WARNING
Risk of injury caused by the machine overturning
Inadmissible height adjustment of the support structure
–
When adjusting the support structure, the machine can fall over and cause
injuries if the set screw has been unscrewed too far.
•
Always use an SW17 open end wrench when adjusting the height.
•
Only raise the support structure so far that no more than 20 mm of
the set screw (H4) can be seen between the top nut (H2) and the
bottom nut (H3).
•
Ensure that the machine is in a secure position.
NOTICE
H0011
Damage to the machine caused by the machine overturning
Inadmissible height adjustment of the support structure
–
When adjusting the support structure, the machine can fall over and be

•
Use an SW17 open end wrench when adjusting the height.
•
Only raise the support structure so far that no more than 20 mm of
the set screw (H4) can be seen between the top nut (H2) and the
bottom nut (H3).
•
Ensure that the machine is in a secure position.

Secure the height of the support structure by tightening the top nut (H2) using the SW17
open end wrench (H1).
•
Repeat the process with the other wheel until the support structure has been aligned
almost horizontally.
When aligning the support structure, a backwards tilt of approx. 1-2° is recommended for
an ideal operating function.

4.1 Use of the Device for the Intended Purpose
Target group: Operating companies, operators
Designation of machine model: SM 100
This powerful cutting mill is used to grind elastic and fibrous products and product mixtures in
batches or continuously. In addition this device is fundamentally not designed to grind wet or
damp materials. The special moulding of the cutting tools in conjunction with the drive produces
fast, efficient grinding without the ground material interrupting the procedure.
With the following special features
The new powerful grinding mill can successfully perform difficult grinding tasks where other
grinding mills fail. The device facilitates particularly effective preliminary grinding of
heterogeneous material mixtures such as waste or electronic components. Analytical fineness
can usually be achieved in one step. The cutting mill can also be used successfully with a
number of other materials. The grinding material is only slightly warmed in the process so that
the mill can also be used for materials that are temperature sensitive.
Use with the large selection of sieves, hoppers and collecting vessels enables the equipment to
be adjusted to individual tasks.
– Fast, successive grinding by 18 spiral-shaped cutting plates distributed round the rotor
– Parallel section rotor
– Cutting tools made from quality materials
– User-friendly with central locking and control panel
– Consistent reliability of all operational device components
– Diverse use possible due to device variations and wide range of accessories
– Powerful grinding thanks to 1,5 kW motor with high torque
– Can be cleaned very quickly due to the push-fit rotor
– Defined ultimate fineness through bottom sieves with mesh sizes of 0.25 -
20 mm
NOTICE
Area of use of the machine
–
This machine is a laboratory machine designed for 8-hour single-shift
operation.
•
This machine may not be used as a production machine nor is it
intended for continuous operation.
Damage to hearing
The level of noise can be high depending on the type of material,
the knife used, the speed set and the duration of the grinding
process.
- Noise that is excessive in terms of level and duration can cause
impaired or permanently damaged hearing.
•
Ensure suitable sound-proofing measures or wear
hearing protection.
Noise emissions in accordance with DIN 45635-31-01-KL3.
Emissions at 1m distance:
– approx. 68 dB (A) when idling
When grinding depending on the material to be ground:
– approx. 85 to 95 dB (A) with peaks up to 110 dB (A)

Possibility of personal injuries
Injuries due to rotating rotor
–
Reaching into the turning rotor
•
Never open the grinding chamber door while the rotor
or the motor is still rotating.
•
Stop the device by actuating the switch (G).
•
Open the grinding area door by turning the handle (U).
Fig. 21: Opening the grinding area door
5.4 Mounting the bottom sieve
•
Select the appropriate bottom sieve.
•
Open the mill housing and slide the bottom sieve (I) of your choice into the
device.
5.5 Replacing the rotor
CAUTION
Injuries in the form of cuts
Sharp cutting edges on the rotors and cutting bars
–
The sharp cutting edges on the rotors and cutting bars can injure hands.
•
Wear protective gloves when replacing the cutting rotors and
cleaning the grinding chamber.
•
Use the rotor extraction tool when handling the cutting rotors.

NOTICE
Wear or damage of the device
Operation without grinding set
− During operation of the device without grinding set, excessive wear or
damage to the device may occur.
• Operate the device only with a grinding set mounted.
NOTICE
Damage to mechanical components
Blockages typical of cutting mills
–
When coarse, solid material is fed in for grinding, the high feeding capacity
of the standard rotor can cause blockages that are typical of the cutting
mills.
•
If blockages occur, switch off the mill immediately and remove the
clogging material.
5.5.1 Removing the Rotor
•
Stop the device.
•
Open the grinding area door.
•
Screw the removal grip (EG) on the rotor and pull the rotor from the drive
shaft.
Fig. 22: Removal grip
5.5.2 Inserting the Rotor
•
Clean and lubricate the motor shaft and the rotor.
•
Slide the rotor onto the motor shaft.
Apart from this the device is largely maintenance-free.
Nevertheless we recommend that the cutting tools are checked at least once a month
depending on the frequency of use.

5.6 Inserting the filter unit and collecting receptacle
The filter unit serves as air outlet for the flow of air generated by the grinding rotors.
Fig. 23: Attaching and removing the filter unit
•
Insert the bayonet lock (BV) on the filter unit (J) into the discharge flange
(AV) as shown in the diagram.
•
Twist the filter unit in a clockwise direction to engage the bayonet lock.
•
To remove the filter unit, pull the locking pins (RB) out to release the bayonet
lock (BV).
Alternatively the collecting receiver can be placed directly on the discharge flange. The
discharge of the air flow is prevented in the latching position (BV).
In the latching position (LS) a gap remains between the discharge flange and collecting vessel;
this permits air discharge.

5.7 Switching On and Off
Fig. 25: On/off switch
You can switch the device on/off using the on/off switch (G). The motor starts up or is shut down
when the switch is actuated. The switch disconnects the device from the mains.
5.8 Starting the grinding process
NOTICE
Only fill test material when the device is running because this may otherwise lead to motor
blockages when starting the device.
The cutting gap between the rotor and cutting bar must be checked after each grinding
operation with hard materials. The maximum cutting gap may be 0.5 mm (minimum is 0.3 mm).
(See chapter on Adjusting the cutting bars)

6.1 Adjusting the cutting bars
The cutting gap must be checked to ensure that the device is functioning satisfactorily (target
distance 0.3mm). For this reason the cutting bars (SL) are arranged so that they can be shifted
to permit adjustments to the cutting gap.
Fig. 27: Access to the cutting bars
•
Unscrew the four screws on the left-hand cover [1].
•
Unscrew the three screws on the right-hand cover [2].
•
Open the grinding area door.
•

Using a feeler gauge (BL) check the cutting gap for all three cutting bars (SL). It should be at
least 0.3 mm.
The feeler gauge (BL) must be placed as shown in the diagram. The cutting gap must show a
uniform distance across its entire depth. For this reason check the cutting gap across its entire
depth.
The cutting edge that has the smallest distance to the knife denotes the cutting gap (SP1). The
second cutting edge can have a larger cutting gap width.

Fig. 30: Cutting gap
•
By twisting the stud bolts (U) to the right, slide the cutting bar closer to the
rotor blade and thereby reduce the cutting gap. Increase the cutting gap by
twisting to the left [3].
•
Tighten the screw (WS) and check the cutting gap. Repeat the process if
necessary.
•
After adjusting the cutting bar, tighten the screw (W) firmly again to 7Nm [4].
•
Finally re-assemble the right and left-hand cover on the device.
NOTICE
Do not set the cutting gap to less than 0.3 mm. Contact between the cutting plates and cutting
bars can damage the mechanical components.
The tightening torque of the screw (W) must be 7Nm. This is necessary to guarantee that the
cutting bars are securely positioned.
