Installing or removing flex wheel
(optional accessory)
WARNING:
•
Always use specific guard when depressed center
grinding wheel/Multi-disc is on tool. Wheel can shatter
during use and guard helps to reduce chances of
personal injury.
Follow instructions for depressed center grinding wheel/
Multi-disc but also use plastic pad over wheel. See order of
assembly on accessories page in this manual.
OPERATION
WARNING:
•
It should never be necessary to force the tool. The
weight of the tool applies adequate pressure. Forcing
and excessive pressure could cause dangerous wheel
breakage.
•
ALWAYS replace wheel if tool is dropped while grinding.
•
NEVER bang or hit grinding disc or wheel onto work.
•
Avoid bouncing and snagging the wheel, especially
when working corners, sharp edges etc. This can cause
loss of control and kickback.
•
NEVER use tool with wood cutting blades and other
sawblades. Such blades when used on a grinder
frequently kick and cause loss of control leading to
personal injury.
CAUTION:
•
After operation, always switch off the tool and wait until
the wheel has come to a complete stop before putting
the tool down.
Grinding and sanding operation
ALWAYS hold the tool firmly with one hand on rear handle
and the other on the side handle. Turn the tool on and then
apply the wheel or disc to the workpiece.
In general, keep the edge of the wheel or disc at an angle of
about 15 degrees to the workpiece surface.
During the break-in period with a new wheel, do not work the
grinder in the B direction or it will cut into the workpiece.
Once the edge of the wheel has been rounded off by use, the
wheel may be worked in both A and B direction.
