Threatened hazard or hazardous situation. Not observing this instruction can lead to injuries or cause damage to property.

Important information on proper handling. Not observing this instruction can lead to faults in the machine.

User information. This information helps you to use all the functions optimally.

Assembly, operation and servicing. Here you are explained exactly what to do.

Characteristic noise values

Application of the machine as chain sharpener with standard grinding wheel.

Noise power level	Sound pressure level at the workplace
LWA=91 dB (A)	LPA=78 dB (A)

The values given are emission values and must therefore not simultaneously represent safe workplace values too. Although there is a relationship between emission and immersion levels, it can be reliably deduced whether additional precautionary measures are necessary or not. Factors, which can influence the immersion level currently existing at the workplace include the duration of the effects, the special type of the workroom, other noise sources, etc. e.g. the number of machines and other adjacent processes. The permissible workplace values can also vary from country to country. This information should however enable an improved assessment of the danger and risk to be carried out.

Working with the chain sharpener

Sharpening chains

Before making any settings to the device:

• switch off the device
• wait for the shutdown of the grinding wheel
• pull out main plug

Grinding all cutting links A - C

To grind the cutting edge of a cutting link, proceed as follows:

1. Setting the grinding angle: Loosen the locking nut (7) to turn the rotary plate to approx. 30^ and retighten the locking nut. A
   The cutting edges of the cutting links are normally ground at an angle between 30 and 35^ .
2. Loosen the mounting screw (3b) and place the cutting chain in the guide rail (6) between the guide plates (5). A
3. Fold the chain stop (4) down and pull the chain toward the back until the cutting link to be ground rests against the stop.
4. Pull the grinding head (13) against the cutting link for exact alignment. Set the distance with the help of the mounting screw (3a) so that the grinding wheel touches the cutting link. In addition, adjust the grinding depth with the setting screw (8). B
5. Tighten the mounting screw (3b) chain is fixed in place. B
6. Carefully grind the cutting edge of the cutting link.

To avoid damages to the chain, grind as briefly as possible and do not remove more material than necessary B

1. Grind every second cutting edge by performing steps 5 and 6.
   i Mark the first cutting link by a chalk mark or the like. This will help you avoid grinding cutting links twice.
2. Turn the rotary table to 30^ of the other side and grind the remaining cutting edges as described above. C

Setting the depth limit distance

Once all cutting edges of the cutting links have been sharpened, your chain will be sharp but may possible not cut. For this reason, a depth limit distance must always be observed (= distance between depth limit and cutting edge). This is usually 0.5 - 0.8 mm.

A depth limit distance that is too great represents a risk of kickback.

For this purpose, you must check the distance according to the specifications of your chain and file it off with a file if necessary.

! Be sure to chamfer the leading edge of your depth limiter. The original shape of the cutting link must be preserved.
