Quick guide from the manual
The Scheppach TIGER 2000S is a wet grinder designed for sharpening metal tools. Before use, ensure the machine is placed on a stable, well-lit surface. Always perform a sound test on the grinding stone to check for cracks before installation. The machine can be operated with or against the grinding direction depending on your needs.
Device description
Key components include the grinding stone, leather honing wheel, water tank, workpiece support, and motor. The machine is designed for wet grinding of metal tools.

Installation
The grinding stone is not pre-mounted for packaging reasons. Use a 19mm wrench (not included) to secure it. Ensure the water tank is positioned correctly under the stone and filled to the mark. The workpiece support can be attached to the upper or side mount depending on the desired grinding direction.
Operation
Grinding direction: Working against the grinding direction is recommended for removing large amounts of steel (e.g., from old, rusty tools). Working with the grinding direction is recommended for precise sharpening of tools and knives.
Honing: Impregnate the leather honing wheel with machine oil and apply honing paste. Distribute the paste by pressing the tool onto the wheel with circular movements.
Maintenance
Keep ventilation slots clean. The device has no internal parts requiring maintenance. Wear parts include the grinding stone, honing paste, leather honing wheel, and friction wheel. Clean the device immediately after each use.
Troubleshooting
If the motor does not start, check the power cable, plug, and fuses. If the motor runs slowly or lacks power, check the voltage or consult a specialist regarding the capacitor.
