To remove the wheel, follow the installation procedure in
reverse.

OPERATION

WARNING:
It should never be necessary to force the tool. The
•
weight of the tool applies adequate pressure.
Forcing and excessive pressure could cause
dangerous wheel breakage.
ALWAYS replace wheel if tool is dropped while
•
grinding.
NEVER bang or hit grinding disc or wheel onto
•
work.
Avoid bouncing and snagging the wheel, especially
•
when working corners, sharp edges etc. This can
cause loss of control and kickback.
NEVER use tool with wood cutting blades and other
•
sawblades. Such blades when used on a grinder
frequently kick and cause loss of control leading to
personal injury.

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.
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

CAUTION:
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
Fig.14
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 abrasive cut-off / diamond
wheel (optional accessory)
Fig.15
The direction for mounting the lock nut and the inner
flange varies by wheel thickness. Refer to the table
below.

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.
