Handle

For work safety and convenience use the
m
auxiliary handle. This can be mounted on
the left or right side, or on the top of the
machine. Choose the position that provides
the most comfortable and safest handling

Guard

Fit the guard as shown in the illustration.
m
Adjust the clamping force of the locking arm
by tightening the hex screw out or in when
the locking arm is unloaded.

Grinding Wheel Assembly

Place the inner flange disc over the spindle
m
with the locking edges facing down and
make sure that the disc and spindle's edges
mate. The flange disc must not rotate freely,
but must follow the rotation of the spindle.
Place the grinding or cut-off disc on the
m
inner flange disc and align the hole against
the shoulder.
Fit the quick change outer flange disc.
m
Press and hold in the button for the
spindle lock to prevent the spindle from
rotating during tightening.
After fitting or replacing the disc, the grinder
m
should be test-run at a low speed for a
few minutes, without the disc being placed
against an object. If the disc is damaged it
must be replaced immediately.
NOTE
Disassembling the grinding wheel can be
performed in inverse order.

Power Switch

NOTE
Ensure the self-locking button is loosened
and the switch is in the 'off' position before
the power is turned on.
On: Press and push the power switch
m
forward to start the tool, then press down
the switch to lock.

m
mean you don't have to hold the switch
whilst using the tool.
Off: Press and push the power switch
m
backwardso stop the tool.
NOTE
Using the pressure release function of the
power switch gives you added safety. Letting
go will make the tool stop itself.

Surface Grinding

Allow the tool to reach full speed before
m
touching the tool to the work surface.
Apply minimum pressure to the work
m
surface, allowing the tool to operate at high
speed. Grinding rate is greatest when the
tool is at high speed.
Maintain a 20-30 degree angle between the
m
tool and work surface.
Continuously move the tool in a forward
m
and back motion to avoid creating gouges in
the work surface.
Remove the tool from the work surface
m
before turning it tool off. Allow the tool to
stop rotating before laying it down.
