ANGLE GRINDER
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR ANGLE GRINDERS
The machine is light, handy, totally insulated and designed in compliance with the international
specifications CEE 20. Provided it is serviced as described in these instructions, the machine will
serve you for a long time.
VOLTAGE
Before you use the machine for the first time, check that the voltage marked on the rating plate
is the same as your mains voltage.
SWITCH
The angle grinder is fitted with a safety switch to prevent accidents. To switch on, press the
rocker switch and the button on the side simultaneously.
REPLACING THE GRINDING WHEEL
Pull out the power plug.
Simple wheel change by spindle lock:
1.
Press the spindle lock and allow the grinding wheel to latch in place.
2.
Open the flange nut with the face spanner.
3.
Change the grinding or cutting wheel and tighten the flange nut with the
face spanner.
Important!
Only ever press the spindle lock when the motor and grinding spindle are at a standstill!
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 flange nut with the flat
side facing the grinding or cutting wheel.
TEST RUN FOR NEW GRINDING WHEELS
Allow the right-angle grinder to run in idle for at least 1 minute with the grinding or cutting
wheel fitted in place. Vibrating wheels are to be replaced immediately.
ADJUSTABLE HANDLE
You can adjust the handle by turning it through 90° to the left and right. To do so, pull back the
orange locking plate a little and turn the handle through 90° to the right or left.
Important! The orange locking plate has to engage with an audible click! Check that the handle
is securely locked in the required position.
MOTOR
It is vital for the motor to be well ventilated during operation. Be sure, therefore, to keep the
ventilation holes clean at all times.
