750W ANGLE GRINDER
EN
mains voltage existing, the power tool still has low
power consumption even when it switched off.
1. Hand grip areas (See Fig. G)
Always hold your angle grinder firmly with both hands
when operating (See Fig. G).
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.
3. Cutting
WARNING! For cutting metal, always work
with the wheel guard for cutting (not
supplied).
When cutting, do not press, tilt or oscillate the
machine. Work with moderate feed, adapted to the
material being cut.
Do not reduce the speed of running down cutting
discs by applying sideward pressure.
The direction in which the cutting is performed is
important.
The machine must always work in an up-grinding
motion. Therefore, never move the machine in the
other direction! Otherwise, the danger exists of it
being pushed uncontrolled out of the cut.
WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR
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 30° to 40° 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 cooling at no
load speed for 2-3 minutes.
Always ensure the workpiece is firmly held or clamped
to prevent movement.
MAINTENANCE
Remove the plug from the socket before carrying
out any adjustment, servicing or maintenance.
Your power tool requires no additional lubrication or
maintenance.
There are no user serviceable parts in your power
tool. Never use water or chemical cleaners to clean
your power tool. Wipe clean with a dry cloth. Always
store your power tool in a dry place. Keep the motor
ventilation slots clean. Keep all working controls free
of dust. Occasionally you may see sparks through the
ventilation slots. This is normal and will not damage
your power tool.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly
qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Although your new angle grinder is really very simple
to operate, if you do experience problems, please
check the following:
1. If your grinder will not operate check the power at
the main plug.
2. If your grinder wheel wobbles or vibrates, check
that outer flange is tight, check that the wheel is
correctly located on the flange plate.
3. If there is any evidence that the wheel is
damaged do not use as the damaged wheel may
disintegrate, remove it and replace with a new
wheel. Dispose of old wheels sensibly.
4. If working on aluminum or a similar soft alloy, the
wheel will soon become clogged and will not grind
effectively.
