The grinder is equipped with the safety devices illustrated hereafter:
hey protect the operator from parts of the grinding wheel that may
come away during the sharpening process.
These guards must always be tted in place when the appliance is in use.
Always make sure the guards are efcient and tted properly. Operator safety could
be compromised if the guards are damaged and/or cracked.
the appliance features a safety switch with release coil. In the case of a
sudden power failure, the switch trips automatically and disconnects the appliance
from the mains. The appliance will not start even if the power supply is suddenly
restored. You need to reset the switch to start the appliance again.
This appliance is an electrical grinder for chains used in chain saws.
- Use the appliance exclusively for the types of chains stated in the technical data
chart.
- Do not use the appliance to cut or grind anything other than the chains envisaged.
- Secure the appliance rmly to the bench or wall.
- The appliance must not be used in corrosive or explosive environments.
-
The manufacturer is not liable for damages following improper or incorrect use of
the appliance.
The grinder is supplied already completely assembled.

Hold the grinding wheel up by its central hole. Knock the edge of the grinding wheel
gently with a metal object. If it makes a numb non-metallic noise it means
that the wheel could be damaged: do
Do not install the appliance at eye level. You are recommended to install it at a height
of no more than 1.2-1.3 meters off the oor.
The appliance can be bench mounted or wall mounted.
Use 2 M8 screws complete with washers and nuts (material supplied), inserted in the
securing holes F4. Make sure you position the base unit on the bench as illustrated
in the detail.
Use two dowels with relative screws complete with washers (material not supplied),
inserted in the securing holes F6.
Completely screw the operating handle I7 on the screw V7.
The chain must be completely inspected before sharpening it to make sure it is intact.

- Before you start to sharpen, you need to know the type of chain and the relative
adjustment angles. These characteristics are written in the owner’s manual of the
chain saw on which the chain is tted or on the chain pack.
- The chain identication code is usually written on the driving link.
- You can also identify the chain using a template or gauge.
- Consult the CHAIN CHART at the end of this manual.
The columns in this chart provide the following information:
÷ 2
Chain pitch
Driving link width
Top sharpening angle (vise rotation)
Cutting angle (arm rotation)
Down angle (vise inclination)
Gauge depth
Grinding wheel thickness
Grinding wheel code
Oregon chain codes Carlton chain codes
Windsor chain codes Stihl chain codes
SARP chain codes EM chain codes
a - Measure the gauge depth using the suitable shape.
b - Put the template on this side and measure the chain PITCH.
c - Put the template on this side to measure the cutter length.
d - The driving link width is measured using a suitable instrument (i.e. gauge).
- Use a grinding wheel suitable for the type of chain to be sharpened; consult the
chain chart at the end of the manual.
- Do not force the grinding wheel on the hub and do not alter the centering hole
diameter. Do not use grinding wheels that do not t perfectly in place.
- Use exclusively clean and perfect intact hub and ange to t the grinding wheel.
- Make sure the outside diameters of the hub and ange are identical.
- Loosen the screw V10 and turn the guard P10
- Remove the screw V8 and the ange F8 on the hub
- Choose the grinding wheel based on the type of chain to be sharpened (column H
in chain chart).
- Insert and perfectly center the grinding wheel in the dedicated seat on the hub
.
- Insert the ange F8 and tighten the screw V8 .
If the grinding wheel is tted with the anges too tight, it could break during
use and put the operator at risk. To avoid such risk, tighten screw M6x25
to (if possible, check with dynamometric spanner).
- Close the guard again P10 and tighten the relative screw V10 .
- Stand at the side of the grinding wheel, start the grinder and visually make sure
the grinding wheel does not oscillate sideways or crosswise, consequently causing
abnormal vibrations.
- If this should be the case, stop the appliance immediately and check if the grinding
wheel has been tted correctly. If necessary, replace the grinding wheel with another
original one.
Always check a freshly tted grinding wheel at working speed for at least one
minute before you start grinding, standing at a safe distance and making sure
nobody else approaches the appliance.
