Frequently Asked Questions - DS 150/200 Herkules

How to change the grinding wheel on the Herkules DS 150/200?

The replacement of grinding wheels must be carried out by the manufacturer, its after-sales service, or a qualified person to avoid any risk. Do not attempt to replace the wheel yourself.

How to use the wet grinding function?

Check that the water tank contains enough water (the wet grinding wheel should be immersed by 1/3). Turn on the device, stand in front of the wet grinding wheel, hold the workpiece with both hands and gently lower it onto the wheel. You can also rest the workpiece on the ridges of the tank.

What is the power and operating mode?

The motor has a power of 250 W in S2 30 min operation, meaning it should not run for more than 30 minutes continuously at full load. After that, let it cool down.

How to adjust the spark deflector?

Use the adjustment screw to set the spark deflector so that the gap to the dry grinding wheel is less than 2 mm. Readjust periodically to compensate for wheel wear.

What types of blades can be sharpened with this device?

The grinder is designed for sharpening blades, scissors, flat end claws, and cutting tools. Use the dry grinding wheel for roughing and the wet grinding wheel for finishing.

How to clean and maintain the device?

Always unplug before cleaning. Use a damp cloth with a little soap. Do not use aggressive products. Clean the air slots and housing regularly. Avoid water ingress inside.

What are the important safety instructions?

Always wear hearing protection, a dust mask, and safety goggles. Do not work on materials containing asbestos. Ensure the device is stable and screwed onto a workbench.

How to order spare parts?

To order, specify the device type, article number, identification number, and spare part number. Prices and information are available at www.isc-gmbh.info.

What is the warranty period?

The warranty is 5 years for material and construction defects. Wear parts (grinding wheels) are guaranteed for 6 months. Consumables and missing parts must be reported within 24 hours or 5 working days.

How to store the device?

Warning!

The vibration value changes according to the area of application of the electric equipment and may exceed the specified value in exceptional circumstances.

Keep the noise emissions and vibrations to a minimum.

• Only use appliances which are in perfect working order.
  • Service and clean the appliance regularly.
  • Adapt your working style to suit the appliance.
  • Do not overload the appliance.
• Have the appliance serviced whenever necessary.
  • Switch the appliance off when it is not in use.
  • Wear protective gloves.

5. Before starting the equipment

Before you connect the equipment to the mains supply make sure that the data on the rating plate are identical to the mains data.

Always pull the power plug before making adjustments to the equipment.

• The machine must be set up so that it stands firmly, i.e. it must be securely screwed to a work bench or similar.
• All covers and safety devices have to be properly fitted before the equipment is switched on.
• It must be possible for the grinding wheel to run freely.

5.1 Assembling the spark defl ector (Fig. 1/3/4/5)

Fit the spark defl ector (3) to the safety hood (4) using the screws (10), as shown in Fig. 4.

Adjust the spark defl ector (3) using the adjusting screw (11) so that the distance between the dry grinding wheel (5) and the spark defl ector (3) is as small as possible and certainly does not exceed 2 mm.

Adjust the spark defl ector (3) periodically to compensate for wear on the wheel.

GBR

5.2 Assembling the workpiece support (Fig. 2/6)

Fit the workpiece support (7) to the workpiece support holder (15) using the workpiece support fastening screw (6), washer (12), lock washer (13) and workpiece support locking knob (14), as shown in Fig. 6.

6. Operation

6.1 On/Off switch (1)

To switch on the equipment set the On/Off switch (1) to position 1.

Move the On/Off switch (1) to position 0 to switch off the equipment.

After switching on, wait for the equipment to reach its maximum speed of rotation. Only then should you begin with the grinding.

6.2 Dry grinding

- Place the workpiece onto the workpiece support (7) and slowly guide the workpiece towards the grinding wheel (5) at the desired angle to the point where workpiece and grinding wheel make contact.

- Move the workpiece slightly back and forth to produce an optimal grinding result. This way the grinding wheel (5) will be evenly worn. Allow the workpiece to cool down occasionally.

6.3 Wet grinding

Before beginning with the wet grinding, check that there is enough water in the water container (9) (a third of the wet grinding wheel must be standing in water!). Switch on the grinder with the On/Off switch (1) and stand in front of the wet grinding wheel. Grip the workpiece with both hands and lower it carefully onto the wet grinding wheel. You can also rest the workpiece on the teeth on the water container and lower it onto the grinding wheel.

6.4 Changing the grinding wheel

If the grinding wheel for this equipment becomes damaged or worn, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its after-sales service or similarly trained personnel in order to avoid danger.

7. Replacing the power cable

If the power cable for this equipment is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its after-sales service or similarly trained personnel to avoid danger.

8. Cleaning, maintenance and ordering of spare parts

Always pull out the mains power plug before starting any cleaning work.

8.1 Cleaning

• Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it with compressed air at low pressure.
  • We recommend that you clean the device immediately each time you have finished using it.
• Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents; these could attack the plastic parts of the equipment. Ensure that no water can seep into the device. The ingress of water into an electric tool increases the risk of an electric shock.

Dear Customer,

In the unlikely event that your device develops a fault, we are truly sorry for this, and suggest that you please contact our service department at the address shown on this guarantee card, or contact the nearest authorised DIY store. Please note the following terms, under which guarantee claims can be made:

1. These guarantee terms cover additional guarantee rights and do not affect your statutory warranty rights. We do not charge you for this guarantee.
2. Our guarantee only covers problems caused by material or manufacturing defects, and it is restricted to the rectification of these defects or replacement of the device. Please note that our devices have not been designed for use in commercial, trade or industrial applications. Consequently, the guarantee is invalidated if the equipment is used in commercial, trade or industrial applications or for other equivalent activities.

This applies in particular to rechargeable batteries for which we nevertheless issue a guarantee period of 12 months. The guarantee is rendered null and void if any attempt is made to tamper with the device.
3. The guarantee is valid for a period of 5 years starting from the purchase date of the device. Guarantee claims should be submitted before the end of the guarantee period within two weeks of the defect being noticed. No guarantee claims will be accepted after the end of the guarantee period. The original guarantee period remains applicable to the device even if repairs are carried out or parts are replaced. In such cases, the work performed or parts fitted will not result in an extension of the guarantee period, and no new guarantee will become active for the work performed or parts fitted. This also applies when an on-site service is used.
4. In order to assert your guarantee claim, please send your defective device postage-free to the address shown below. Please enclose either the original or a copy of your sales receipt or another dated proof of purchase. Please keep your sales receipt in a safe place, as it is your proof of purchase.
