back, use a 13mm socket to remove the
motor feet. Retain feet and hardware.
Step 3
Place motor in position shown in picture,
Reinstall the feet using the original
hardware on the side facing up. The feet
will be on the same side as the data plate.
Tighten to 15 ft/lb

*You may have to clean the paint on the
bolt head if it does not seat fully into its
position.
Step 3.1
To allow the base to bolt down properly,
use a #2 Philips screwdriver to:
For Fixed speed machines: swap bolts A
and B.
For Variable speed machines: remove bolt
A and place in the empty position B.
Step 4
While in this position, locate the base
plate, and the 4 x M8*40mm countersunk
bolts, washers and nuts. Use a 6mm allen
key and 13mm spanner and 5mm Allen key
to install the base plate. (If installing on a
pedestal, you may need to preinstall the
bolts).

Step 5
Place motor on its feet as shown, at this
point you should secure the grinder on a
bench or pedestal where it will be used. Do
NOT connect the motor to a power until
the assembly is completed.
Step 6
locate the 4 x M8*25mm bolts, Large
washers, Scorpion frame.
Step 7
Place the frame on the motor face mount
in an upright position, install the 4 bolts by
hand into the slotted holes into the motor
face. Use a spirit level on the front vertical
face of the frame and adjust plumb before
tightening to 20 ft/lb with 13mm socket.
8
Step 8
Use the 6 x M6x40 bolts, washers, flange
nuts, and nyloc nut to assemble the tool
holder.
Assemble as shown, with the nyloc nut
closest to the M12 threaded hole in the
frame. Align the flats of the nut
horizontally to allow the platen bracket to
slide over it.
Step 8.1
Install one of the locking handles to the
tool holder.
Use an Allen key in the back, while pulling
the lever back to allow you to rotate the
centre easily.
Step 9
Locate the platen, angle brackets, 2 x
10*16mm bolts & washers, 2 x M12*20mm
bolts & washers.
Install angle brackets to platen by hand,
then the assembly to the frame. Lightly nip
up the bolts using a 16mm and 18mm
spanner to hold in place, final adjustment
will come later.
The platen mount holes are offset, the
default position is to have the ‘Long’ end
down (as shown), but it can be reversed to
give more platen above the work rest, and
a shorter ‘Slack’ belt area.

Step 10
Next assemble the work rest to the tool
arm using 1 x M12*35mm bolt and washer
and 1 locking handle with a washer.
Tighten the bolt just enough to allow some
movement when the locking handle has
been released.
