Installing or removing wheel guard
(For depressed center wheel,
multi-disc / abrasive cut-off wheel,
diamond wheel)
WARNING:
When using a depressed center
wheel / multi-disc, the wheel guard must be fitted
on the tool so that the closed side of the guard
always points toward the operator.
WARNING:
When using an abrasive cut-off /
diamond wheel, be sure to use only the special
wheel guard designed for use with cut-off wheels.
(In some European countries, when using a diamond
wheel, the ordinary guard can be used. Follow the
regulations in your country.)
Mount the wheel guard with the protrusions on the
wheel guard band aligned with the notches on the bear
-
ing box. Then rotate the wheel guard to such an angle
that it can protect the operator according to work. Be
sure to tighten the screw securely.
To remove wheel guard, follow the installation proce

OPERATION
WARNING:
It should never be necessary to
force the tool.
The weight of the tool applies ade
-
quate pressure. Forcing and excessive pressure
could cause dangerous wheel breakage.
WARNING:
ALWAYS replace wheel if tool is
dropped while grinding.
WARNING:
NEVER bang or hit grinding disc
or wheel onto work.
WARNING:
Avoid bouncing and snagging
the wheel, especially when working corners,
sharp edges etc.
This can cause loss of control and
kickback.
WARNING:
NEVER use tool with wood cutting
blades and other saw blades.
Such blades when
used on a grinder frequently kick and cause loss of
control leading to personal injury.
