NOTE
Diamond discs must be replaced when the cutting or
grinding performance drops significantly. This generally
is the case when the segments reach a height of less
than ¹⁄₁₆". Other discs must be replaced when the cutting
performance drops significantly or other parts of the angle
grinder (not the disc) come into contact with the material
you are working on. Abrasive discs generally have to be
replaced when the durability date has been reached.
1. Clean the clamping flange.
2. Fit the clamping flange onto the drive spindle.
3. Fit the insert tool.
4. Screw on the clamping nut corresponding to the
type of disc fitted
11
.
5.
CAUTION Do not press the spindle lockbutton
before the drive spindle has stopped rotating.
Press the spindle lockbutton and hold it in this
position.
6. Use the wrench to tighten the clamping nut securely
and then release the spindle lockbutton.
7. To remove the disc from the power tool, follow the
instructions for fitting the disc but carry out the steps
in the reverse order.
6.4 Fitting and removing accessories (e.g. discs,
brushes) with integrated thread
1. Screw the accessory onto the drive spindle.
2.
CAUTION Do not press the spindle lockbutton
before the drive spindle has stopped rotating.
Press the spindle lockbutton and hold it in this
position.
3. Use the open-end wrench to tighten the accessory
securely and then release the spindle lockbutton.
4. To remove this, follow the instructions for fitting the
module but carry out the steps in the reverse order.
6.5 Rotating the gearing section
12
NOTE
To allow the power tool to be used safely and without
fatigue in all positions (e.g. on / off switch facing upwards),
the gearing section can be rotated to one of four positions
at 90° intervals.
1. Disconnect the supply cord plug from the power
outlet.
2. Clean the power tool.
3. Remove the side handle from the power tool.
4. Remove the four screws from the gearing section.
5. Rotate the gearing section to the desired position
without pulling it away from the power tool.
6. Secure the gearing section by inserting and tighten-
ing the four screws.
7. Fit the side handle.
7 Operation
NOTE
Adjust the position of the guard to suit the requirements
of the work being done.
DANGER
Wear ear protectors.
Exposure to noise can cause hear-
ing loss.
WARNING
Test new cutting or grinding discs by allowing them
to run at maximum speed in a protected area for at
least 60 seconds.
WARNING
Slits cut in loadbearing walls of buildings or other struc-
tures may influence the statics of the structure, especially
when steel reinforcing bars or load-bearing components
are cut through.
Consult the structural engineer, ar-
chitect, or person in charge of the building project
before beginning the work.
WARNING
The electric supply voltage must comply with the
information given on the type identification plate on
the power tool.
WARNING
Always use the side handle with the power tool.
WARNING
Never use the power tool without the guard.
CAUTION
Use clamps or a vice to hold the workpiece securely.
WARNING
Cutting or grinding may cause splintering of the material.
Wear eye protection.
DANGER
The operator and bystanders must wear breathing
protection if the work causes dust.
WARNING
Avoid touching rotating parts. Switch the power tool
on only after bringing it into position at the workpiece.
