Grinder setup, grinding technique and using the grinding pendulum.
NOTE
Do not start the grinder before have read and understood this instruction manual
completely. Ensure the disc is fitted and tightened. Ensure that the switch is in the
OFF position before connecting the grinder to a power source. Do not start the grinder
before having fit the disc guard and first put the safety glasses and ear protection. Do
not attempt to grind until the grinder is at full speed.
ATTENTION !
Always ensure that the disc guard is securely fitted before setting up and using the
grinder. Ensure the emeries are stuck to the disc and have no air bubbles between
the emery and disc. When the grinder is running do not allow anything to come into
contact with any part of the discs.
6.1 Grinding combs
(fig. 1 - 4)
The grinder must be switched off. Hang the pendulum with placed comb on the
pendulum hook. Move the pendulum upright away from the disc according to the mark
«Comb» (fig. 1). Move the pendulum upright towards disc until the comb is placed on
the disc. The adjustment is correct when the heel of the comb touches first the disc
and between the top of the comb and the disc is a distance of 1.5 mm (thickness of a
match) (fig. 2).
Holding your pendulum with the knuckle of your index finger directly under your
thumb, land your comb onto the rotating disc. Move the comb immediately from side
to side by firm and even pressure, about 2 - 3 times (fig. 2). Move the comb as far to
the outer edge of the disc as three teeth are off the edge. Then return the comb to
the motor shaft by a even movement, without any pressure unilateral, until the comb
touches the fixation flange (fig. 3). To finish the grinding (when the comb is sharp),
move the comb as far to the outer edge of the disc as the comb just rests with all the
teeth. Finish the grinding by a little bit stronger pressure, and take the comb off the
disc by a even and continuous backward movement.
NOTE
▪
Always hold the upper part of the pendulum at the pendulum hook with your spare
hand (fig. 4)
▪
Use the whole width of the emery paper.
▪
Always take 3 teeth off the edge of the disc (fig. 3)
▪
Use very firm even pressure during the whole grinding.
