environments. Do not leave it outdoors.
11) USE AN EXTENSION CABLE SUITABLE FOR THE MA-
CHINE
Only use an extension cable that is suitable for the power
of the machine you are using and dimensioned according
to its length; consult your local electrician.
12) DISCONNECT THE MACHINE BY PULLING THE PLUG
ONLY
To remove the plug from the socket, pull on the plug only
and not the power cord!
13) AVOID TOUCHING SURFACES THAT ARE EARTHED
Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as refri-
gerators, radiators, pipes and metallic fixtures, etc. Using
a platform to electrically insulate the user from the floor
is recommended.
TRANSPORT AND LIFTING
WARNING! The Manufacturer is not liable for any direct
and/or indirect damage caused by incorrect transport or
lifting.
The machine must be transported and lifted with caution to
avoid accidents and damages.
Lift the machine with extreme caution, holding it with both
hands under the base and moving it slowly, without jerky or
sudden movements.
Do not attempt to move the machine by pulling on the power
cord or other machine parts.
STARTING UP (FIG. A)
WARNING! The Manufacturer is not liable for any direct
and/or indirect damage caused by incorrect installation
or connections.
WARNING! Before carrying out the following operations,
make sure that the machine’s plug is disconnected from
the mains.
The machine is supplied with some disassembled components
and before using it, it must be cleaned and installed.
When choosing where to put the machine, the following should
be considered:
-that the planned position is not damp and is protected from
atmospheric agents.
-that the support area is perfectly even and the floor is non-slip.
-that there should be a large operational area around the
machine free from obstacles.
-that the room should be attended in order to prevent free access.
-that there needs to be good lighting.
-that it needs to be positioned close to the general differential switch.
-that the power supply system is earthed and conforms to
the standards.
-that the room temperature is between 10° and 35°C.
-that the work environment is not in an explosive atmosphere
Remove the upper part of the packaging and visually check that
the machine and its components are perfectly intact. Then re-
move the packaging and proceed to carefully clean the machine
in order to remove any protective oils used for transport.
1) Get a bench (not provided) to rest the machine on and a series
of nuts and bolts (not provided) for fixing it to the bench.
2) Proceed to assemble the components as illustrated in the
figure. If in any doubt, please contact your retailer. Levers
can be rotated, without unscrewing them, by simply pulling
them towards you and rotating them one turn at a time. This
is helpful if the lever hits any obstacle.
3) Assemble the support feet (pos.19) on the base (pos.18).
4)
Position the machine and fix it firmly using the holes
present on the base.
5) Mount the bottom flap of the disc (item 6) and tighten all
the screws to secure it firmly to the machine. The exhaust
manifold (item 5) should be facing right.
6) Assemble the belt work surface (pos.9) inserting the slot on
the belt; screw in the lever (pos.15) and secure the surface.
7) Assemble the disc work surface (pos.3); screw in the two
levers (pos.7) and secure the surface.
8) Insert the goniometer (pos.4) on the disc work surface.
9) Observe the instructions in the “Adjustments” chapter.
Make sure that all the parts have been properly and securely
assembled and that the machine is stable before starting it.
ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING! Before conducting checks and adjustments, turn
the switch to the OFF “O” and unplug the machine from the
electric power supply.
BELT POSITION ADJUSTMENT (fig.C)
To adjust the belt to the driving wheel when the machine is
running, rotate the hand wheel (pos.16):
- clockwise to move the belt to the left
- counter-clockwise to move the belt to the right.
The belt should be perfectly centred to the wheel under the
transparent guard (pos.12).
WORK SURFACE ADJUSTMENT TO THE ABRASIVE TOOL
The distance between the work surface and the abrasive tool
must follow that indicated in fig.D.
BELT WORK SURFACE LIMIT STOP ADJUSTMENT
To adjust the surface limit stop (pos.9), slightly screw the
grub screw in or out (pos.13); and secure it with the nut
under the surface.
WORK SURFACE TILT ADJUSTMENT
To adjust surface tilt (pos.3-9) to the abrasive tool (pos.2-
8), use the levers (pos.7-15) so as to tilt the surface to the
required angle.
STARTING AND STOPPING
WARNING! Before starting the machine, wear the personal
safety devices described in previous chapters (not supplied
with the machine).
WARNING! Whilst starting and stopping, make sure that
nobody approaches the machine. Keep safety distance from
all parts in motion and from the sanding area.
WARNING! The motor, the moving parts and the abrasive
tools continue to run for a short while after the machine
is switched off. During this time, these parts must not be
touched. Serious injury hazard!
Before starting the machine check the integrity of all the com-
ponents and that all the bolts and couplings are tight.
The switch starts both the belt (pos.8) and disc (pos.2).
STARTING UP
1) Make sure service keys are inserted.
2) Insert the power cord plug into the socket.
3) Stand in front of the machine and make sure people and
animals are kept away.
4) To start, press the ON ‘I’ switch (pos. 1).
