1. TRANSPORT The circular knife sharpening machine RMS is delivered in a wooden box on pallet. The gross weight (incl. packing) of the machine is around 115 Kg. The transport takes place with pallet truck or forklift. 1.1 ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS Place the circular sharpening machine RMS only in dry rooms. Environmental temperature: from +5 to +50°C Humidity: up to 90%; not condensing 1.2 Move the pallet as close as possible to the final position of the machine. Then remove the screw joints between machine and pallet. Before placing the machine at its final position on the floor, screw in, the machine feet from below. Please pay attention that the machine is aligned horizontal on the floor. The alignment should be done by use of a bubble level (Standard model is sufficient). Place the bubble level on top of the cabinet and align in booth direction by adjusting the machine feet. Please pay attention, that the place of the machine grants a vibration free operation. 1.3 GENERAL SAFETY ADVICE Read the operating manual intensive! For damages caused by ignorance or not following the operating manual, no liability is assumed! When dealing with circular and shape knife greatest caution is needed, because this can have the sharpness of a razor and it can result in significant cuts if handled carelessly. To largely avoid these, the use of cut protection gloves is strongly recommended. 1.4 ...

4. OPERATION 4.1 FIXATION ROUND KNIFE Center the circular knife by selecting the cuttable spacer ring on the clamping flange. Now fix the circular knife with the pressure disk and the fixation nut on the clamping flange (see Picture). Before tightening up or loosing the fixation nut, the shaft fixation pin must be pressed down. Turn the motor shaft with the cwrench till the pin locks in the shaft fixation. !!! Attention when tightening and loosening of the circular knife. Risk of injury !!! Pressure disk Shaft fixation Clamping flange Shaft Clamping nut Lynette After you have fixed the circular knife, place the lynette on the back of the knife. Align the lynette in the way that the wheel is turning softly (e. g. circular knife 10°, lynette approx. 15°). Depending on the type of circular knife, you can adjust the angle of the lynette head correspondingly. The lynette is to support of the circular knife and grants a burr free bevel. Adjustment of Place on the angle values back of the cutting edge...

!!! !!! IMPORTANT INFORMATION PLEASE READ 5. BASIC REGARDING GRINDING Please keep in mind, that grinding basically is a form of soft treatment. For getting optional results, please pay attention to some elementary rules. Physically grinding is a interaction between material of the workpiece, the suitable abrasive, binding of the abrasive, grit size, cooling liquid and finaly the well matched feeding size as well as halt and grinding cycles without feeding. For achieving perfect precision it is basicly considered using small feeding sizes (4 µ), halt cycles of minimum 15 to 30 seconds at a speed of 10 to 20 rpm, cooling liquid directed to the circular knife. It is absolutely recommended to focus your attention to the grinding cycles with no feeding. This timespan should last a long until you hear no more noise from the grinding wheel. That grants that the complete feeding size has been worked off. Surely grinding also means scrub treatment but this is with it's parameters quite sobering for an amateur in grinding. Scrubbing means very coarse grit, open bonding of the grinding wheel, feeding of max. 12 µ, halt periods of min. 10 30 seconds, at knife rotation of 15 to 25 rpm and a lot of cooling liquid. As mentioned above, these parameters are only a rough guideline which grants that chooses parameters can be processed by the machine. Finally, factors as grinding medium and material has to be considered and specially selected for each application. Material: HSS, highgrade steel hardened, steel hardened etc. can successfully sharpened with a corundum or CBN grinding wheel. By use of resinoid bond abrasive material, the cooling liquid should have min. 10% oil content, as this abrasive bond produces a considerable rubbing on the workpiece causing more heat. Material: Carbide steel glass, ceramics can be sharpened successfully by a diamond wheel. As written before, an adequate oil content has to be considered. ...

Open the hexagon screw M6 Screw in the lifting screw M8 for lifting the grinding wheel support with the grinding wheel Unscrew the allen screw M6 with the supplied allen wrench SW 5. Screw in the lifting screw M8 for lifting the grinding wheel support with the grinding wheel. Place the new grinding wheel on the motor shaft and pay attention that the driving pin of the grinding wheel support is placed in the groove of the motor shaft. Now tighten the grinding wheel support with an allen wrench. ...
