REMOVING THE GUARD (See Fig. G1, G2, G3, G4)
Never remove your guard for any other working conditions. To remove, first take off the disc
and both flanges. Then open the clamping lever and rotate the guard to align the projections with
the gear case cut outs, then remove the guard (the guard has been well adjusted, do not adjust its
nut casually).
To re-fit the guard, repeat this process in reverse. Keep all parts in a safe place.
NOTE: The guard is well adjusted for directly use, do not adjust its nut casually. But after long time
use, user may need to adjust guard's nut (with clamping lever open and adjust it by tool) to ensure
the guard is securely clamped after the clamping lever is finally closed. (In the closed condition,
strength of 8Nm can't rotate the well fixed guard).
8. USE THE GRINDER (See Fig. H)
ATTENTION: Do not switch the grinder on while the disc is in contact with the workpiece.
Allow the disc to reach full speed before starting grinding.
WARNING: Never use a cutting disc for grinding. When grinding, only use disc guard for grinding,
do not use other disc and disc guard which is not mentioned in this manual.
CAUTION: Please support the workpiece properly.
Hold your angle grinder with one hand on the main handle and other hand firmly around the
auxiliary handle.
Always position the guard so that as much of the exposed disc as possible is pointing away from you.
Be prepared for a stream of sparks when the disc touches the metal.
For best tool control, material removal and minimum overloading, keep an angle between the disc
and the workpiece surface at approximately 15 to 30 when grinding.
o o
Use cautiously when working into corners as contacting with the intersecting surface may cause the
grinder to jump or twist.
NOTE: When side grinding and peripheral grinding, also need to keep the angle between the disc
and the workpiece surface at approximately 15º to 30º.
When grinding is complete, allow the workpiece to cool. Do not touch the hot surface.
9. OVERLOAD
Overloading will cause damage to the motor of your angle grinder. This can happen if your angle
grinder is subjected to heavy use for prolonged periods of time.
Never attempt to exert too much pressure on your angle grinder to speed up your work.
The abrasive discs operate more efficiently when light pressure is exerted, thus avoiding a drop in
the speed of your angle grinder.
If your angle grinder becomes too hot, run it no load for 2-3 minutes until it has cooled to normal
operation temperature.
10. DISPOSAL OF AN EXHAUSTED BATTERY PACK
To preserve natural resources, please recycle or dispose of the battery pack properly. This battery
pack contains Lithium batteries. Consult your local waste authority for information regarding available
recycling and/or disposal options. Discharge your battery pack by operating your tool, then remove the
battery pack from the tool housing and cover the battery pack connections with heavy duty adhesive tape
to prevent short circuit and energy discharge. Do not attempt to open or remove any of the components.
WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR ANGLE GRINDER
Always start at no load to achieve maximum speed then start working.
Do not force the disc to work faster, reducing the Disc's moving speed means longer working time.
Always work with a 15º to 30º angle between disc and work-piece. Larger angles will cut ridges into the work-
piece and affect the surface finish. Move the angle grinder across and back and forth over the work-piece.
