Fitting the Nose Piece
Align the holes in the nose piece (13)
with those on the motor unit (14/15). Fit
and fasten the three dome head screws
(12).
Inner Shaft/Outer Casing Assembly
Insert Inner (16) into the motor end of
rubber casing after ensuring that the ball
race (11) has been packed with grease.
The inner shaft needs to be pre-
tensioned.
Screw the threaded dumbbell spindle
screw onto the inner shaft and pull the
end out of the outer shaft until the
spanner flats on the inner shaft are
visible.
Insert the supplied spanner into the flats
and tighten the spindle onto the inner
shaft.
Fitting of Dumbbell Handle
Fit both ball race bearings into the
corresponding bores of the dumbbell
handle. Ensure that the ball races are
fitted correctly and have been packed
with the recommended grease.
Fit the dumbbell handle onto the large
threaded hexagonal adaptor (10) on the
outer drive casing (6) and secure (left-
hand thread).
Fit locking cap (2) to front of dumbbell
handle ensuring that the recessed holes
are on the exposed side to enable
locking with special tool provided.
Assembly of Scaling Heads
Wire Brush
Secure centre bolt (29) head in vice
vertically and fit washer, (20) wire brush
(30) and top washer (20).
Screw hexagonal nut (19) down by hand
before fastening securely with the
spanners provided.
Fit a pin into the side plate and place a
chipping leaf, (23) and washer (22)
alternate with chipping leaf and washer
for the length of the pin.
The 3 pins must be equally spaced about
the 6 holes. Align top plate (28) holes
with 3 exposed pins (24).
Fit washer (20) and hexagon nut (19) to
centre bolt thread.
Screw nut down by hand before
fastening securely with the spanners
provided.
Fitting Assembled Scaling Head to
Dumbbell Handle
All scaling heads are fitted to the
dumbbell handle by screwing the centre
bolt (18), (27) or (29) into the dumbbell
handle spindle, (1) and fastening
securely using the spanners provided.
Fitting of Hand Guard
Place rubber guard (9) onto front of
dumbbell handle (5), align holes with
metal clamp (8) and fasten securely with
bolts, nuts and washers (7).
Machine Storage
Short period storage: up to 3months.
Clean the outside of the machine and
inspect the cutters and pins for wear,
replace any worn parts as required.

with a rust preventative solution which is
also safe to use on the rubber
components, if accidentally applied.
See also motor manufactures operation
and maintenance instruction book.
Cover the machine to protect it.
Store the machine in a dry place.
Be sure to check the security of all
fastenings after any lay up period.
Long period storage: over 3months
Clean the outside of the machine and
