2.2 Safety instructions
WARNING Before you install, operate or do maintenance on the machine, you must read the safety information
in this manual. Obey the instructions in this manual to prevent injuries or damage to the equipment.
WARNING Put the machine indoors, in a dry area with good light. Do not let the machine become wet or moist.
Do not put the machine near gas, liquids or other materials that can catch fire or explode.
WARNING Do not operate machines in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases or dust. Machines create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
WARNING The user must only do maintenance that is described in this manual on the machine. Only approved
and trained service technicians can do service on the machine.
WARNING Make sure that the power is turned off before you install, operate or perform maintenance on the
machine.
WARNING To prevent mistakes when chains are sharpened, it is very important to understand how the grinding
machine works. Read the instructions carefully before the machine is used.
WARNING Always wear safety gloves, protective glasses, ear protection, and any other personal protective
equipment suitable for the current work task.
WARNING Stop the machine immediately if it does not work correctly!
WARNING Before a chain is sharpened, make sure that the the grinding disc is not cracked, does not vibrate
or wobble. If the grinding disc is damaged it must be replaced immediately, see chapter 6.3. “Change the grinding
disc and fit the grinding disc guard”. If abnormal vibrations occur during operation, immediately stop the machine and
check the condition of the grinding disc.
WARNING Put the power converter where there is as little dust as possible and out of reach of sparks from the
machine.
WARNING Attach air hoses and cables with cable clamps, to make sure no one trips over them.
CAUTION The Triplematic machine must always be attached to the stand. Make sure that it is safely attached.
CAUTION Only use accessories that are supplied or approved by the manufacturer.
CAUTION If the pitch is not correctly set the chain will be pushed into an incorrect sharpening position. This
may result in a damaged chain.
CAUTION If the metal of a cutting link turns blue during grinding, the speed is set too high and the metal is
overheated. This can cause the metal in the cutting tooth to lose its properties. Replace the damaged cutting link or
sharpen the chain again.
CAUTION Clean the machine daily. To prevent that it breaks, remove grinding dust every day. Use a vacuum
cleaner, brush or similar to clean the machine.
CAUTION Make sure that the floor where the machine is placed, is flat and level. If it is not, attach the stand to
the floor with screws.

Product Description
3 Product Description
3.1 Product overview
The Triplematic Auto Chain Grinder is a machine that sharpens chains. The machine can sharpen chains (up to
.404” pitch) for power saws, forestry machines, and harvesters. A pneumatic chain tensioner is attached to the stand.
It secures and tensions the chain when it is sharpened. The stand has 2 chain hangers, which makes it easier to
separate the sharpened chains from chains that are not yet sharpened.
The machine has 2 grinding modes:
• The regular grinding mode where only the cutters are sharpened.
• The 3in1 grinding mode where all 3 edges (the cutting teeth, the gullet and the depth gauge) on the cutters
are sharpened. The edges are sharpened, one after the other, without interaction from the user.
The machine has 2 chain pusher modes:
• The standard mode, used for sharpening of standard chains.
• The skip tooth mode, used for sharpening 3/8” pitch skip sequence chains.
