CAUTION:
Never switch on the tool when it
is in contact with the workpiece, it may cause an
injury to operator.
CAUTION:
Always wear safety goggles or a
face shield during operation.
CAUTION:
After operation, always switch off
the tool and wait until the wheel has come to a
complete stop before putting the tool down.
CAUTION:
ALWAYS hold the tool firmly with
one hand on housing and the other on the side
grip (handle).
Grinding and sanding operation
► Fig.20
Turn the tool on and then apply the wheel to the
workpiece.
In general, keep the edge of the wheel at an angle of
about 15° to the workpiece surface.
During the break-in period with a new wheel, do not
work the grinder in forward direction or it may cut into
the workpiece. Once the edge of the wheel has been
rounded off by use, the wheel may be worked in both
forward and backward direction.
Operation with abrasive cut-off /
diamond wheel
Optional accessory
WARNING:
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 breakage and overheating of the
motor may occur.
WARNING:
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.
WARNING:
During cutting operations, never
change the angle of the wheel. Placing side pres-
sure on the cut-off wheel (as in grinding) will cause
the wheel to crack and break, causing serious per-
sonal injury.
WARNING:
A diamond wheel shall be oper-
ated perpendicular to the material being cut.
WARNING:
NEVER use cut-off wheel for side
grinding.
Usage example: operation with abrasive cut-off
wheel

Operation with wire wheel brush
Optional accessory
CAUTION:
Check operation of wire wheel
brush by running tool with no load, insuring that
no one is in front of or in line with the wire wheel
brush.
CAUTION:
Do not use wire wheel brush that
is damaged, or which is out of balance. Use of
damaged wire wheel brush could increase potential
for injury from contact with broken wires.
CAUTION:
ALWAYS use wire wheel brushes
with the wheel guard, assuring diameter of wheel
fits inside the guard. Wheel can shatter during use
and guard helps to reduce chances of personal injury.
NOTICE:
Avoid applying too much pressure
which causes over bending of wires when
using wire wheel brush. It may lead to premature
breakage.
Usage example: operation with wire wheel brush
► Fig.23
Operation with wire cup brush
Optional accessory
CAUTION:
Check operation of wire cup brush
by running tool with no load, insuring that no one
is in front of or in line with brush.
CAUTION:
Do not use brush that is damaged,
or which is out of balance. Use of damaged brush
could increase potential for injury from contact with
broken brush wires.
NOTICE:
Avoid applying too much pressure
which causes over bending of wires when using
the wire cup brush. It may lead to premature
breakage.
Usage example: operation with wire cup brush

MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and unplugged before attempting to
perform inspection or maintenance.
NOTICE:
Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner,
alcohol or the like. Discoloration, deformation or
cracks may result.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY,
repairs, any other maintenance or adjustment should
