• Only use the water tank for its intended purpose. • Use a customised dust extractor when dry grinding, such as HTC D26, D30, D55 or larger. • Always tip up the machine after grinding when removing glue or when wet grinding so that the machine does not stick to the floor and damage machine parts upon restart.

Introduction The HTC 500 can be used for wet and dry grinding of marble, terrazzo, granite and concrete. It can be used for both abrasive grinding and polishing. NOTE: The machine may only be operated or repaired by personnel who have undergone the requisite practical and theoretical training.
Description of the machine The machine is built of a number of main components, such as motor, rotating grinding unit, fre- quency converter, operator panel, chassis, handle bar and wheels. The HTC 500 is available in two motor options; 115V or 400V.

Mounting/dismantling of grinding discs Take the following safety measures when mounting grinding discs: • Remove any weights. • Disconnect the power supply and the power cable. Tip the machine up, and remove the old grinding discs using the enclosed special tool, see pic- ture.
Remember that the grinding tools can be extremely hot if grinding work has recently been carried out. The HTC 500 is equipped with our newly patented and copyright protected EZchange™ tool system. It consists of wings with diamond tools. These wings are folded and pushed into a tool holder where they are locked using a light blow from a non-rebounding rubber hammer.
Operation The following section describes how to operate and use the grinding machine. The section does not deal with the technical aspects of grinding such as choice of grinding tool etc. For selection of tool, see the Grinding Guide from HTC. NOTE: Only personnel with the requisite training may operate the machine.

Appendix, soft start HTC 500 HTC 500 Soft start is a more basic model. The difference lies in the soft start only having one speed instead of being infinitely variable as is the case with the frequency controlled machines. The soft start gives the HTC 500 a fixed speed, see technical data. The control panel consists of four buttons.
