Switch
1. To turn the grinder on, hold the rear of the switch, then push forward until
the switch won't move any further.
2. Release the switch to turn the grinder off.
Grinding
1. Grip the grinder securely with two hands so that you have full control at all
times. Starting the grinder will create a sudden jerk in your hands due to
the torque.
2. After starting the tool, apply the grinding wheel to the work-piece.
Note: Do not turn the switch on or off while the grinder is in contact with
the work-piece. It will decrease the switch life and could cause damage to
the work-piece.
3. Tilt the grinder at a 10
°
to 15
°
angle for easy handling and smooth
grinding.
4. Apply the grinding disc to the work surface with a light, steady pressure
for maximum grinding efficiency. It should never be necessary to force the
tool. The weight of the tool applies adequate pressure.
5. The grinding discs are for moderate metal removal on flat or contoured
surfaces. Do not put excessive pressure on the grinding disc. Excessive or
sudden pressure will overload the motor, slow the grinding action, put
dangerous stress on the disc and cause breakage.
Note: the continued use of a worn-out disc may result in disc explosion
and serious injury.
Cutting-off
WARNING: always use the closed guard for cutting-off operations on metal.
While cutting-off, do not press the tool, do not twist and do not turn.
• Being work with the grinding wheel at a 90
°
angle to the work-piece.
• Work with moderation. Do not force the wheel.
• Do not attempt to stop the wheel with lateral pressure.
