The 20-inch LAVINA propane Grinder makes your garage or small project prep a quick and easy job. It is a small but mighty machine that delivers superior performance and maneuverability.
GRINDER FEATURES
- NEW AND IMPROVED WATER SYSTEM with gravity-fed water supply from the water tank and hose connection (fitting is included) for optimal wet grinding and simpler maintenance. There is no water pump or misting system on the new machines.
- New rear wheel set that makes grinder transportation and loading easier. It comes installed on all 20/25/30-inch Elite machines, and it is also available as an accessory for previous Elite models.
- Dust-proof planetary drive protects internal components from dust and moisture, which reduces maintenance and increases service life.
- The heads of all propane grinders have counter-clockwise / left rotation. Use the blue PCDs and Carbide Scrapers.
- Easy-to-use integrated weights.
- Improved dust collection efficiency. Adjustable skirt with a flexible brush for better dust containment. Also, the vacuum hose connection is now closer to the dust source.
- EPA & CARB Blue Sky Engine – our certified engine kit provides optimal performance with low emissions.
- New adjustable handle bar with multiple handle positions for more convenient operation and transportation. Make sure the handle position is locked when moving or using the machine.
- Two LED lights for monitoring the floor. A detachable LED light (with a magnet) on the base in the front improves visibility, and a second LED light attached in the back of the machine near the floor helps monitor the scratch pattern.
- Convenient integrated lift points for moving the machine with a forklift.
- Charging phone station.
- Durable stainless steel cup holder.
GRINDING TIPS
- Overlap around 25% of the machine work path between passes.
- Check dust skirt to make sure it is all the way down, touching the floor to reduce airborne dust. Replace skirt if worn out or damaged.
- When starting machine hold it firmly and start moving (don’t keep it in one spot while heads are spinning).
- When stopping machine, keep moving until the grinding heads stop.
- To tilt machine up for tooling changes, move the weight back.
- To add more grinding pressure and grind more aggressively, put the weights down / forward.
- Always lock the weights during transportation.
Always use VAPOR tanks only with LAVINA machines. Do not fill over 80%, as this can cause freezing and pressure regulator damage.
When propane equipment is used indoors, proper air ventilation with access to FRESH AIR and proper equipment maintenance (oil and filter changes, etc) are of critical importance for operator’s safety. Operators should always carry CO monitor or badge.
Read all warnings and information in your machine manual before operating any equipment.
