continuous operation over an extended period of time is

MAIN HANDLE
The main handle can be set to any of three positions (0
and 90 degrees) right and left by pressing the rotary lock
button (4).
AUXILIARY HANDLE
The auxiliary handle (3) can be attached to either side of
the gear box, or the upper part of the gear box.
FLANGES
Flanges supplied with this model EAG85115, can be used
for grinding and cut off wheels.
MOUNTING THE GRINDING WHEEL
1.
Attach the disc flange (6), the grinding wheel (1) and the
clamp nut (7) to the spindle shaft (8).
Be sure the disc flange is properly seated on the spindle
shaft.
2.
Depress the spindle lock button (10) on the right side of
the gear case.
3.
Using the wrench (9) provided, tighten the clamp nut in
a clockwise direction.
OPERATING
KEEP SAFETY GUARDS IN PLACE.
NEVER COVER THE AIR VENTS SINCE THEY MUST
ALWAYS BE OPEN FOR PROPER MOTOR COOLING.
The key to efficient operating is controlling the pressure and
surface contact between the disc and work piece. Flat
surfaces are ground at an acute angle, usually 10 to 20
degrees with the work piece. Allow the disc to reach full speed
before starting to grind. Too great an angle causes
concentration of pressure on a small area which may gouge
or burn work surface.
MAINTENANCE
After use, check the tool to make sure that it is in top
condition.
WARNING: To ensure safety and reliability,
all repairs should be performed by an
AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER or other
QUALIFIED SERVICE ORGANIZATION.
