Speed and direction setting is often a matter of per-
sonal choice. Operators are encouraged to experiment
to fi nd which settings best suit the given applications.
The following table lists some suggested set-ups for
different applications.
APPLICATION DIRECTION SPEED
Ceramic tile adhesive removal FWD 6-7
Carpet glue removal FWD 5-7
Epoxy paint removal FWD 5-10
Rain damaged concrete FWD 7-10
Smoothen exposed aggregate FWD 7-8
Lippage removal in terrazzo / stone tiles FWD 5-7
Concrete polishing with resin bond pads FWD 10
PIRANHA™ scraper tool REV 3-5
FLEXOR™ fl exible heads FWD 5-7
Bushhammer / Scarrifi er tools FWD 5
Re-grouting procedure during HiPERFLOOR™
process
FWD 5-8
Direction of rotation
The correlation between FWD/REV & Clockwise/Coun-
ter clockwise rotation can be said as follows if looking
at the grinding discs from underneath the machine:
1. REV—Clockwise.
2. FWD—Reverse.
As mentioned, when the machine is in operation it will
“pull” to one side. The direction of pull is determined by
the planetary head direction of rotation. The head of
the machine will pull to the right (and therefore, will be
felt on the right hip of the operator) when the planetary
head is set in the REVERSE direction.
This sideways pull can be very useful when grinding,
particularly along a wall. Set the machine so that it
pulls towards the wall, and then control the machine so
it can just touch the wall. This will ensure a grind close
to the wall wall or object.
Direction is also a matter of personal preference. It
should be noted, however, that when both grinding
discs and planetary heads are running in the same
direction, a more powerful grinding force is created be-
tween the diamonds abrasives and fl oor being ground.
The end result ishigher productivity than when the
discs are set to run in opposite directions.
For this reason, the machine is set so that both the
grinding heads and planetary rotation are set in the
same direction.
Production tip - To improve the cutting effi ciency of
diamonds, change directions on a regular basis. This
will work both sides of the diamond crystals, keeping
the abrasives as sharp as possible by creating maximal
exposure of the diamond crystal.
Once both speed and direction have been nominated,
switch on dust extraction or vacuum device.
IMPORTANT!
It is highly recommended to use the Husq-
varna DC 3300 dust extraction system for
complete dust control.
Standing behind machine with handlebars set as
described earlier, apply a small amount of downward
pressure on the handle. Switch the machine to run
mode using the STOP/RUN switch on the control
panel. The machine should start smoothly and acceler-
ate to the selected speed over a period of 5 seconds.
