Before Starting The Equipment - EINHELL TH-US 240 Originalbetriebsanleitung

Residual risks
Even if you use this electric power tool in
accordance with instructions, certain resi-
dual risks cannot be rules out. The following
hazards may arise in connection with the
equipment's construction and layout:
1. Lung damage if no suitable protective dust
mask is used.
2. Damage to hearing if no suitable ear protec-
tion is used.
3. Health damage caused by hand-arm vib-
rations if the equipment is used over a pro-
longed period or is not properly guided and
maintained.

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 pro-
perly 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)
•
Slide the spark deflector (3) under the safety
hood (4). Screw the spark deflector (3) to the
safety hood (4) using the adjustment screw
(10).
•
Use the screw (10) with the spring washer
(a), the washer (b) and the nut (c) which are
fastened to the spark deflector (3). To secure
you will need a screwdriver and a matching
open-ended spanner for holding steady on
the other side (Fig. 3).
•
Adjust the spark deflector (3) using the adjus-
ting screw (10) so that the distance between
the dry grinding wheel (5) and the spark de-
flector (3) is as small as possible and certain-
ly does not exceed 2 mm.
•
Adjust the spark deflector (3) periodically to
compensate for wear on the wheel.

5.2 Fitting the workpiece supports
(Fig. 1/6/6a/Item 7)
•
Secure the workpiece supports (7) to the grin-
der/sander using the star screws (6).
•
Push the screw (a) through the recess where
you want to fasten the workpiece support (7).
First mount the workpiece support (7), then
the washer (b) and the toothed washer (c).
Finally mount the star screw (6) and tighten.
5.3 Adjusting the workpiece supports (Fig. 7
/ Item 7)
•
Adjust the workpiece supports (7) using the
star screws (6) so that the distance between
the dry grinding wheel (5) and the workpiece
support (7) is as small as possible and cer-
tainly does not exceed 2 mm.
•
Adjust the workpiece supports (7) periodically
to compensate for wear on the dry grinding
wheel.
5.4. Changing the grinding wheel
(Figs. 1/8/9/10)
Remove the 3 screws (14) holding the grinding
wheel side guard (B) and take it off (Fig. 8). Then
remove the screws (14) holding the grinding belt
side guard (F) and take it off (Fig. 1). Slacken the
nut (Fig. 9/D) (important: the grinding/sanding
wheel is fastened with a left-handed thread)
by holding the nut (Fig. 9a/E) of the grinding/san-
ding belt roller on the opposite side. Then remove
the fl ange (C) and replace the grinding wheel (5).
The grinding wheel is mounted with the help of a
rag. Mount the fl ange (C) on the shaft and screw
on the nut (D) hand-tight (Fig. 10). To tighten the
nut (D), hold the grinding wheel (5) with a rag and
tighten the nut (D) (Fig. 10).
5.5. Changing the grinding/sanding belt (Fig.
1/11)
•
Undo the 3 screws (14) and remove the side
safety guard. Slacken the clamp screw for the
top belt roller (12) by a few turns.
•
Push the clamping lever (13) downwards and
pull the grinding/sanding belt off the rollers.
•
Place the new grinding/sanding belt (11) in
the center of the top and bottom rollers and
release the clamping lever (13).
•
Now tighten the clamp screw (12) and fit the
side safety guard.
•
With the belt guidance adjustment screw (15)
on the side you can adjust the belt run by
slackening the nut on the adjustment screw
of the belt guidance (15) and adjusting the
precision of the belt run with a screwdriver.
