(Original instructions)
To avoid accumulation of metal chips in the interior of the
grinder, we recommend cleaning the ventilation ducts daily.
Refer to Maintenance.
Warning!
Metal powder accumulates.
Excessive use of the grinding wheel on metals may increase
the risk of electric shock. To reduce the risk, insert the RCD
before use and clean the ventilation ducts daily. Follow the
maintenance instructions below to blow dry compressed air
into the ventilation ducts.
Grinding
Surface Grinding with Grinding Wheels
u
Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool
to the work surface.
u
Apply minimum pressure to the work surface, allowing
the tool to operate at high speed. Grinding rate is greatest
when the tool operates at high speed.
u
Maintain a 20˚ to 30˚ angle between the tool and work
surface.
u
Continuously move the tool in a forward and back motion
to avoid creating gouges in the work surface.
u
Remove the tool from work surface before turning tool off.
Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying it down.
Precautions to take when sanding paint
u
Sanding of lead based paint is NOT RECOMMENDED
due to the difficulty of controlling the contaminated dust.
The greatest danger of lead poisoning is to children and
pregnant women.
u
Since it is difficult to identify whether or not a paint
contains lead without a chemical analysis, we recommend
the following precautions when sanding any paint.
Helpful Hints
u
Hold your angle grinder with one hand on the body and
the other hand firmly around the side handle as shown in
Fig. E.
u
Always position the guard so that as much of the
exposed disc as possible is pointing away from you. ff Be
prepared for a stream of sparks when the disc touches the
metal.
u
Maintain an angle between the disc and work surface
(Fig.D) of approximately 30° when grinding and 10°- 15°
when sanding for best tool control, material
removal, and minimal loading.
Caution!
Use extra care when grinding into a corner
as a sudden, sharp movement of the grinder may be
experienced when the wheel contacts a secondary surface.
Warning!
Always wear eye protection while
operating this power tool.
Cutting metal
When cutting, work with moderate feed, adapted to the
material being cut.
Do not exert pressure onto the cuttingndisc, tilt or oscillate the
machine.
Do not reduce the speed of running down cutting discs by
applying sideward pressure.
The machine must always work in an upgrinding motion.
Otherwise, the danger exists of it being pushed uncontrolled
out of the cut.
When cutting profiles and square bar, it is best to start at the
smallest cross section.
