4 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
ANGLE GRINDER CONTROLS
Looking at the Angle Grinder from the top the spindle lock
is located at the front centre of the gearbox casing (Pic. 2).
The location points for the handle (to suit left or right handed
operators) are located each side of the grey gearbox
housing at the front of the angle grinder. A direction arrow
to show the direction of disc rotation is located at the front
of the grey gearbox housing.
INSTALLING GRINDING DISCS
Make sure the Angle Grinder is unplugged from the mains
supply socket. Turn the Angle Grinder onto its back (Pic.3).
Locate and depress the spindle lock button. Using the
wrench supplied insert the pins into the holes on the disc
clamping nut. Turn the wrench anti-clockwise to release the
disc clamping nut. If the disc backing washer is removed it
must be replaced the correct way round. The correct way to
fit this onto the shaft can be seen in Pic. 4.
NOTE: There are different types of discs used for different
applications. Select the correct one for the work being
done. Make sure the disc backing washer flats are located
correctly with the flats on the shaft. The grinding disc should
be placed onto the Angle Grinder with the writing facing
upwards.
INSTALLING A NEW DISC
Place the disc over the shaft locating it onto the disc backing
washer. It can be seen that the backing washer has a raised
lip.
The hole in the disc should match the diameter of the raised
lip, keeping the disc mounted central; refit the disc clamping
