FAQs

What type of air compressor is needed for this micro grinder?

You will need an air compressor that can maintain a working pressure between 85-115 psi (5.8-8.0 bar) and provide an average air consumption of at least 2 cfm.

How do I adjust the speed of the grinder?

The grinder features a built-in speed regulator. Adjustments are typically made via a control on the tool body, allowing you to increase or decrease the rotational speed as needed.

What are the 10 grinder heads used for?

The 10 grinder heads are designed for a variety of tasks, including grinding, polishing, deburring, rust removal, and shaping on different materials. Specific applications may vary based on head shape and grit.

Can this tool be used for heavy-duty grinding?

This is an air-powered *micro* grinder, best suited for precise, detailed work. It is not designed for heavy-duty material removal.

How long is the included air hose?

The kit includes a 1.5-meter (approximately 4.9 feet) air hose with a protective sleeve.

How should I maintain the micro grinder?

After use, clean the tool with a dry cloth and store it in a dry place. Periodically check the air hose for damage and ensure the air inlet is clear. Refer to the user manual for any specific lubrication requirements.

Troubleshooting

Tool not spinning or low power

Check air pressure from the compressor to ensure it is within the 85-115 psi range. Verify the air hose connection is secure and there are no leaks. Ensure the average air consumption (2 cfm) requirement is met by your compressor.

Speed regulator not functioning correctly

Ensure the regulator mechanism is clean and free of debris. If the issue persists, the internal regulator may require professional servicing.

Excessive vibration

Ensure the grinder head is securely attached and balanced. Check if the air supply is consistent; fluctuating pressure can cause vibration. Inspect the tool for any internal damage.

Air leaks from tool body

Inspect the air inlet connection for tightness. Check seals and O-rings for wear or damage and replace if necessary. If leaks persist from the tool housing, professional inspection is recommended.
