Operating Instructions
G
8. SOFT START
Internal electronic components allow the motor speed to increase slowly, which reduces
the “twisting” effect on your wrists due to the high power motor.
WARNING:
Make sure the disc has achieved full speed before starting grinding or
cutting operations.
9. TO USE THE GRINDER
WARNING: Do not switch the grinder on whilst the disc is in contact with the work
piece. Allow the disc to reach full speed before starting to grind.
Hold your angle grinder with one hand on the main handle and other hand firmly around the
auxiliary handle.
Always position the guard so that as much of the exposed disc as possible is pointing away
from you.
Be prepared for a stream of sparks when the disc touches the metal.
Grinding(SEE FIG E)
For best tool control, material removal and minimum overloading, maintain an angle
between the disc and work surface of approximately 15
o
-30
o
when grinding.
Use caution when working into corners as contact with the intersecting surface may cause
the grinder to jump or twist.
When grinding is complete allow the work piece to cool. Do not touch the hot surface.
Cutting(SEE FIG G)
WARNING:
For cutting metal, always work with the wheel guard for cutting
When cutting, do not press, tilt or oscillate the tool. Work with moderate feed,
adapted to the material being cut.
Do not reduce the speed of running down cutting discs by applying sideward pressure.
The direction in which the cutting is performed is important.
The tool must always work in an up-grinding motion. Therefore, never move the tool in the
other direction! Otherwise, the danger exists of it being pushed uncontrolled out of the cut.
