ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS/OPERATIONS
To maximize the service life of the diamond
segments, it is recommended that the blades be
rotated between gimbal heads a minimum of once
for every 8 hours of operation.
FIGURE 22
Diamond Segment Block
The diamond insert block is designed to compliment
the multi-segmented diamond disc where a quick
changeover feature to other attachments is desired.
Diamond segments are retained into a steel block
assembly and deliver up to 5 times greater
productivity rates than the silicon carbide stones.
FIGURE 24. The design resists clogging while
delivering a conservative service life up to 15 times
longer than the stones. Diamond is the ideal choice
for larger concrete removal projects and the removal
of epoxies, paints and many thin film coatings.
FIGURE 23
The concept is especially useful for removing a thin
layer of concrete in final preparation for a new
coating application. Can be used in both wet and dry
job applications. Worn inserts are easily replaced in
a matter of seconds. Service life is dependent upon
many variables, but can approach 35,000 square
feet per set, making it a cost efficient solution for
many job applications.

DANGER
WHEN INSTALLING A MULTI-ACCESSORY
ATTACHMENT ON THE SURFACE GRINDER
ALWAYS WEAR THE APPROPRIATE SAFETY
EYEWEAR AND APPAREL TO MINIMIZE THE
POTENTIAL FROM FLYING DEBRIS. FLYING
DEBRIS CAN RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE
AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.
1) If the SURFACE GRINDER is powered by an
engine, disconnect the spark plug wire. If
powered by an electric motor, properly
disconnect the extension cord or SURFACE
GRINDER from the power source.
2) Tilt the SURFACE GRINDER back until the
operator handle comes in contact with the
surface. The SURFACE GRINDER may not be
in a stable position in this configuration. To
minimize the possibility of property damage
and/or personal injury, properly secure an
