Maintenance
Repair
of the surface grinding machine.
ATTENTION!
Properly performed regular maintenance is an essential prerequisite for
operational safety,
failure-free operation,
a long working life of the surface grinding machine and
the quality of the products which you manufacture.
Installations and equipment from other manufacturers must also be in good order and condition.
6.1
Operating material
6.1.1
Machine lubricants
Safe operation of the machine is only guaranteed if suitable lubricants are used.
6.1.2
Coolants
In order to avoid interferences during operation the coolant and the slideway oil or grease need
to be compatible.

INFORMATION
The surface grinding machine was painted with a one-component lacquer. Take this criterion
into account when selecting your cooling lubricant.
The company Optimum Maschinen Germany GmbH does not assume any guarantee for sub-
sequent damages due to unsuitable cooling lubricants.
The flashpoint of the emulsion must be higher than 140°C.
When using non-water-miscible cooling lubricants (oil content > 15%) with a flashpoint, ignitable
aerosol air mixtures might develop. There is a potential danger of explosion.
ATTENTION!
Only the correct selection of suitable combinations of coolants and bed track oils and
the correct care and maintenance of the coolant can ensure that no problems such as
stick-slip effect or deposits occur.
The selection of coolants and bed track oils, lubricating oils or greases and their maintenance is
determined by the machine user or operator.
Therefore Optimum Maschinen Germany GmbH cannot be held responsible for machine dam-
ages caused by unsuitable coolants and lubricants as well as insufficient care and mainte-
nance of the coolant. If you have problems with the coolant and bed track oil or grease, please
contact your mineral oil company.
