Installation
4 .6 Bench-mount the machine
An alternative to having the grinder on a stand is to
bench-mount the machine .
Bench-mounting offers you flexibility and the ability
to sharpen chains virtually anywhere using the
electrical from any wall outlet or use of a 12V power
source .
WARNING Put the power converter where
there is as little dust as possible and out of reach of
sparks from the machine .
2mm
If the machines are not being used with the stand
and the pneumatic tensioner, it should be used with
the weight tensioner in order to provide the chain
with the tension needed for grinding . The weight
tensioner is available separately for purchase (see
section 8, "Accessories and Spare Parts") .

4 .7 Install and center the grinding wheel
The first step in preparing the grinder for use is
installing and centering the appropriate grinding
wheel .
The grinder comes with 2 wheel sizes: 3 .2 mm
(1/8") and 5 mm (3/16") . These wheels are 150 mm
(5 7/8") in diameter with 16 mm (5/8") arbor size .
It is critical to select the wheel of the appropriate
thickness for each chain .
The correct wheel size for a particular Markusson
saw chain can be found in several sources: this
manual, the back of the Markusson chain packaging,
Markusson Maintenance and Safety Manual, or
online at Markusson .se
WARNING Inspect the grinding wheel and
make sure that it is not cracked or damaged . There
is a simple test (called the "ring test") that you can
do to check for damage to a grinding wheel . Hold
the grinding wheel up by its center hole . Knock the
edge of the grinding wheel gently with a non-metallic
object (like the plastic handle of a screwdriver) . If the
grinding wheel makes a dull, non-metallic noise,
then the wheel could be damaged . DO NOT USE IT .
CRACKED GRINDING WHEELS MUST BE
REPLACED IMMEDIATELY . See also section 6 .3,
"Change the grinding wheel and fit the grinding
wheel guard" .
Once the grinding wheel has been verified, you're
ready to begin the install .
