Assembly
Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains
plug.
– Use suitable screws to fix the power tool to the workbench /
worktop at the 4 holes 7 provided.
Mounting the Spark Guard/Workpiece Support
(see figures A–D)
Use the power tool only with the spark guard 11 and
swivel the spark guard down as far as possible. Escap-
ing sparks can injure your eyes or set fire to surrounding
objects.
Use the power tool only with the workpiece support. Do
not interchange the right-hand and left-hand work-
piece supports 12. Otherwise the clearance between
workpiece support 12 and grinding wheel will be too large.
When the clearance is larger, you are not sufficiently pro-
tected against sparking. The workpiece can be drawn in by
the rotational motion of the grinding wheel and lead to in-
juries.
– Mount the holder for the spark guard 10 with the two
screws.
– Screw the spark guard 11 to the holder of the spark guard
10.
– Mount the workpiece support 12 as shown in the figure.
Regularly check the clearance between the workpiece
support 12 as well as the holder of the spark guard 10
GBG 60-20
to the grinding wheel, and readjust as required. The
clearance to the grinding wheel may not exceed 2 mm.
