Never use the angle grinder without the
guard.
5.3 TEST RUN FOR NEW GRINDING WHEELS
Allow the right-angle grinder to run in idle for at least
1 minute with the grinding or cutting wheel fitted in
place. Vibrating wheels are to be replaced
immediately.
6. Operation
6.1 SWITCH (Fig. 4)
To help prevent accidents, the right-angle grinder is
equipped with a safety switch. To turn on the
machine, push the switch forward and push down
until it latches in place. To turn the right-angle grinder
off, push the switch down. It will then jump back to its
original position.
Wait until the machine has reached its top
speed. You can then position the angle grinder
on the workpiece and machine it.
6.2 Changing the grinding wheels (Fig. 5 / 6)
Use the face spanner (5) supplied to change the
grinding wheels. The face spanner (5) is stored in the
additional handle (3). Pull the face spanner (5) out of
the additional handle (3) when you need it.
Important! For safety reasons, the angle grinder
must not be operated with the face spanner (5)
inserted in it.
Pull out the power plug.
Simple wheel change by spindle lock:
●
Press the spindle lock and allow the grinding
●
wheel to latch in place.
Open the flange nut with the face spanner.
●
(Fig. 6)
Change the grinding or cutting wheel and tighten
●
the flange nut with the face spanner.
Important!
Only ever press the spindle lock when the motor
and grinding spindle are at a standstill!
You must keep the spindle lock pressed while
you change the wheel!
For grinding or cutting wheels up to approx. 3 mm
thick, screw on the flange nut with the flat side facing
the grinding or cutting wheel.

6.4 MOTOR
It is vital for the motor to be well ventilated during
operation. Be sure, therefore, to keep the ventilation
holes clean at all times.
6.5 GRINDING WHEELS
Never use a grinding or cutting wheel bigger than
●
the specified diameter.
Before using a grinding or cutting wheel, check
●
its rated speed.
The wheel´s rated speed must be higher than the
●
idle speed of the right-angle grinder.
Use only grinding and cutting wheels that are
●
approved for a minimum speed of 11,000 rpm
and a peripheral speed of 80 m/sec.
Check the direction of rotation when you use
●
diamond cutting wheels. The directional arrow on
the diamond cutting wheel must point in the
direction in which the tool rotates.
6.6 OPERATING MODES
6.6.1 Rough grinding (Fig. 11)
For the best rough grinding results, hold the grinding
wheel at an angle of between 30° and 40° to the
workpiece surface and guide back and forth over the
workpiece in steady movements.
6.6.2 Cutting (Fig. 12)
When you use the right-angle grinder for cutting
purposes, avoid tilting it in the cutting plane. The
cutting wheel must have a clean cutting edge.
A diamond cutting wheel is best used to cut hard
stone.
It is prohibited to use the machine on
asbestos materials!
Never use a cutting wheel for rough grinding.
