Operating manual tire grooving machine
1. The tire regrooving machine is mainly used for cutting tread patterns into tires.
2. It may only be used with AC electrical supply as stated on the type-plate.
3. As it is pressed against the tire to be regrooved, the blade will automatically be heated. In order to
cut zig-zag patterns, the pressure should be released while turning the blade.
4. Allowing the blade to glow while not being in contact with the tire may damage the blade and should
be avoided.
5. Cutting should be executed quickly. Smoke or smouldering rubber are an indication that the cutting is
being executed too slowly or that the power setting is on too high.
6. Blades must be fastened with clamps on the cutting head. If the clamps are in the normal position all standard
size blades can be fastened. Extraordinary large blades can be fastened easily by turning the clamps.
7. In order to ensure a good electrical contact, the clamps of the cutting-head should be cleaned with a
suitable solvent from time to time. Poor blade heating and increased cutting resistance are signs of bad
electrical contact.
8. The transformer has four power settings. Each original blade box shows the numbers of the most favorable
power setting for enclosed blades. If the machine is set to "0" it is ready to use, yet functions without any output.
9. If the machine is not being used for a length of time, it should be disconnected from the power supply.
10. If it is in use for some time, the cable connecting the cutting-head to the transformer may get hot which
is normal.
11. Do not remove the type-plate from the tool. The technical data on the plate is important and the removal of
the plate will terminate the product warranty.
12. Only use original blades to ensure the best results.
13. Careless usage could result in fire.
14. The tire grooving machine must be used with caution near combustible material.
15. Do not use in an explosive atmosphere.
16. Allow device to cool off before storage.
17. Do not allow the hot blade to come into contact with the supply cable or other combustible materials.
18. Do not use in damp or wet conditions.
19. If the cables or any other parts of the tire regroover require attention, they must be replaced or serviced by
ither the manufacturer, its agent or similar qualified people to avoid any safety hazards.
20. Technical data: 220V - 240V ~ 50/60Hz / 240W
