m Warning!
Do not connect the device to the power supply until
assembly is complete. Failure to do so may result in
accidental starting and possibly serious injury.
9.2 Sound test
Check the grindstone for cracks and perform a sound
test for crack detection.
• The grindstone must be removed from the machine
for the sound test. The grindstone stands upright on
the floor. On a hard floor, use a piece of wood as a
support. The grindstone must be dry.
• Lightly tap the grinding disc with a non-metallic ham-
mer. A crack-free disc has a high, purely bell-like
sound. A disc that has a crack produces a muffled
sound. If the grindstone is flawless, it can be fitted.
9.3 Installing the grindstone (Fig. 2)
Only use grindstones with identical technical data (see
Technical data).
Assemble grinding stone (12) and the star knob (3) as
shown in fig. 2.
9.4 Fitting the workpiece support (1) (Fig. 2 + 3)
Then place the work piece surface (1) into the bracing
element and secure it, using the help of the star knobs
(see fig. 2)
The workpiece support (1) can be attached both to the
upper mount for workpiece support (2) and to the side
mount for workpiece support (15).
This depends on whether you wish to work with or
against the grinding direction.
9.5 Installing the water tank (Fig. 4 + 5)
The water tank should be hooked into its port (D) (see
fig. 5).
10. Working instructions
On/off switch (6) (Fig. 1)
• To switch on the machine, press the green "I" button.
• To switch the device off again, press the red button "0".
Direction of grinding (Fig. 2 + 3)
It mainly depends on your requirements whether you
want to work with or against the direction of grinding.
If you want to quickly remove large quantities of steel
(e.g. from very old, rusty tools) or if you want to grind
coarse tools, such as axes, it is recommended to work
against the direction of grinding.

If you want to grind more precisely, we recommend to
work with the direction of grinding. This applies, for ex-
ample, to carving tools and knives. Please note that the
grinding process is slowed down if you work with the
direction of rotation.
Please check before each operation whether the sur-
face of the grinding stone is even. To do so, lower the
universal support onto the stone and turn it manually
by 360°. If required, trim uneven material using the 250
trimming device.
Upon the time of delivery, the TiGer provides of even
surfaces.
Water Reservoir (Fig. 4 + 5)
Fill the water reservoir with water up to the marking.
The grinding stone becomes saturated with water. Re-
fill water, if required. Do not grind without water.
Once the grinding process is completed, lower the wa-
ter reservoir to prevent the grinding stone from being in
the water for an extended period of time.
Empty the water reservoir regularly. Otherwise, parti-
cles of steel and trimmed stone will accumulate and
compress in the reservoir.
Expert tip: Such precipitations can be avoided if you
place a magnet into the water.
Angle Measurer (Fig. 6)
Measure the angle of the grinding bezel by comparing
the cutting edge to the notches. Then, you set the de-
termined angle at the device by changing the height of
the universal support. To do so, perform the following
steps:
First, clamp the tool into the device and insert the de-
vice on the universal support.
Then, hold the angle measurer with the desired angle
at the tool tip. Now, adjust the height of the universal
support in such a manner that the front end of the angle
measurer straightly borders the grinding stone. Please
make sure that the angle measurer is always in align-
ment with the tool tip.
Note: The values indicated on the angle measurer are
only standard values. Of course, you can change these
values according to your requirements.
Grinding (Fig. 7)
Expert tip: New tools still show traces of the production
process. You can substantially increase the lifetime of
your tools if you grind them on both sides of the cutting
edge before the first application. You simply grind the
back side in the free-handed mode on the vertical of
the grinding stone, and the front side as follows.
