Problem solving 

74.

 

Diamond Grinding has many variables. When you understand some of these, you can solve a lot of problems 
without a lot of bother and expense. 

NOTE: THIS IS A GUIDE ONLY 

 

 

PROBLEM 

CAUSE 

REMEDY 

EXPLAINATION 

Machine will not start 
/ run. 

No power is present at 
cable end. 

Check the power is present 
with another tool. 

Using another tool confirms power 
is present 

Machine is trying to 
start on glue or other 

sticky substance. 

Clear a patch with a scraper 
and grind into the glue a 

little at a time. 

This means it only tackles a small 
amount of glue at a time and 
keeps the glue residue coated with 

dust, preventing glue sticking and 
building up on the diamonds. 

Power lead is too small 

in capacity or too long. 

Upgrade the power lead to 
2.5mm² (15meters max) or 

4mm² (40 meters max). 

The long / small capacity cable is 

too restrictive and can’t allow 

enough power through for the 
machine to start / run properly. 

Use weight on the handle. 

The weight on the handle reduces 
the load on the machine thus 

reducing the current. 

Machine is not 
grinding at all. 

No blades / 
accessories in unit. 

Fit blades. 

Note; check wear 

on machine. 

 

Very hard concrete or 

glazed topping on 
concrete. 

Turn dust extractor down / 

restrict flow. Only just 
control the dust from 

escaping. 

The extra dust accumulating on 
the floor acts as an abrasive 

between the segments and the 
floor thus exposing the diamonds 
better. 

Place river sand or cement 
on the floor. 

The sand is an abrasive as 
described above. 

Use softer grade of diamond 

tooling. 

The softer grade will expose the 

diamonds better. 

Use coarser diamond 

tooling. 

The coarser diamond tooling can 
get through hard toppings without 

wearing out the diamonds too 
fast. 

Reverse the rotation of the 

machine (switch on the 
bottom of the motor box) 

The tooling exposes the diamonds 

when reversed. This works best 
when using plugs. 

The diamonds are 
wearing out too fast. 

The concrete is: 

*Soft 
*Abrasive 
*Rain Damaged 
*A rough finish 
(Scarified or shot 

blasted). 

Use a powerful dust 
extractor to remove as much 

dust as possible. 

The dust, as described acts as an 

abrasive between the segments 
exposing the diamonds 
prematurely, wasting them. 

Use harder diamond matrix. 

The harder segments don’t expose 

as easily. 

Use tooling with more 

segments or area² of 
segment. 

The tooling with more segments 

or area² doesn’t have the same 

weight on them, reducing wear. 

The diamonds are too 
soft or too few. 

Use weights on the handle  

This reduces the weight on the 

diamonds thus reducing the wear 
on them.
