For grinding discs, the flange (6) is fitted with the
raised portion facing towards the disc (Fig. C3).
f
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

without using the inner and threaded flanges.
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
f
Always observe the safety instructions and applicable
regulations.
f
Ensure all materials to be ground are secured in
palce.
f
Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool. Do not exert
side pressure on the grinding wheel or cutting disc.
f
Avoid overloading. Should the tool become hot, let it
run a few minutes under no load condition.
f
Slide after push
Prior to Operation
f
Install the appropriate guard and disc or wheel. Do not
use excessively worn discs or wheels.
f
Be sure the inner and threaded flanges are mounted
correctly.
f
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)
¡Warning! Make sure that the switch is in the “OFF”
position before plugging in.
f
To run the tool, slide the ON/OFF switch (1) forward to
the “ON” position.
f
To stop the tool, slide the switch backwards to the
“OFF” position.
f
Always switch off the tool when work is finished and
before unplugging.
¡Warning! Do not switch the tool ON and OFF when
under load.
HANDY HINTS (FIG. G)
f
Hold your angle grinder with one hand on the body
and the other hand firmly around the side handle.
f
Always position the guard so that as much of the
exposed disc as possible is pointing away from you.
f
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.
¡Warning! 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.
Edge Grinding and Cutting
¡Warning! Do not use edge grinding 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 can be performed with type 27 wheels
designed and specificed for this purpose. Protect yourself
during edge grinding by directing the open side of the
guard toward a surface. Edge grinding wheels should
contact the work surface only at the edge of the wheel,
not on the top or bottom of the wheel.Side pressure on the
wheel could lead to breakage of the wheel.
MAINTENANCE
Your Stanley power tool has been designed to operate
over a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance.
Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper
tool care and regular cleaning.Your tool is not user-
serviceable. Take the tool to an authorized Stanley repair
agent.
