Additional Safety Rules for Grinding
and Honing Machines
• Use only grinding and honing wheels carrying
a label stating the manufacturer, the type of
bonding material, the dimensions and the
maximum speed of the wheel, and complying
with EN 12413.
• Do not use grinding and honing wheels with a
maximum speed lower than the speed of the
machine (see technical data).
• Do not use grinding and honing wheels that do
not conform to the dimensions stated in the
technical data. Do not use any spacers to make
a wheel fit onto the spindle.
• Replace a grinding or honing wheel as soon as
it has worn by more than ca. 40 mm.
• Always strictly follow the instructions when
replacing a grinding or honing wheel.
• Before fitting a new grinding or honing wheel, it
must be checked for cracks by suspending it on
a thin cord and striking it gently with a hammer.
The wheel should produce a clear sound. If not,
the wheel is damaged and must not be used.
• Regularly check a grinding or honing wheel for
alignment. If the wheel is running out of centre
or out of balance, it must be replaced.
• Always store grinding and honing wheels in a
dry place.
• Only use the machine at ambient temperatures
from 5 °C to 40 °C.
