do not allow any interference of the wire wheel or brush
with the guard. Wire wheel or brush may expand in diameter due
to work load and centrifugal forces.
Additional Safety and Working Instructions
When grinding metal, flying sparks are produced. Take care that
no persons are endangered. Because of the danger of fire, no
combustible materials should be located in the vicinity (spark flight
zone). Do not use dust extraction.
Avoid flying sparks and sanding dust hit your body.
Never reach into the danger area of the machine when it is running.
Chips and splinters must not be removed while the machine is
running.
Immediately switch off the machine in case of considerable vibra-
tions or if other malfunctions occur. Check the machine in order to
find out the cause.
Under extreme conditions (e.g. smooth-grinding metals with
the arbour and vulcanized fibre grinding disk), significant
contamination can build up on the inside of the angle grinder. For
safety reasons, in such conditions a ground fault interrupter must
be connected in series. If the ground fault interrupter trips the
machine must be sent for service.
Do not let any metal parts enter the airing slots - danger of short
circuit!
MAINS CONNECTION
Connect only to single-phase AC system voltage as indicated on
the rating plate. It is also possible to connect to sockets without an
earthing contact as the design conforms to safety class II.
Appliances used at many different locations including wet room
and open air must be connected via a residual current device (FI,
RCD, PRCD) of 30mA or less.
Only plug-in when machine is switched off.
AG 22-180, AG 22-230: Inrush currents cause short-time voltage
drops. Under unfavourable power supply conditions, other
equipment may be affected. If the system impedance of the power
supply is lower than 0,2 Ohm, disturbances are unlikely to occur.
SPECIFIED CONDITIONS OF USE
The angle grinder is intended for grinding and cutting metal, stone
and ceramic materials as well as sanding and wire brushing.
Use the cutting guard from the accessories range for cutting
application.
Please refer to the instructions supplied by the accessory manu-
facturer.
The machine is suitable only for working without water.
WORKING INSTRUCTIONS
For accessories intended to be fitted with threaded hole wheel,
ensure that the thread in the wheel is long enough to accept the
spindle length.
Always use and store the cutting and grinding disks according to
the manufacturer‘s instructions.
Always use the correct guard for cutting and grinding.
The grinding surface of the centre depressed disks must be moun-
ted min. 2 mm below the plane of the guard lip.
The adjusting nut must be tightened before starting to work with
the machine.
Always use the auxiliary handle.
The workpiece must be fixed if it is not heavy enough to be steady.
Never move the workpiece towards the rotating disk by hand.
RESTART CUTOUT
AGV 22-180 E, AG 22-230 E, AGV 22-230 E:
Machines with a lockable switch are supplied with a restart cutout.
This prevents the machine restarting by itself after a power failure.
When resuming work, switch the machine off and then switch it
back on again.
STARTING CURRENT LIMITER
AGV 22-180 E, AGV 22-230, AG 22-230 E, AGV 22-230 E:
The starting current for the machine is several times greater than
rated current. The starting current limiter reduces the starting cur-
rent to such an extent that a fuse (16 A, slow-blow) is not tripped.
SMOOTH START
AGV 22-180 E, AGV 22-230, AG 22-230 E, AGV 22-230 E:
Electronic smooth start for save use prevents jerky run-up of the
machine.
MAINTENANCE
The ventilation slots of the machine must be kept clear at all times.
If the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to be
done by the manufacturer or his agent in order to avoid a safety
hazard.
Use only Milwaukee accessories and Milwaukee spare parts. Should
components need to be replaced which have not been described, please
contact one of our Milwaukee service agents (see our list of guarantee/
service addresses).
If needed, an exploded view of the tool can be ordered. Please state
the Article No. as well as the machine type printed on the label
and order the drawing at your local service agents or directly at:
