3. OPERATION
The floor grinder is designed to be used either wet or dry. If the floor is being ground dry, ensure a suitable industrial
vacuum is connected and that operator is wearing suitable breathing respiratory equipment. Contact your local work
place health authority to ensure that their requirements regarding respiratory equipment are being met.
Starting the Grinder
1. Check the grinding plate being used is suitable for the material being ground AND THAT THEY ARE CORRECTLY
BALANCED.
2. Check that the grinding plates being used are in good order and properly attached, with all countersunk bolts firmly in
place. Check this occasionally during use, as they can work loose during operation.
3. Check that the grinding plate is adjusted so that it sits level on the ground.
4. Check that all nuts and bolts on the folding handle latch are tight and firm.
5. Raise the grinding plates from the floor.
6. Start the motor by pressing the black switch on the starter box.
7. Lower the grinding plate and commence grinding.
Stopping the Grinder
1. Press the red stop button on the starter box.
Note:
1. By turning and pushing the handles, you can fix vertical grinding position (photo 1).
2. You can adjust the axle’s width for your need (photo 2).
4. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The Floor Grinder has been designed to minimize noise and vibration levels and to provide maximum operator safety.
However, incorrect use of the grinder may cause serious injury and therefore the following precautions must be taken:
1. Do not use the grinder for longer than prescribed in your local environmental working regulations, as the noise load
from extensive daily use may result in hearing defects.
2. Always use protective earplugs or earmuffs, goggles, gloves and correct footwear.
3. Do not modify the grinder in any manner, or use a machine that has been modified by anyone other than the
manufacturer or authorised dealer.
4. Do not add weight to the machine to make the grinder work harder. Instead reduce the number of segments on the
grinding plate to increase performance.
5. Be sure that re-tipped and new grinding plates are properly balanced.
6. Do not run the grinder with grinding head raised any higher than necessary, i.e tipped back on handle.
7. Always be sure that folding handle latch is secure and has not vibrated loose after use.
8. When grinding, the machine is exposed to high vibration. Occasionally check machine for bolts/nuts which may have
vibrated loose.
9. Do not allow water or cotton to enter the interior of the motor.
