ANGLE GRINDER
5. OPERATION
The Line voltage must not exceed the respective specification on the electric tool
by more than +10%.
Check the grinding disc. It must neither be damaged, wet nor cracked. For safety
reasons operate the electric tool idling for one minute after having replaced a
grinding disc. Pay attention to unusual sounds or emerging sparks. Check
afterwards if all parts have been mounted properly.
This electric tool has a special switch. To turn it on push the button into the position
"I". If you then slightly press the button it goes back to the position "0".
Caution! Only press the locking pin when the engine has completely stopped!
For replacing the grinding disc disconnect the electric tool from the power supply.
Then press the locking pin to block the gears. Loosen the Locking nut by using the
hook wrench. Tighten the Locking nut after replacing the grinding disc.
Both carbon brushes have to be replaced at the same time when worn down to 5
mm. They have to match the measures as detailed in the picture below.
For the best abrasive effect move the electric tool steady-going with an angle of 15
to 30 degree (between abrasive disc and workpiece). Do not press the tool too
powerfully against the workpiece when working on an inclined surface. When the
rotation speed of the tool is dropping considerably, you have to reduce the
pressure to ensure a safe and efficient operation. If the tool slows down completely
or is jammed, the power supply has to be turned off immediately.
Situations in which the electric tool must not be used anymore:
-
When insulation, flex or bend protection are damaged
