2. Machine Maintenance
Regular servicing is a prerequisite for maintaining the machine’s high quality. Regular servicing of the
machine consists of visual inspections and keeping it in a clean state.
All the elements used for clamping tools must be kept perfectly clean. Furthermore, it is necessary to
clean the filter element as follows: Remove the strainer with the filter element (Figure 3, position 14),
flush with a stream, possibly blow it out. If necessary clean the nozzle, remove the water-hose from valve
and blow-over with a stream of air. Correctly connect the water hose back to the valve.
Depending on the frequency of use of the machine, it is necessary to remove the waste material
produced by grinding from the entire working area. For cleaning, use only non-frayed rags. The
impurities can also be removed with a vacuum.
Before every start of the machine, always carry out a visual inspection to check that the power cable is
undamaged. Check the level of the cooling liquid and the state of the grinding wheel for wear
continuously. Refill the cooling liquid if the liquid level disappears from the level gauge on the left-hand
side of the tank.
Furthermore, check the V-belt tension. To access the belt drive space, remove the belt pulley cover in
the front part of the rotating arm (Figure 1).
Procedure for belt tensioning:
1. Loosen the four screws of the motor plate.
2. Tension the belt by pushing the motor body in the direction of the grinding machine column.
3. Tighten the screws of the motor plate.
