Before Use; Fitting The Side Handle - Hilti DCG 230-DB Manual De Instrucciones

6 Before use

WARNING
Never use the power tool without the guard.

6.1 Fitting the side handle

WARNING
The side handle must be fitted for all types of work.
The side handle may be screwed onto the power tool on
the right or left.
6.2 Fitting and removing the guard 3
NOTE
The clamping ring at the spindle collar has already been
adjusted to the correct clamping diameter by way of the
adjusting screw. If the tension is too low when the guard
is fitted, the adjusting nut can be tightened slightly to
increase the tension.
The guard is equipped with a segmented locating ring. In
order to ensure that only the correct guard can be fitted,
the shortest of the eight segments on the ring features a
keyed locating lug. The keyed locating lug also prevents
the guard from coming into contact with the disc.
1. Disconnect the supply cord plug from the power
outlet.
2. Release the clamping lever.
3. Press the guard onto the drive spindle collar.
4. Position the guard with its segmented locating ring
in the guide on the spindle collar in such a way that
the segment with the keyed locating lug can engage
in the groove on the spindle collar.
5. Rotate the guard to the required position.
6. CAUTION The closed side of the guard must
always face the operator.
Secure the guard by closing the clamping lever.
6.3 Adjusting the guard 4
1. Disconnect the supply cord plug from the power
outlet.
2. Release the clamping lever.
3. Rotate the guard to the desired position.
4. Close the clamping lever.
6.4 Fitting the cutting / grinding disc
DANGER
Check that the speed rating printed on the cutting
or grinding disc is equal to or higher than the rated
speed of the power tool.
DANGER
Check the condition of the grinding disc before us-
ing it. Do not use discs that are broken, cracked or
damaged in any way.
6.5 Using the Kwik-Lock clamping nut with
grinding / cutting discs
CAUTION
When operating the power tool, take care to ensure
that the Kwik-Lock nut does not come into contact
with the work surface. Do not use a damaged Kwik-
Lock nut.

brushes, rubber backing pads, tuck pointing discs (spe-
cial discs used for joint repair) or with diamond cup
wheels.
6.5.1 Fitting grinding / cutting discs using the
Kwik-Lock clamping nut 5
