Prior to any conversion work: Pull the mains plug from
the socket. The machine must be switched
off and the spindle at a standstill.
For reasons of safety, attach the cutting safety

10.3 Securing/releasing the clamping nut:
Securing the clamping nut:
The 2 sides of the clamping nut (D1-4) are different. Screw
the clamping nut onto the spindle (D1-2) as follows:
A) For thin grinding discs:
The edge o f the clamping nut (D1-4) faces upwards
so that the thin grinding wheel can be attached
securely.
B) For thick grinding discs:
The edge o
lamping nut (D1-4) faces
downwards
so th
f the cat the clamping
nut can be attached
securely to the spindle (D1-2).
Releasing the clamping nut:
Lock the spindle (see chapter 10.1). Turn the clamping nut
(D1-4) anticlockwise using the clamping wrench
(D1-5) to unscrew.
10.4 Working instructions:
Grinding and sanding operations:
Press down the machine evenly on the surface and move back
and forth so that the surface of the workpiece does not become
too hot.
Rough grinding:
Position the machine at an angle of 30° – 40° for the best
working results.
Cutting-off operations:
Always work against the run of the disc
(see illustration). Otherwise there is the
danger of the machine kicking back from
the cut out of control. Guide the machine
evenly at a speed
suitable for the material being processed. Do not tilt, apply
excessive force or sway from side to side.
Wire brushing:
Press down the machine evenly.
