shield with screws. The grinding disc should be able to
rotate freely within the shield.
The closed side of the protection guard must always
point to the operator.
6. CUTTING METAL
WARNING! A protective guard for cut-
ting is required when cutting metal.
When cutting, work with moderate feed, adapted to the
material being cut. Do not exert pressure on the cutting
disc, tilt or oscillate the machine.
Do not reduce the speed of running down cutting discs
by applying sideward pressure.
The machine must always work in an up-grinding
motion. Otherwise, the danger exists of it being pushed
uncontrolled out of the cut. When cutting profiles and
square bar, it is best to start at the smallest cross
section.
WORKING HINTS FOR
YOUR ANGLE GRINDER
If your power tool becomes too hot, run no load for 2-3
minutes to cool the motor.
Never start your angle grinder with the disc/ accessory
in contact with the workpiece.
Always start at no load to achieve maximum speed
then start working.
Do not force the disc to work faster, reducing the Disc’s
moving speed means longer working time.
When grinding, always work with a 15° to 30° angle
between disc and workpiece. Larger angles will cut
ridges into the workpiece and affect the surface finish.
Move the angle grinder across and back and forth over
the workpiece.
When using a cutting disc never change the cutting
angle otherwise you will stall the disc and angle grinder
motor or break the disc.
When cutting, only cut in the opposite direction to the
disc rotation. If you cut in the same direction as the disc
rotation the disc may push itself out of the cut slot.
When cutting very hard material best results can be
achieved with a diamond disc.
When using a diamond disc it will become very hot. If
this happens you will see a full ring of sparks around
the rotating disc. Stop cutting and allow to cool at no
load speed for 2-3 minutes.
Always ensure the workpiece is firmly held or clamped
to prevent movement.
MAINTENANCE
Be sure to unplug the power cord before any
repair work on the machine.
This power tool can keep normal operation without
additional lubrication or special maintenance. There
is no part for replacement for users. Only simple
maintenance is needed based on the following
requirements.
1. Wipe the machine with a dry cloth in time after
using. Do not clean the machine with water or chemical
detergent to avoid affecting the performance of the
casing or causing such accident as electric leakage.
2. Always keep the air inlet clean and unobstructed
to prevent debris from accumulating and affecting the
cooling of the motor.
Also, try not to use it in dusty environment.
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by the manufacturer, a special service center, or an
professional person with equivalent qualifications to
avoid a hazard.
