mended purposes, otherwise they could disintegrate,
become damaged or cause accidents.
Roughing:
Never use cutting discs for
roughing or grinding!
M ove the angle grinder using even
pressure to and fro over the workpiece.
H old the roughing or grinding disc at
a flat angle to the workpiece when
working on a soft material. Use a
slightly steeper angle for harder ma-
terials.
Disc-cutting:
Never use roughing or
grinding discs for cutting!
O nly use certified fibre-reinforced cut-
ting or grinding discs approved for use at
circumferential speeds of not less than 80 m / s.
CAUTION! The disc continues to rotate after
the device has been switched off. Do not at-
tempt to slow it down by pressing on the side
of the disc.
S ecurely support the workpiece. Use
clamps or a vice to grip the workpiece firmly.
This is much safer than holding it in your hand.

W hen working always hold the device
securely with both hands (see Fig. D).
Always keep proper footing and balance.
F or the best grinding performance move the
device evenly to and fro over the workpiece
maintaining an angle of 15° to 30° (between
grinding disc and workpiece).
W hen working on inclined surfaces do
not press the device hard down on to
the workpiece. If the speed slows greatly,
use less pressure. This will allow you to work
more effectively and safely. If the device sudden-
ly stops due to it becoming retarded or trapped,
pull the mains plug from the socket immediately.
C utting: Advance the device at an
appropriate rate. Do not incline the
cutting disc.
