5.1.2.2 Preparing electrodes for the grinding process
Various collet chucks modified to the electrode diameter should be used to secure the electrodes for the
grinding process.

Incorrect collet chuck!
Using a collet chuck that does not match the electrode size can mean that the electrode
may become loose, the machine damaged and can also result in injury.
• Only use genuine collet chucks!
• Only use collet chucks that match the relevant electrode diameter!
