1.1 Preface to the operating instructions
These operating instructions are intended to make it easy to learn how to use the Universal
Wet-Sharpening Machine, hereafter referred to as the grinding machine, and to properly utilize
its features.
These operating instructions contain important notes on how to operate the grinding machine
safely, properly, and efficiently. Observing these instructions helps to avoid hazards, reduce repair
costs and downtimes, and to increase the reliability and service life of the grinding machine.
The operating instructions must always be stored in the location that the grinding machine is
used.
The operating instructions must be read and applied by every person tasked with working with
the grinding machine, e.g.:
• transport, installation, commissioning
• operation, including error rectification during operation, as well as
• servicing (maintenance, repair).
Recognized technical standards for safe and professional work must be observed in addition to
these operating instructions and the binding accident prevention regulations applicable in the
country of use and at the place of use.
1.2 Warnings and symbols in the operating instructions
The operating instructions use the following symbols/designations that must be followed:
The hazard triangle with the signal word “CAUTION” serves as a work
safety notice for all work for which there is a risk of personal injury or
death.
In these cases, work should be done with special attention and care.
ATTENTION
“ATTENTION” is written in places where special attention must be paid to
prevent damage or destruction of the grinding machine or its surroundings.
NOTE “NOTICE” refers to user tips and especially useful informations.

1.3 Warning signs and their meaning
1.3.1 Warning and mandatory signs on/in the grinding machine
The following warnings and mandatory signs have been affixed on/in the grinding machine:
CAUTION! DANGEROUS ELECTRICAL VOLTAGE
(warning sign on switch housing)
The grinding machine carries life-threatening voltage when it is
connected to the current supply.
Current-carrying device parts may only be opened by authorized
personnel.
The grinding machine must be separated from the mains supply
before carrying out servicing, maintenance and repair work on it.
CAUTION! RISK OF INJURY FROM ABRASIVE PARTICLES
(mandatory sign on machine front)
Grinding, polishing, deburring and dressing gives rise to grinding
particles which can enter the eyes.
Wearing eye protection is mandatory when carrying out such
work.
1.3.2 General mandatory signs
The following general mandatory signs must be followed:
CAUTION! RISK OF INJURY FROM KNIFE
Working with the grinding machine involves grinding knives that
could cause serious cut injuries due to their sharpness.
Protective gloves must be worn when clamping and releasing
knives.
Caution when transporting blades. Use the protective equipment
provided by the knife manufacturer. Protective gloves and safety
shoes must be worn.

1.4 Rating plate and machine serial number
The rating plate (1-1/1) is located on the rear
panel of the machine.
The machine serial number can be found on the
rating plate and on the right side wall underneath
the wet-grinding belt.
1.5 Figure and position numbers in the operating instructions
If the text makes a reference to a machine component depicted in a figure, the figure and posi-
tion number will be given in parentheses.
Example: (6-2/1) means figure number 6-2, position 1.
Check the direction of rotation of the finned brushes.
The direction arrow (6-2/1) indicates the direction of
rotation of the wet-grinding belt and finned brushes.
If the finned brushes are rotating in the right direction,
then the direction of rotation of the grinding wheel and
of the wet-grinding belt is also correct.
If the finned brushes are rotating in the wrong direction,
have the phase reversed by a qualified electrician.
