6. Commissioning
Before plugging in, check that the rated mains
voltage and mains frequency, as stated on the
rating label, match with your power supply.
Always install an RCD with a max. trip current
of 30 mA upstream.
Use only extension cables with a min. cross-section
2
of 1.5 mm
. Extension cables must correspond to
the power consumption of the machine (cf
Technical Specifications). If a cable roller is used,
always roll up the cable completely.
6.1
Attaching the additional handle
Always work with the additional handle (11)
attached! Manually screw in the additional
handle securely in the left, centre or right threaded
hole (depending on requirements).
6.2
Attach the safety guard
(for working with abrasive discs)
Prior to operation: Attach safety
guard.
For reasons of safety, the safety guard (12)
should always be attached when roughing
work is performed.
For reasons of safety, the special parting
guard should always be attached before
parting work is performed (see chapter 11.
Accessories).
See illustration F on page 2.
- Open quick-release clamp (15). Mount the safety
guard (12) in the position indicated.
- Turn the safety guard until the closed section is
facing the operator.

both sides and can be engaged.
- Make sure that it is securely positioned: the main
handle (10) must be engaged and it should not be
possible to move it.
6.4
Power-supply connection
The mains sockets must be protected using time-
delay fuses or circuit breakers.
Machines with "WE..." in the model designation:
(with inbuilt automatic startup-current limitation(soft
start).) The mains sockets can also be protected
using fast-acting fuses or circuit breakers.
7. Attaching the grinding disc
Prior to any conversion work: Pull the mains
plug from the socket. The machine must be
switched off and the spindle at a standstill.
For reasons of safety, attach the parting guard
before performing parting work (see chapter
11. Accessories).

turn the spindle (3) by hand until the spindle
locking button engages.

Placing the grinding wheel in position
See illustration D on page 2.
Machines with the designation W 2..., WE 2...:
- Fit the support flange (2) on the spindle. The
flange should not turn on the spindle when
properly attached.
- Position the grinding wheel on the support flange
(2) as shown in illustration D.
The grinding disc must lay flat on the supporting
flange.
Machines with the designation W...A 2...:
The Autobalancer support flange (4) is
permanently fitted on the spindle. As is the
