FAQ
Grain 80 for high abrasion: well suited for heavily rusted edges, a thick layer of wax on the base or heavily soiled bases.
Grain 100 for medium removal: for slightly rusted edges, a light layer of wax or slightly soiled coverings.
Grain 120 for low abrasion: slight rust film on the edges, minimally soiled coverings.
A complete cleaning of the machine is recommended once a year at the end of the season. On the last day of grinding, add the system cleaner to the old emulsion about 8-24 hours before pumping out. In this way, impurities and microorganisms in the lines and in the coolant tank are removed carefully and quickly. You can then dry, clean and store the machine for the next winter season. Also note the cleaning instructions in the operating manual.
The required concentration can be found on the information on your grinding additive. Please check this value weekly using a hand refractometer and top up with water or grinding additive as required.
During the winter months, your service machine is exposed to high loads every day. Just like a car, your service machine needs regular maintenance and inspection. Regular service and good care ensure that your machine is always in top condition. This keeps your machine in operation for a particularly long time and ensures a high reliability.
Your service machine will usually tell you when you need a new grinding stone. Modern service machines provide information at an early stage so that you can order a new stone until you have used it up completely.
The diamond should be visually checked regularly once a week and replaced if necessary. Pay attention to the marking on the diamond setting.
In general, the water tank should be emptied and refilled every month. This prevents the formation of germs and fungi and creates a healthy and hygienic working environment. Alternatively, we recommend using a cooling unit. This allows the water in the coolant tank to be used all season long.
