is mounted properly and fixed reliably prior to
the initial and any following operation.
▪ Make sure the power supply voltage corre-
sponds to the value indicated on the name
plate with technical data of the tool.
▪ Always check the position of ON/OFF switch.
The power tool must be connected and dis-
connected to the power supply socket only
when this switch is in OFF position. If the plug
is connected to a receptacle while the power
switch is in the ON position, the power tool
will start operating immediately, which could
cause a serious accident.
▪ Make sure that the cord and the plug are in
order. If the replacement of the supply cord is
necessary, this has to be done by the manu-
facturer or his agent in order to avoid a safety
hazard.
WARNING: Always switch off and un-
plug the power tool prior to any adjustment,
servicing or maintenance.
▪ When using diamond cutting discs, pay atten-
tion that the direction-of-rotation arrow on the
diamond cutting disc and the direction of rota-
tion of the machine (see direction-of-rotation
arrow on the machine head) agree.
▪ Make sure the grinding wheel diameter and
thickness do not exceed the values specified
on the name plate. The peripheral speed in-
dicated on the wheel must not be less than
80 m/s. The wheels must be stored according
the recommendations of the manufacturer.
▪ In case the work area is remote from the pow-
er source, use as short as practicable exten-
sion cord with proper cross-section.
▪ Check that the auxiliary handle is properly
mounted and reliably tightened.
SWITCHING ON - SWITCHING Off
The angle grinder is secured against uninten-
tional switching on.
▪ Switching on: First push forward the auxiliary
button 8 positioned at the bottom of the main
handle, then press ON/OFF switch 7. For
continuous operation switch 7 can be locked
(only for models with index P in the abbre-
viation). In this case while holding switch 7,
press button 8 and then release switch 7.
▪ Switching off: Release switch 7; in case the
switch is locked, first press and then release
that switch.
Original instructions
In case of mains drop-out (or temporary
drop-out for time t > 0.5 s), when the ON/
Off switch is in ON position, the machine
should not operate after supply recovering.
To start operating the machine, first switch
off and then switch on the lever of ON/Off
switch 7.
WHEEL GUARD
WARNING: The wheel guard 3.1 for
grinding wheel or the wheel guard 3.2 for
cutting wheel (for grinding wheel 2.1 or cut-
ting wheel 2.2 accordingly) must always be
mounted on the machine!
WARNING: Before performing the fol-
lowing operations, switch off and unplug the
machine.
Mounting the wheel guard (fig. 1)
-
Rotate the black plastic ring (Fig. 2a), so
that the crevice S of the ring coincides with the
groove for the tooth of the fixing lever L.
-
Place the wheel guard in non-operating
position (Fig.2a) so that the four teeth coin-
cide with the four grooves in the bearing seat
(Fig.2b).
-
Press the fastening lever L (fig.3) to re-
lease it.
-
Press the wheel guard down and rotate it
in the necessary operating position (Fig.4).
-
Release the fastening lever L to a stable
position in which the wheel guard is fixed (the
fixing lever tooth enters into one of the guard
grooves).
Rotating the wheel guard in a new operat¬ing
position
-
Press the fastening lever L (Fig.3) to re-
lease it.
-
Rotate the wheel guard to the necessary
