SAFETY INFORMATION
FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY READ THIS OPERATOR’S
MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING GRINDER
Keep this manual for future reference. To
ensure the correct use of the grinder and to
prevent accidents, do not start working without
having read this manual carefully. The manual
explains how the various components work
and provides instructions for carrying out the
necessary checks and maintenance operations.
SAFETY RULES AND PRECAUTIONS
WARNING The use of accessories or
attachments not recommended by the
manufacturer may result in a risk of injury to
operator or bystander. Any maintenance operation
not described in this manual must only be
carried out by an AUTHORIZED service center.
CAUTION The following instructions
should be carefully followed in order to

ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES
AND GLOVES
Always wear gloves and protective eyewear
while operating the grinder and while retouching
the grinding wheel using the dressing stone.
Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation
is dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact
resistant lenses, they are NOT safety glasses.
NEVER STOP THE WHEEL WITH YOUR HANDS
Never attempt to stop the rotation of the
grinding wheel with your hands.
DISCONNECT TOOLS BEFORE SERVICING
Make sure the plug is disconnected when tting
or changing the grinding wheel and during any
other operation of maintenance or transport.
KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE AND
IN WORKING ORDER
Never start the grinder without
the wheel guards in place.
REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES
Make sure that keys and adjusting wrenches
are removed from tool before turning it on.
DON’T FORCE TOOL
It will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed. Each
grinder has a plate indicating:
– Size of arbor: Ø .866" (22 mm)
– No-load speed in revolutions
per minute: RPM 3150
– Always read operator’s manual
before operating the machine
– Always wear eye and face protection
– Always use the proper grinding wheel
Also make sure that the voltage and frequency
indicated on the plate applied to the grinder
correspond to those of the mains hook-up.
REDUCE THE RISK OF
UNINTENTIONAL STARTING
Always make sure that the start-up
switch is in the “0” (OFF) position before
connecting the plug to the outlet.
NEVER USE CABLES, PLUGS OR
EXTENSION CABLES THAT ARE
DEFECTIVE OR NON-STANDARD
See “Minimum Extension Cord Gauges” table
on page 12 Remove the plug from the mains
immediately if the cable is damaged or cut;
for cable repair or replacement, contact your
authorized dealer or service center. The power
supply cable is complete with terminals – with
protection. The internal electrical connection
consists of inserting the feeding cable terminals
directly in the switch. The electrical connection
to the mains shall be made in such a way as
to prevent damage by people or vehicles
which could endanger both them and you.
KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN
Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents.
Make sure that the grinding wheel working
area is free of tools or other objects before
starting up the grinder. Frequently clean
grinding dust from beneath grinder.
DON’T USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS
Don’t use power tools in damp or wet locations, or
expose them to rain. Keep work area well-lighted.
CHECK THE POSITION OF THE
CABLE DURING OPERATION
Make sure that the cable remains outside
the range of action of the grinding wheel
and is not under tension. Never operate in
the vicinity of other electrical cables.
DIRECTION OF FEED
Feed work into a blade or cutter against
the direction of rotation of the blade or
cutter only. Never advance the chain with
your left hand until the grinding wheel has
moved entirely outside the work area.
MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD PROOF
Use padlocks, master switches. Do not
allow anyone but the user to remain in the
vicinity of the grinder while it is operating
or to touch the grinder supply cable.
ALWAYS KEEP THE HAND GRIPS
CLEAN AND DRY
SECURE GRINDING WHEEL
Make sure the grinding wheel is secured
before starting the grinder. Do not
over-tighten the wheel nut.
SECURE WORK
Make sure that the machine is stable
and rmly secured. Use the vise to hold
chain. This frees both hands for moving
the wheel down to grind the chain.
DON’T OVERREACH
Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
NEVER STAND ON TOOL
Always work in a stable and safe position. Serious
injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if the
cutting tool is unintentionally contacted.
ALWAYS FOLLOW MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS
Before using the grinder, check to make sure
that all the devices, those for safety and others,
are in good working order. A guard, a wheel or
other part that is damaged should be carefully
checked to determine that it will operate properly
and perform its intended function – check for
alignment of moving parts, binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other
conditions that may aect its operation. A guard,
a wheel or other part that is damaged should
be properly repaired or immediately replaced.
USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES
Consult the operator’s manual for recommended
accessories. The use of improper accessories may
cause risk of injury to persons. Use only anges
furnished with the grinder. To guarantee the
ecient and consistent operation of your grinder,
remember that any worn or broken parts must
only be replaced using ORIGINAL SPARE PARTS.
USE ONLY RECOMMENDED GRINDING WHEELS
CHECK YOUR MACHINE
Never work with a damaged, poorly repaired,
incorrectly tted, or arbitrarily modied grinder. Do
not remove, damage, or disable any safety device.
USE THE RIGHT TOOL
Never use the grinder as a cutter or for
grinding objects other than saw chains.
Don’t force tool or attachment to do a
job for which it was not designed.
EXPERT USERS ONLY
Only lend your grinder to expert users who
are familiar with its operation and correct
use, and always give them the operator’s
manual to read before they start a job.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE
Keep tools sharp and clean for best and
safest performance. Follow instructions for
lubricating and changing accessories.
STORE YOUR GRINDER IN A DRY PLACE
Keep it o the ground and out
of the reach of children.
NEVER LET YOUR GRINDER BE
EXPOSED TO RAIN OR DAMPNESS
NEVER USE THE GRINDER IN AN EXPLOSIVE
OR INFLAMMABLE ATMOSPHERE
TAKE THE GRINDER TO YOUR DEALER
When your grinder is not in working order, do not
abandon it on the work site or elsewhere. Take it to
your dealer who will store or dispose of it correctly.
CONSULT YOUR DEALER
Always consult your dealer for any clarication
or important maintenance or repair operation.
NEVER JERK THE CABLE TO DISCONNECT
IT FROM THE OUTLET
Keep the cable away from heat,
oil, and sharp objects.
USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD
Make sure your extension cord is in good
condition. When using an extension cord, be
sure to use one heavy enough to carry the
current your product will draw. An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating.

PLACING THE CHAIN IN THE VISE
– Clean the chain before sharpening it.
– Check the cutters and nd the one with the most damage, you will want to start with this cutter.
– Ensure chain is placed in vise as shown, cutter direction heading toward right.
SETTING THE CHAIN STOP
Put the chain in the vise (14).
Slide a chain cutter up against the chain stop (10).
Turn the adjustment knob (9) to position the chain
stop (10) laterally to the center of the cutter.
POSITIONING THE CUTTER
Move the grinding wheel onto the cutter
to be sharpened by pulling the motor
unit (A) downwards using handle (E).
Turn the cutter adjustment knob (8) to move
the chain so that the cutter cutting edge
skims the grinding wheel (K). The chain should
run freely over the vise (14) throughout this
procedure but without any clearance.

Raise the motor unit (A) using handle (E).
Turn the cutter adjustment knob (8)
clockwise, to slightly move the cutter
to be sharpened further forwards.
This forward movement corresponds to
the quantity of material to be ground from
the cutter. The more dull or damaged the
cutters, the greater this forward movement
should be. For cutters that are not too dull,
simply grind a slight amount of material.
It is also important not to grind too much material
in one pass. This could result in “burning” the cutter,
reducing its hardness, and causing excessive burrs.
Turn cutter sharpening depth adjustment
knob (5) to adjust the cutter sharpening
depth. The grinding wheel (K) should skim
the bottom of the cutter vertically.
Once you have found the exact position of
the cutter, pull the vise handle (13) to the
right to tighten the vise jaws (14). You are
now ready to begin sharpening your chain.
