3.TECHNICAL DATA

In the following information table, find the list of technical specifications of the sharpener described in this manual.

3.2. TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

Precise 6 bar air connection.
Connection voltage: 220/400V 2Ph 50/60Hz
Required connection power: 1.5 kW

4.TRANSPORT

The ELITE MVB 650 is delivered packed in a wooden crate.

During all transport and transfer, the machine must be kept in its original vertical position, any variation in this position may lead to the loss of the guarantee.

4.1.Instructions for unpacking and setting up

To lift or move the load, use a forklift with blades long enough to support the machine, taking into account the width and depth of the machine for the calculation of the weights to lift.

Once the packaging has been opened, remove the fixing stops from the feet of the machine

Before connecting the machine, remove any protection that the machine may have to protect the components during transport.

5.INSTALLATION

5.1.Machine placement

Before any work make sure that the machine is well aligned and does not oscillate at any of its ends, in which case it must be wedged to avoid movements. For its correct level it is necessary to use a leveling tool. This check must be carried out both longitudinally and transversally.

Poorly leveling the machine can cause unwanted vibrations and premature wear of the linear guides.

Remember: before connecting the machine, remove any protection that the machine may have to protect the components during transport.

5.2.Electrical connection

The electrical connection of the machine must be carried out by qualified technical personnel only at the voltage indicated in the machine order / machine identification plate.
For any doubt about the voltage, consult the manufacturer before the connection.

Any claim for an incorrect connection will be out of warranty.

6.STARTING UP

Start up

In this section we show you how the buttons on the ELITE MVB 650 control panel work.

NOTE: The data that appears in the different images is an example, each type of tool has its recommended data and the sharpening professional must know them.

Emergency stop

It is the red button located at the bottom right, in the penultimate row of buttons. In the event that there is a failure in use or a dangerous situation is being created, it allows the automatic disconnection of the machine.

Not to be used unless strictly necessary.

Once used to use the machine again, it must be pulled to return to the initial position.

ATTENTION: Under no circumstances should this control be modified or manipulated, this automatically puts the operator and people around him at risk of serious injury.

Sharpening operation

To start the sharpening process, you must first make sure that the emergency stop button is not activated.
The two types of modes in which it can operate are STOP MODE and START MODE.

DANGER: never manipulate the control panel buttons while changing the grinding wheel: risk of very serious injuries.

ATTENTION: before starting the wheel we must make sure that it is well attached to the axis where it is located and that NO ONE is manipulating the area where it rotates. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES CAN THE WHEEL BE STARTED WHILE SOMEONE IS MANIPULATING IT.

6.1.Power on and referencing

Turn on the machine with the ignition selector in the ON position, deactivate the emergency stop if it is active.

The machine's screen turns on and so does the green light of the traffic light.

Check that no shaft will collide with the referencing grinding wheel.

Then close the cabin and press the START button and follow the instructions on the screen.

IMPORTANT: Do not open the cabin while the machine is referencing. If you accidentally open it, turn the machine off again and repeat the process.

Once the machine has finished referencing it is ready to work.

6.2.Changing the grinding pin

Necessary tools: Open wrench No. 17.

With the machine off, remove the hex screw from the bottom of the grinding wheel. Hold the wheel and the wheel holder ring throughout the process so that it does not fall.

Now insert the new wheel.

Replace the centering ring in the correct position so that the centering bolt passes through the centering ring.

Replace the hex screw and tighten.

6.3. Changing the saw holder

The Elite MVB 650 sharpener comes equipped with one (1) saw blade carrier up to ø850 mm.

To change the support, remove the two (2) screws and keep them. Now we have the support out. It is important to make sure that when the support comes out, the bolt remains in its position. The 10 mm bolt will wear out over time and use due to the rubbing of the centering rings, so when the time comes it will have to be exchanged for a new bolt.

Next, we place the new support.

The operation is the same, we put a centering ring and we can now place the disc to be sharpened. In this way, we have it ready to work.

Change of saw holder

6.4.Adjustment of the feed curve according to the diameter of the circular saw

Depending on the diameter of the disc, the feed curve will need to be adjusted so that the feed pawl can advance the saw.

NOTE: To adjust the feed curve the feed pawl must be in its lower position. Otherwise the force of the spring will move the nail to the initial position and we will lose the current position.

7.GRINDING OPERATION

7.3.Sharpening of the tooth face

Only available with pivot grinding wheel for hollow face teeth.

To proceed to bring the tooth closer to the face or internal part of the saw blade, we will make sure to select the appropriate program; the one in which within the Tooth parameter it shows us the Flat Face option on the control panel screen. To do this, we will use the white selector located in the upper right part of the control panel and we will turn it until the screen shows us the program we want to select.

Next, we press the START button located at the bottom left of the control panel. So that the following warning message appears on the menu screen: ATTENTION. The wheel/stone is rotated (this is an informative message that warns us of the danger of being near the abrasive stone). After this, we press the START button again. We will see how the machine prepares for the sharpening process.

At this point, using the direction arrows that will allow us to move the axes, we will be able to move the stone at a fast speed. If, on the other hand, we want to select the slow speed, we will press the white selector once and select the axes that we require to move.

This allows us to make the initial approach with fast speed.

Important note: at this point, it is important to make sure you have the jaw closed and the tooth to be sharpened correct.

Once we are very close to the tooth, we will change the speed to slow on the menu screen using the white selector.

At this moment, we must introduce the abrasive stone to the point of the internal part where we want the sharpening to reach, contacting it, and to the part where we want to enter. It is at this point where the sharpening will end and where we must approximate it.

Once we have the approximate saw, we press the START button again and the sharpening cycle will begin to run.

8.MAINTENANCE

8.1.Preventive maintenance

Maintenance of the ELITE MVB 650 sharpeners is very simple but at the same time important.

It consists of the following:

• Cleaning of the carriage guides - Daily
• Cleaning and greasing the polished parts, in case the machine is not used for several days, to prevent oxidation.
• Check the level of coolant in the coolant tank. You can use to refill the coolant the ELITE SintoCut PRO MIX. The coolant should be mixed with water between 2 and 8%. Being below it can lead to oxidation of mechanical parts and if the level is higher it can be toxic. - Monthly.
• The sludge and dirty that is deposited both in the work area and in the coolant tank must be emptied - Weekly.
• Keeping the machine clean and in good condition will allow for optimal long-term use.

Use the equipment only in dry environments. The temperature must be between 5 and 40ºC. A relative humidity greater than 90%, as well as a saline environment, would cause premature corrosion of the machine.

To lubricate the pneumatic circuit we recommend using Esso Spinesso oil
