Powered by a totally enclosed, fan-cooled 1.5-horsepower electric motor, the SG12/E features a single rotating disc with a 12-inch working width. Offering a top disc rotation speed of 250 rpm, applications include grinding concrete surfaces, removing mastics, adhesives, epoxies and urethanes, breaking up deposits of grease and dirt, removing rubber carpet backing and industrial residues, and polishing more delicate terrazzo and marble floor surfaces.
The SG12/E includes a folding handle that makes it easier to transport in smaller vehicles, and the compact frame design and wheel position allow for simple maneuvering up and down stairwells. The SG12/E’s welded-steel plate frame includes an integral bail design for loading and unloading with a forklift. Extra capacity, self-aligning ball bearings and a heavy-duty V-belt reduction drive system are standard for optimum durability. A removable safety and dust shield surrounding the rotating disc helps contain airborne dust and limits material contamination, while also protecting the machine’s internal components from damage. For safety, the SG12/E includes the exclusive Quik-Stop deadman motor switch that immediately stops the grinder’s motor in the event the operator loses control of the machine. A 37-foot-long extension cord is standard, complete with a GFI for added safety.
The SG12/E accommodates the same wide variety of attachments currently available with General Equipment’s larger, dual-head Series of surface grinders. This includes grinding stones, scarifiers, wire brushes, the SCRAPE-R-TACH Coatings Removal System and the DIAM-A-TACH Diamond Segment Grinding System.
