• The rotating grinding wheel may cause injuries of fingers
and hands.
• Danger caused by electric current if inappropriate
electrical connecting lines are used.
• Furthermore, non obvious residual risks may exist in
spite of all measures taken.
• Residual risks can be minimized by carefully observing
the safety instructions and the intended use as well as
the entire operating instructions.
Upon delivery, the machine is completely assembled and
is, thus, ready to work immediately.
Installation and Adjustment
Please make sure that your grinding machine is installed
in an upright and stable manner on a firm ground with
sufficient illumination.
The machine has no front or rear side. You can alternatively
grind with or against the direction of rotation.
Electrical Connection
The installed electric motor is connected and is ready to
work.
The connection complies with the relevant VDE and DIN
regulations.
The connection to the mains supply on the customer side and
the used extension line must meet these regulations or the
provisions of the local power supply company.
Grounding instructions
1.All grounded, cord-connected tools
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current to
reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped
with an electric cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided – if it will not fit the
outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The
conductor with insulation having an outer surface that
is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-
grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the
electric cord plug is necessary, do not connect the
equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel
if the grounding instructions are not completely

understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is
properly grounded.
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding plugs and 3 pole receptacles that accept the
tools plug.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.
2.Grounded, cord-connected tools intended for use on a
supply circuit having a nominal rating less than 150
Volts:
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an
outlet that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A
in Figure 1. A temporary adapter, which looks like the
adapter illustrated in sketch B and C, may be used to
connect this plug to a 2 pole receptacle as shown in
sketch B if a properly grounded outlet is not available.
The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified
electrician. This adapter is not applicable in Canada.
The green-coloured rigid ear, lug, and the like, extending
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box.
3.Grounded, cord-connected tools intended for use on
a supply circuit having a nominal rating between 150
– 250 Volts, inclusive.
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an
outlet that looks like the one illustrated in sketch D in
Figure 1. Make sure the tool is connected to an outlet
having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter
is available or should be used with this tool. If the tool
must be reconnected for use on a different type of
circuit, the reconnection should be made by qualified
service personnel; and after reconnection, the tool
should comply with all local codes and ordinances.
Defective Electric Connection Lines
Often, insulation damages occur on electrical connection
lines.
The possible causes are:
• Drag marks if connection lines are led through window or
door clearances.
• Kinks due to improper attachment or routing of the
connection line.
• Cuts caused by running over the connection line.
• Insulation damages caused by pulling the connection
line out of the wall socket.
• Fissures caused by the aging of the insulation. Such
defective electrical connection lines must not be
used and are, due to the insulation damages, life
threatening!
Regularly check the electrical connection lines for
damages. Please make sure that the connection lines are
disconnected from the mains supply during the check.
