Mounting and Removing the Rubber Backing Pad
(fig. d & e)
The rubber-backing pad is available as an option. The guard
is not required when using the tool for sanding with the
backing pad.
Mounting
u
Remove the guard from the tool.
u
Press the backing pad (16) onto the spindle (7). The inner
flange is not required (fig. E)
u
Position the abrasive disc (17) on the pad.
u
Screw the threaded flange (6) onto the spindle.
u
Press in the spindle lock button (3) and rotate the spindle
until it locks. Keeping the lock button pressed in, tighten
the threaded flange (6) with the spanner (15) provided
(fig. D)
u
Release the spindle lock.
Removing
u
Follow the procedure above in reverse order.
Mounting the Side Handle (fig. f)
Screw the side handle (2) tightly into one of the three holes (18) on
the gear case.
instruction for use
u
Always observe the safety instructions and applicable
regulations.
u
Ensure all materials to be ground or cut are secured in
place.
u
Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool. Do not exert side
pressure on the grinding wheel or cutting disc.
u
Avoid overloading. Should the tool become hot, let it run a
few minutes under no load condition.
u
Slide after push
Prior to operation
u
Install the appropriate guard and disc or wheel. Do not
use excessively worn discs or wheels.
u
Be sure the inner and threaded flanges are mounted
correctly.
u
Make sure the disc or wheel rotates in the direction of the
arrows on the accessory and the tool.
Switching on and off (fig. a)
@
Make sure that the switch is in the "OFF” position
before plugging in.
u
To run the tool, slide the ON/OFF switch (1) forward to the
“ON” position.
u
To stop the tool, slide the switch backwards to the "OFF”
position.
u
Always switch off the tool when work is finished and before
unplugging.
@
Do not switch the tool ON and OFF when under load.
Handy Hints (fig. G)
u
Hold your angle grinder with one hand on the body and the
other hand firmly around the side handle.
u
Always position the guard so that as much of the exposed
disc as possible is pointing away from you.
u
Be prepared for a stream of sparks when the disc touches
the metal.
Grinding (fig. H)
Use a depressed center Type 27 disc. Hold the tool at an
angle of approximately 20º-30º to work for grinding.
Wire Brushing
Use wire brushes to clean welds, metal corners, and angles,
and to remove paint.
@
Use a guard with wire brushes and wheels. Operators
and others in the area should wear appropriate eye,
faceand body protection. Strands of wire may break
and fly off when wire wheels and brushes are in use.
Sanding with abrasive discs (fig. i)
When using an abrasive disc and rubber-backing pad, hold
the tool so that an angle of 5º to 15º exists between thedisc
and the work. Using an angle of 5º to 15º will allow you to
produce a smooth surface. If only the outer edge of the
sanding disc is pressed flat against the work, the sanding
action will be irregular and bumpy and the tool will be difficult
to control.
edge Grinding and cutting
@
Do not use edge grinding/ cutting wheels for surface
grinding applications because these wheels are
notdesigned for side pressures encountered with
surface grinding. Wheel breakage and injury may
result.
Edge grinding and cutting can be performed with type 27
wheels designed and specificed for this purpose. Protect
yourself during edge grinding and cutting by directing the open
side of the guard toward a surface. Edge grinding andcutting
wheels should contact the work surface only at the edge of the
