Stow Grinder DFG Series Manuel D’Utilisation

 

 

ADJUSTING THE OPERATOR HANDLE HEIGHT. 
Application: All Models. 
The DFG Series SURFACE GRINDER incorporates 
a handle that can be adjusted to compensate for 
variances in operator heights. Three adjustment 
heights are provided. Correct handle height can 
increase overall machine productivity and reduce 
operator fatigue.

Tools Required: 
 
1 each, 3/4 wrench or suitable alternative. 
 
1)  Using the wrench, loosen the 1/2-inch hexagon 

nuts from the stud assemblies that retain the 
handle to the main frame. 

2)  Using the wrench, remove the 1/2-inch cap 

screws that retain the handle in position on the 
main frame. 

 

 

 
EXERCISE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN 
REMOVING THE RETAINING CAPSCREWS 
FROM THE MAIN FRAME. WHEN THE FINAL 
CAPSCREW IS REMOVED, THE HANDLE IS 
PROVIDED WITH NO EXTERNAL SUPPORT AND 
WILL IMMEDIATELY DROP TO THE FLOOR. 
SUCH OCCURRENCE CAN RESULT IN 
PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL 
INJURY. 
 
3)  Reposition the operator handle in the desired 

location that aligns the hole in the handle with 
the threaded hole in the main frame. Replace 
the 1/2-inch hexagon cap screws and properly 
tighten with the wrench. FIGURE 30. 

 

 

4)  Using the wrench, properly tighten the 1/2-inch 

hexagon nuts on the stud assemblies that retain 
the handle to the main frame.

STARTING THE DFG/E SERIES ELECTRICALLY 
POWERED SURFACE GRINDER ON THE 
JOBSITE. 

1)  Position the SURFACE GRINDER on a flat and 

level surface of firm foundation. 

2)  Determine that the ON/OFF switch located on 

the operator handle is in the OFF position. 

 

 

UNEXPECTED MACHINE START UP CAN 
RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR 
PERSONAL INJURY. 
 
3)  Select the appropriate operating voltage for the 

electric motor. The motor  is designed to operate 
from a clean, 20 ampere, 115 VAC, 60 Hz 
nominal or a clean, 10 ampere, 230 VAC, 60 Hz 
nominal power source. A clean power source 
refers to the amperage available on the 
individual electrical circuit selected. Additional 
electrical products already utilizing the same 
circuit will reduce the available amperage, 
resulting in starting and operational difficulties. 

 

A voltage switch (115/230 VAC, 60 Hz) is 
provided on the motor. For added security, the 
voltage switch can be locked in position with a 
combination or keyed lock with an extended 
shank length. FIGURE 31.
