CAUTION:
•
Never switch on the tool when it is in contact with
the workpiece, it may cause an injury to operator.
•
Always wear safety goggles or a face shield during
operation.
•
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.

Operation with wire cup brush (optional
accessory)
CAUTION:
•
Check operation of brush by running tool with no
load, insuring that no one is in front of or in line with
brush.
•
Do not use brush that is damaged, or which is out
of balance. Use of damaged brush could increase
potential for injury from contact with broken brush
wires.

Unplug tool and place it upside down allowing easy
access to spindle. Remove any accessories on spindle.
Mount wire cup brush onto spindle and tighten with
supplied wrench. When using brush, avoid applying too
much pressure which causes over bending of wires,
leading to premature breakage.
Operation with wire wheel brush (optional
accessory)
CAUTION:
•
Check operation of wire wheel brush by running
tool with no load, insuring that no one is in front of
or in line with the wire wheel brush.
•
Do not use wire wheel brush that is damaged, or
which is out of balance. Use of damaged wire
wheel brush could increase potential for injury from
contact with broken wires.
•
ALWAYS use guard with wire wheel brushes,
assuring diameter of wheel fits inside guard. Wheel
can shatter during use and guard helps to reduce
chances of personal injury.

access to spindle. Remove any accessories on spindle.
Thread wire wheel brush onto spindle and tighten with
the wrenches.
When using wire wheel brush, avoid applying too much
pressure which causes over bending of wires, leading to
premature breakage.
Operation with abrasive cut-off / diamond
wheel (optional accessory)
WARNING:
•
When using an abrasive cut-off / diamond wheel,
be sure to use only the special wheel guard
designed for use with cut-off wheels. (In some
European countries, when using a diamond wheel,
the ordinary guard can be used. Follow the
regulations in your country.)
•
NEVER use cut-off wheel for side grinding.
•
Do not "jam" the wheel or apply excessive
pressure. Do not attempt to make an excessive
depth of cut. Overstressing the wheel increases
the loading and susceptibility to twisting or binding
of the wheel in the cut and the possibility of
kickback, wheel breakage and overheating of the
motor may occur.
•
Do not start the cutting operation in the workpiece.
Let the wheel reach full speed and carefully enter
into the cut moving the tool forward over the
workpiece surface. The wheel may bind, walk up
or kickback if the power tool is started in the
workpiece.
•
During cutting operations, never change the angle
of the wheel. Placing side pressure on the cut-off
wheel (as in grinding) will cause the wheel to crack
and break, causing serious personal injury.
•
A diamond wheel shall be operated perpendicular
to the material being cut.
Mount the inner flange onto the spindle. Fit the
wheel/disc on the inner flange and screw the lock nut
onto the spindle.
Fig.13
When using a more than 7 mm thick diamond wheel or a
abrasive cut-off wheel, overturn the lock nut and screw it
onto the spindle.
