Grinding a workpiece

jSwitch on the machine as described above.

jTo grind metal tools or metal items, place the workpiece on the workpiece/tool rest 5 and slowly bring it up to the grinding wheel 4 .

jPress the workpiece carefully against the grind- ing wheel 4 . Pressing too hard can overload the device. When grinding always use the cir- cumferential end face (not the sides) of the grinding wheel only (See Figures D, E, F).

2)Release the nut 13 and then remove the out- side flange 12 .

3)Now replace the grinding wheel and reassem- ble all the components in the reverse order. Take note that the left-hand side of the double grinding machine has a left-hand thread 11 and the right-hand side has a right-hand

thread. This ensures that the nuts can only be screwed off in the direction of rotation of the spindle.

jUse only the supplied flanges to mount the grinding wheels.

Note: The grinding wheels are fitted with a ½“ adapter so that they can be used with grinding wheels purchased later with either a ½“, or a 20 mm bore. Grinding wheels are available in various grit grades and hardnesses.

The central fixing holes in grinding wheels must not be redrilled.

Replacing a grinding wheel

Attention! Before carrying out any tasks on the device itself and when you are not using the de- vice, always pull the mains plug out of the mains socket.

JDo not use damaged grinding wheels.

JOnly use grinding wheels with details that cor- respond with those given on the device rating plate. The circumferential speed should be equal to or greater than the value given on the device rating plate.

jOnly grinding wheels with markings indicating the manufacturer, the type of adhesive, dimen- sions and permitted circumferential speed are to be used. If you install new grinding wheels carry out a ringing test before use. Grinding wheels in good condition give a clear ringing noise when struck lightly with a plastic hammer.

1)Take off the outer part of the wheel guard cov- er 7 by unscrewing the 3 threaded fixings (see Figs. N, O).

Original accessories / attachments

JUse only the accessories and attachments de- tailed in the operating instructions. The use of inserted tools or accessories other than those recommended in the operating instructions could lead to you suffering an injury.

Maintenance and cleaning

Attention! Before carrying out any tasks on the device itself and when you are not using the device, always pull the mains plug out of the mains socket.

The device is largely maintenance-free.

jClean the device frequently. For best results, clean the double grinding machine immediate- ly after you have finished using it.

jDo not allow any liquids to enter the device. Use a dry cloth to clean the device.

jDo not under any circumstances use petrol or
