flange is fitted facing towards the disc to provide improved
support for the disc hole (See Fig. C.1). Always ensure your disc
is securely clamped.
Adjusting the protection guard
Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains plug.
For work with grinding or cutting discs, the protection guard
must be mounted.
The coded projection (11) on the protection guard (10)
ensures that only a guard that fits the machine type can be
mounted.
Loosen the clamping screw (9), if necessary.
Place the protection guard (10) with coded projection (11) into
the coded groove on the spindle collar of the machine head and
rotate to the required position (working position).
The closed side of the protection guard (10) must always point
to the operator.
Tighten clamping screw (9).
OPERATION
STARTING OPERATION
To start the power tool, push the on/off switch (3) forward.
To lock the on/off switch (3), press the on/off switch (3) down
at the front until it engages.
To switch off the power tool, release the on/off switch (3) or, if
it is locked, briefly push down the back of the on/off switch (3)
and then release it. (See Fig. D)
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
• Clamp the workpiece if it does not remain stationary due to its
own weight.
• Do not strain the machine so heavily that it comes to a
standstill.
• Grinding and cutting discs become very hot while working; do
not touch until they have cooled.
• Pull the plug from the socket-outlet when not using the
machine.
With the plug inserted and mains voltage existing,
the power tool still has low power consumption even when it
switched off.
1. HAND GRIP AREAS
Always hold your angle grinder firmly with both hands when
operating (See Fig. E).
2. ROUGH GRINDING
The best roughing results are achieved when setting the
machine at an angle of 30° to 40°. Move the machine back and
forth with moderate pressure. In this manner, the workpiece
will not become too hot, does not discolour and no grooves are
formed.
WARNING: Never use a cutting disc for roughing.
