WARNING: Do not apply too much pressure to the machine whilst
cutting. Excessive pressure does not result in more effective or faster
cutting, but will in fact cause premature wear of the cutting disc and
increase wear and tear on the machine.
Note: The cutting disc will wear during use, and the disc diameter
will gradually reduce in size. The smaller the disc becomes, the more
strain will be placed on the motor. To avoid damage to the machine,
only use cutting discs that are within approximately 25% of the
original size.
Using a cup brush or wire wheel
• Always check that the no-load speed of the grinder does not
exceed the maximum speed of the cup brush or wire wheel
• Ensure that no part of the cup brush or wire wheel can come into
contact with the machine housing
• Run the grinder, with cup brush or wire wheel attached, for at least
30 seconds before use to check that the cup brush or wire wheel is
secure, and properly balanced
• When using a wire cup brush or wire wheel, avoid applying excess
pressure. Using greater force will not make the cup brush or wire
wheel more effective, but will bend the wires out of shape and
damage the brush
Accessories
• A wide range of compatible accessories, including the cutting
wheel guard, grinding, cutting and flap discs, diamond wheels, wire
cups and more, is available from your GMC stockist
Maintenance
WARNING: Always remove the plug from the mains power supply
before carrying out any maintenance/cleaning.
Cleaning
• Keep your machine clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause
internal parts to wear quickly, shortening the machine’s service
life. Clean the body of your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth.
If available, use clean, dry, compressed air to blow through the
ventilation holes
Brushes
• Over time the carbon brushes inside the motor may become worn
• Excessively worn brushes may cause loss of power, intermittent
failure, or visible sparking
• If you suspect that the brushes may be worn, have them replaced
at an authorised GMC service centre
Note: One pair of spare brushes is supplied with this tool.
Storage
• Store this tool carefully in a secure, dry place out of the reach
of children
Disposal
Always adhere to national regulations when disposing of power tools
that are no longer functional and are not viable for repair.
• Do not dispose of power tools, or other waste electrical and
electronic equipment (WEEE), with household waste
• Contact your local waste disposal authority for information on the
correct way to dispose of power tools
