discs
by applying sideways counter pressure. The
direction in which you want to cut is important.
The machine must always work against the
direction of the cut; so never move the machine
in the other direction! There is the risk that the
machine will catch in the cut causing kickback
and that you will lose control.
