OPERATION 

 

WARNING: 

• 

It should never be necessary to force the tool. The 
weight of the tool applies adequate pressure. 
Forcing and excessive pressure could cause 
dangerous wheel breakage. 

• 

ALWAYS replace wheel if tool is dropped while 
grinding. 

• 

NEVER bang or hit grinding disc or wheel onto 
work. 

• 

Avoid bouncing and snagging the wheel, especially 
when working corners, sharp edges etc. This can 
cause loss of control and kickback. 

• 

NEVER use tool with wood cutting blades and other 
sawblades. Such blades when used on a grinder 
frequently kick and cause loss of control leading to 
personal injury. 

CAUTION: 

• 

After operation, always switch off the tool and wait 
until the wheel has come to a complete stop before 
putting the tool down. 

Grinding and sanding operation 

ALWAYS hold the tool firmly with one hand on rear 
handle and the other on the side handle. Turn the tool on 
and then apply the wheel or disc to the workpiece. 
In general, keep the edge of the wheel or disc at an angle 
of about 15 degrees to the workpiece surface. 
During the break-in period with a new wheel, do not work 
the grinder in the B direction or it will cut into the 
workpiece. Once the edge of the wheel has been 
rounded off by use, the wheel may be worked in both A 
and B direction.

CAUTION: 

• 

Check operation of brush by running tool with no 
load, insuring that no one is in front of or in line with 
brush. 

• 

Do not use brush that is damaged, or which is out of 
balance. Use of damaged brush could increase 
potential for injury from contact with broken brush
