Operation - Scheppach Tiger 3000Vs Original Bedienungsanleitung

9.4.2 Fitting the side mount
• The two star grip screws (3) for the side mount for
workpiece support (15) are pre-assembled.
• To mount the workpiece support (1) here, insert the
workpiece support into the holes in the side mount
for workpiece support (15).
• The workpiece support (1) is now fixed for the first
step.
9.5 Installing the water tank (Fig. 6 + 7)
• Attach the water tank (8) in the lowest position to the
brackets for the water tank (16) (behind the grind-
stone) on the machine housing (5). (Fig. 6)
• Then fill the tank with water up to the recess. (Fig. 7)

10. Operation

m ATTENTION
Always make sure the device is fully assembled
before commissioning!
ATTENTION!
Remove the mains plug before any maintenance, mod-
ification and assembly work.
10.1 Grinding direction (Fig. 4 + 5)
This primarily depends on whether you wish to work
with or against the grinding direction.
If you wish to remove large quantities of steel quickly
(e.g. from very old, rusty tools) or if you want to grind
coarse tools such as axes, it is advisable to work
against the grinding direction.
If you wish to grind more accurately, we recommend
working with the grinding direction. This applies, for ex-
ample, when grinding tools and blades.
Please note that the grinding process is slowed down
when you work with the direction of rotation. Please
check before each operation that the surface of the
grindstone is flat. To do this, lower the workpiece sup-
port onto the stone and turn it manually through 360°.
If necessary, break off uneven material with a stone
cutter.

10.2 Water tank (Fig. 7)
• Fill the water tank with water up to the recess. The
grindstone absorbs water; top up water if necessary.
Do not perform grinding without water. Since the
diameter of the grindstone decreases with the num-
ber of grinding operations, the grindstone (12) will
no longer touch the water in the water tank (8). The
grindstone can no longer absorb water. If necessary,
the water tank (8) must be placed in the upper holder
for the water tank (16).
• When the grinding process is complete, lower the
water tank to prevent the grindstone from remaining
in the water for an extended period of time.
• Empty the water tank regularly. Otherwise steel par-
ticles and grinding dust will accumulate in the reser-
voir and compact.
• Expert tip: Such accumulations can be avoided by
placing a magnet in the water.
10.3 Angle gauge (Fig. 8)
Measure the angle of the workpiece by comparing the
cutting edge with the notches. Then set the determined
angle on the device by changing the height of the work-
piece support. To do so, perform the following steps:
• First clamp the tool in the device and place the de-
vice on the workpiece support
• Then hold the protractor with the desired angle to
the tool tip.
• Now adjust the height of the workpiece support
so that the front end of the protractor lies directly
against the grindstone. Please make sure that the
protractor is always aligned with the tool tip.
• Note: The values indicated on the protractor are
only guidelines. You can naturally change these val-
ues according to your requirements.
10.4 Grinding (Fig. 9) with the fixture for chisel
Since the grindstone rotates only slowly, it is possible
to detect movement in a lateral direction. This is normal
and has no negative influence on the grinding result.
Expert tip: New tools still show traces of the produc-
tion process. You can significantly extend the service
life of your tools if you grind them on both sides of the
cutting edge before the first use. Simply grind the back
in freehand mode on the vertical of the grindstone and
the front as follows:
• After you have adjusted the angle, insert the tool
mounted in the device into the universal holder,
switch on the engine and start the grinding process.
• Press the tool evenly onto the grindstone near the
cutting edge and move it laterally across the stone.
