Important!
Following a stoppage (due to overloading), the
cordless equipment starts up again automatically.
Important!
Wait until the machine has reached its top
speed. You can then position the angle grin-
der on the workpiece and machine it.
6.4 Changing the grinding wheels (Fig. 8/9)
Use the face spanner (5) supplied to change the
grinding wheels. The face spanner (5) is stored in
the additional handle (3). Pull the face spanner (5)
out of the additional handle (3) when you need it.
Danger!
For safety reasons, the angle grinder
must not be operated with the face spanner (5)
inserted in it.
•
Simple wheel change by spindle lock:
•
Press the spindle lock and allow the grinding
wheel to latch in place.
•
Open the flange nut with the face spanner.
(Fig. 9)
•
Change the grinding or cutting wheel and
tighten the flange nut with the face spanner.
Notice!
Only ever press the spindle lock when the
motor and grinding spindle are at a stand-
still! You must keep the spindle lock pressed
while you change the wheel!
For grinding or cutting wheels up to approx. 3 mm
thick, screw on the
fl
ange nut with the
fl
at side
facing the grinding or cutting wheel.

6.6 Motor
It is vital for the motor to be well ventilated during
operation. Be sure, therefore, to keep the ventilati-
on holes clean at all times.
6.7 Grinding Wheels
•
Never use a grinding or cutting wheel bigger
than the specified diameter.
•
Before using a grinding or cutting wheel,
check its rated speed.
•
The maximum speed of the grinding or cut-
ting wheel used must be higher than the idle
speed of the angle grinder.
•
Use only grinding and cutting wheels that are
approved for a minimum speed of 8,500 rpm
and a peripheral speed of 56 m/sec.
•
Check the direction of rotation when you use
diamond cutting wheels. The directional arrow
on the diamond cutting wheel must point in
the direction in which the tool rotates.
Warning!
Take special care that the grinding/sanding
wheels are properly stored and transported.
Ensure that the grinding/sanding wheels are
never exposed to shock, jolts or sharp edges (for
example during transport or storage in a toolbox).
This could cause damage (such as cracks) to the
grinding/sanding wheels and place the user in
serious danger.
Warning!
6.8 Operating Modes
6.8.1 Rough grinding (Fig. 14)
Caution: Use the safety device for sanding/
grinding
(included in items supplied).
For the best rough grinding results, hold the grin-
ding wheel at an angle of between 30° and 40° to
the workpiece surface and guide back and forth
over the workpiece in steady movements.
6.8.2 Cutting (Fig. 15)
Caution: Use the safety device for abrasive
cutting
(available as accessory, see 7.3)
When you use the right-angle grinder for cutting
purposes, avoid tilting it in the cutting plane. The
cutting wheel must have a clean cutting edge.
A diamond cutting wheel is best used to cut hard
stone.
Warning!
It is prohibited to use the machine on asbes-
tos materials!
