Before Putting into Operation

Battery Charging
A battery that is new or has not been used for a
longer period does not develop its full capacity
until after approximately 5 charging /discharging
cycles.
To remove the battery 1, press the unlocking but-
tons 2 and pull out the battery downwards. Do not
exert any force.
The battery is equipped with an NTC temperature
control which allows charging only within a tem-
perature range of between 0 °C and 45 °C.
A long battery service life is achieved in this man-
ner.
A significantly reduced working period after
charging indicates that the batteries are used and
must be replaced.
Observe the notes on environmental protec-
tion.
Mounting the
Protective Devices
Before any work on the machine itself, re-
move the battery.
Protection Guard
For work with roughing or cutting discs,
the protection guard 6 must be mounted.
Open the clamping lever 7.
Place the protection guard 6 onto the spindle col-
lar of the machine head as shown in the illustra-
tion. The encoding keys of the protection guard
must match with the respective recesses on the
spindle collar. Ensure correct positioning of the
tool holder 5.

tion to the required position (working position).

ner that sparks are not emitted in the direc-
tion of the operator.

clamping lever 7.
Note: Encoding keys on the protection guard 6
ensure that only a protection guard that fits the
machine type can be mounted.

iary handle 4 must be mounted.
