Any other use has to be discussed with the manufacturer.
In order to avoid misuse, it is necessary to read and understand the operating instructions
before first commissioning.
Operators must be qualified.
1.3.1

Avoiding misuse

WARNING!
Risk of injury caused by flying workpieces.
Ensure the gap between the grinding wheel and bearing surface is as small as possible and
readjust the support surface immediately if the distance is too big. The distance from the sup-
porting surface to the grinding wheel may not be less than 2 mm. However, the distance may
be greater if the grinding process and the material used require this for security reasons.
If the support surface can no longer be adjusted, the grinding wheel must be replaced.
The direction of rotation of the grinding machine must be in the direction of the contact surface
or the stop on belt grinder device. If the phase sequence is not used correctly, it is possible to
operate the grinding machine in the wrong direction of rotation.
Pay attention to the current direction of rotation of the grinding machine to prevent the spin-up
of workpieces at the start of grinding.
We expressly point out that the guarantee will expire, if any constructive, technical or proce-
dural changes are not performed by the company Optimum Maschinen Germany GmbH.
WARNING!
Risk of injury caused by flying workpieces. Injuries caused by sharp-edged workpieces.
Injuries caused by hot workpieces. Wear protective gloves and goggles. For certain
materials it may be necessary to wear face protection instead of safety glasses.
Make sure that the support surface on the grinder and the belt sander for the workpiece are
firmly clamped.
