Note: To prevent accidental starting in a situation of power failure to the grinder, the 'ON/OFF' switch G) is fitted with a pro -
tective device that prevents the angle grinder from starting up automatically when the power is re-established. In this case,
and with the power
re-established, release the switch to the 'OFF' position, then switch to 'ON' as normal.
Warning! Do not set the machine down until the spindle has completely stopped.
Note: During use, keep clothing out of the line of any sparks formed. Sparks from metal grinding can set fire to many types of
clothing in a short time. The risk is less if your outer clothing is made of wool, or flame retardant treated cotton.
Dust
A correctly fitted dust mask, suitable for the activity and in accordance to the relevant standard, must be worn.
Grinding (Fig.11)
When performing grinding operations maintain an angle of approximately 30° between the work surface and the disc face.
Only use abrasives specifically designed for this task.
Cutting
Warning
- Cutting operations should only be attempted with the "cutting" guard fitted to this grinder.
- This guard must be fitted for your safety.
- When performing cutting-off operations do not incline the machine as this can lead to the abrasive wheel becoming
jammed, damaged or excessively and abnormally worn.
- Only use abrasives specifically designed for this task.
As the abrasive disk wears during use, its diameter reduces. This reduces the peripheral speed and the machine's efficiency.
This results in increased load on the grinding machine which if continued will damage the motor. Ensure that the diameter of
the wheel is within 25% of its original size.
Important: Excessive pressure on the machine does not result in a higher abrasive efficiency. Excessive pressure increases
wear and tear on the accessory and will damage the angle grinder which is not covered under the guarantee.

Plug the battery charger unit (9) into a 230V/AC 13amp socket.
The green LED (9.1) will stay it to show the charger has power.
Slide the battery pack into place ensuring the battery terminals and the charger terminals make a good connection Fig.2.
After a few seconds delay the red LED (9.2) will light to show the battery pack is being charged and the green LED will turn off.
Warning!
• Ensure battery pack is connected correctly (Fig.2). Sliding the battery pack on incorrectly may cause damage to the battery/
charger.
