Before start-up 

 
Before start-up, the operating personnel must be familiar with the safety regulations given in this manual. 
 

 

Put the grinding machine and the dust collector on to the surface to be processed. 

 

Fit the appropriate diamond grinding wings that are required for this particular process. Please read 

Chapter 4.6

 of this manual. 

 

Connect the machine and the dust collector to the electricity supply point, these electric supply points 

should be protected and equipped with an earth connection and earth leakage circuit breaker. In case 
of doubt ask the local safety officer. 

 

Check the dust hose for damages and obstructions. Make sure the dust bin of the dust collector unit is 

empty. Observe the local regulations regarding waste disposal. 

 

Connect the grinding machine and the dust collector unit with the flexible dust hose. Use hose clamps 

at the connections. 

 

Before grinding, clean the surface to be treated. There should not be any trash, stones, cloths, or oil 

on the surface. 

 

Remove all objects from the surface that can damage the machine. Remove reinforcing steel or other 

objects protruding from the surface in order to prevent damage to the machine, the seals or diamond 
wings. 

 
 
 
 
 

4.8 Wheel height 

 
The wheels of the BMG-444 can be set at different heights for different applications. 
On the frame there are marks to indicate for what application the hole is used.
