Working procedures
NOTE
►
Grinding tools should only be used for the
recommended applications. Otherwise, they
can break, be damaged or cause injuries.
Rough grinding:
Never use cutting discs for rough
grinding!
■
Move the angle grinder with moderate pres-
sure back and forth over the workpiece.
■
For soft material, move the rough grinding
disc at a shallow angle over the workpiece;
for hard material at a slightly steeper angle.
Abrasive cutting:
Never use rough grinding discs for
cutting!
■
Use only tested fibre-reinforced cutting or
grinding discs
that are approved for a circum-
ferential speed of not less than 80 m/s.
CAUTION!
The grinder continues running after being turned
off. Do not try to brake it by applying lateral
counterpressure.
■
Secure the workpiece!
Use clamps/a vice to
hold the workpiece firmly in place. This is much
safer than simply holding it in your hand.
■
Always switch off the appliance before put-
ting it away and wait for the appliance to
come to a complete standstill.
■
Use the appliance only for dry cutting or
sanding.
■
The additional handle must be mounted on
the appliance for all work.
■
Materials containing asbestos may not be
processed.
Asbestos is a known carcinogen.
Tip! This symbol indicates proper
behaviour.
HAZARD! ALWAYS GUIDE THE
APPLIANCE THROUGH THE
WORKPIECE IN REVERSE ROTATION.
►
In the opposite direction there is a risk of
kickback. The appliance can be pushed out
of the cut.
■
Always switch the appliance on before apply-
ing it to the workpiece.
After completing the
task, lift the appliance from the workpiece and
then switch it off.
■
Always hold the appliance firmly with two
hands while working.
Ensure that your stance
is secure and stable.
■
For an optimum grinding effect, move the ap-
pliance evenly at an angle of 15° to 30° (be-
tween grinding disc and workpiece) backwards
and forwards.
■
When working on angled surfaces, do not
exert great force on the workpiece.
If the
rotational speed drops significantly, you must
reduce the pressure exerted to allow safe and
effective working. If the appliance suddenly
brakes completely or jams, it must be switched
off immediately.
■
Cutting: Work at a moderate feed rate and
do not tilt the cutting disc.
■
Roughing and cutting discs become very
hot – let them cool down completely before
touching them.
■
Never use the appliance for purposes other
than the ones for which it was designed.
■
Always make sure that the appliance is
turned off before fitting the battery.
■
In the event of danger, turn off the appliance
and remove the battery.
Ensure that the ap-
pliance is easily and quickly accessible in the
event of an emergency.
