SAFETY
WARNING! Read all instructions. Failure to follow all in-
structions listed below may result in electric shock, fi re
and/or serious injury.
• Check the following:
• Does the voltage rating of the bench grinder cor-
respond to the power supply?
• Is an earthed mains power socket available?
• Are the power cord and plug in good condition (sol-
id, without fraying or other damage)?
• Avoid the use of long extension cords. The extension
cords you use must always be earthed.
• A grinding wheel is a brittle toolpiece. The stone is
not resistant to knocks. Always grind on the front
edge of the grinding wheel, and never on the side
of the grinding wheel. Never fi t a cracked grinding
wheel. Replace it immediately, as the high rotational
speed could cause the stone to fl y apart, causing a
serious accident.
• Always wear safety glasses when grinding.
• Never grind without the cover fi tted over the grinding
wheel.
• Always fi t the grinding wheel cover and tool rest
tightly, and with the correct clearance.
• Never allow more than 1-1.5 mm clearance between
tool rest and grinding wheel.
• Only use the grinding wheel for the work it was de-
signed for (for example sharpening tools), and NOT
for heavy construction work. The following informa-
tion must be available, before you fi t any new grind-
ing wheel:
• Details about the manufacturer.
• Binding material.
• Dimensions.
• Permissible rotational speed.
• Never ream out the hole in a grinding wheel to a
larger diameter.
• The maximum rotational speed of the grinding wheel
should never be allowed to exceed the maximum
speed given for the wheel.
• Never use any grinding wheel that is damaged or
deformed.
• In order to be able to grind safely, the machine must
be fi rmly bolted to a workbench.
• Check that the switch is NOT in the 'ON/I' position
before connecting the machine to the power supply.

• Always keep the power cord out of the way of the
tool's moving parts.
• The grinder must be fi rmly bolted to a workbench.
The length of the fi xing bolts will depend on the thick-
ness of the workbench. If the workbench is made of
steel, it is advisable to use a wooden block or plank
between the grinder and the bench, to insulate it and
prevent vibration.
Immediately switch off the machine whenever:
• The plug or power cord is defective or damaged.
•The switch is defective.
• You smell smoke or burning insulation.
When replacing power cords or plugs
Immediately dispose of old plugs as soon as they are
replaced with new ones. It is dangerous to plug a loose
power cord into the mains power supply.
When using extension cords
• The grinder is fi tted with a triple-core power cord
and an earthed mains plug. Therefore always use
a mains power socket that is also earthed. Should
you need an extension cord, always use a triple-core
extension with earthed plug and socket.
• The cores should have a cross-section of at least 1.5
mm

MAINTENANCE
Make sure that the machine is not live when
carrying out maintenance work on the motor.
Regularly clean the machine housing with a soft cloth,
preferably after each use. Keep the ventilation slots free
from dust and dirt.If the dirt does not come off use a soft
cloth moistened with soapy water. Never use solvents
such as petrol, alcohol, ammonia water, etc. These sol-
vents may damage the plastic parts.
The machine requires no additional lubrication.
Should a fault occur, e.g. after wear of a part, please
contact your local SBM Group dealer.
ENVIRONMENT
In order to prevent the machine from damage during
transport, it is delivered in a sturdy packaging. Most of
the packaging materials can be recycled. Take these
materials to the appropriate recycling locations. Take
your unwanted machines to your local SBM Group
dealer. Here they will be disposed of in an environmen-
tally safe way.
