6. Initial Operation

6.1 Transport
During transport (9), the bench grinder must be
lifted and carried from the handling points marked
on page 3.
6.2 Connection to Power Mains
Before commissioning, check that the rated
mains voltage and mains frequency stated on
the type plate match your power supply.
The grinder complies with protection class I and
must therefore only be connected to sockets
earthed according to specifications.
Always install an RCD with a maximum trip
current of 30 mA upstream.
DSD 200 Plus (three-phase version):
Ensure that the grinding wheels have the correct
direction of rotation (the correct direction of rotation
is indicated by an arrow on the side safety guards).
If a grinding wheel is rotating in the wrong direction:
Unplug the grinder. The plug comprises of two
phase conducting pins that are mounted on a
rotating socket (phase changing switch). Use a
Phillips screwdriver to rotate this socket.
6.3 Installing workpiece support
Install workpiece support (10) as shown in
illustrations A, page 2.
6.4 Fitting spark deflector and eye
preservers
Install the spark deflector (13) and eye preservers
(11) as shown in illustrations B, page 2.
6.5 Only if required: Set BS 200 Plus, BS 200
to a different band length (1000 mm or 1020
mm)
See page 3, fig. F.
Removing the sanding belt (see Section 8.2).
Loosen screw (a) and unscrew until the sleeve (b)
can be moved. By moving the upper sanding belt
roll, move the sleeve (b) until the stop and insert the
screw (a) back in completely.
6.6 Installing machine safely
Place the machine on a stable workbench. Ensure
that the machine is securely seated.
The machine can also be bolted down (screws not
included in the scope of delivery). To do this, fasten
the securing screws through the holes in the rubber
feet.
If a stand or wall bracket is used (see Accessories
chapter): bolt down the machine.

6.7 Dust extraction connection (depending
on features)
If your machine is not equipped with a dust
extraction connection (7), fit an extraction device
that is suitable for bench grinders. Inner diameter of
extraction connection piece: 35 mm. Outer
diameter of extraction connection piece: 41 mm.
Before switching on the machine, ensure that the
extraction device is connected and being used
correctly.
6.8 Test run
Check the sanding discs before initial use.
Test run
A test run of approx. 5 min without load must
be carried out before initial use. All persons must
stay clear of the danger zone when this is
performed.
. 7. Use
7.1 Adjusting the workpiece support
Adjust the workpiece supports (10) frequently to
compensate for wear of the sanding discs (4).
The workpiece support must always be adjusted in
such a way that the angle between the workpiece
support and the tool is always greater than 85°.
The distance between the workpiece support and
grinding material must be as small as possible and
never greater than 2 mm (see illustration C, page 2).
If the sanding disc is so badly worn that the
maximum distance of 2 mm can no longer be
maintained, the sanding disc must be replaced.
7.2 Adjusting the spark deflector
Adjust the spark deflectors (13) regularly to
compensate for wear on the grinding wheels (4).
Release the 2 screws on the spark deflector and
shift the spark deflector.
The distance between the spark deflector and
grinding wheel must be as small as possible and
never greater than 2 mm (see illustration C, page 2).
If the sanding disc is so badly worn that the
maximum distance of 2 mm can no longer be
maintained, the sanding disc must be replaced.
7.3 Switching on and off
Press the switch (14) (see illustrations D, page 2).
I = Switch on
0 = Switch off
Avoid inadvertent starts: always switch the tool off
when the plug is removed from the mains socket or
if there has been a power cut.
Restart protection (for DS 200 Plus): When
power is restored after a power failure, the machine
- which is still switched on - will not start
automatically for safety reasons. Switch machine
on and off again.
7.4 Belt grinding
- Stand in front of the grinder.
