Specified Conditions Of Use; Mains Connection - Milwaukee AG 22-180 Manual Original

c) Wheels must be used only for recommended applications.
For example: do not grind with the side of cut-o wheel.
Abrasive cut-o wheels are intended for peripheral grinding, side
forces applied to these wheels may cause them to shatter.
d) Always use undamaged wheel anges that are of correct
size and shape for your selected wheel. Proper wheel anges
support the wheel thus reducing the possibility of wheel breakage.
Flanges for cut-o wheels may be di erent from grinding wheel
anges.
e) Do not use worn down wheels from larger power tools.
Wheel intended for larger power tool is not suitable for the higher
speed of a smaller tool and may burst.
Additional Safety Warnings Speci c for Abrasive Cutting-
O Operations:
a) Do not "jam" the cut-o wheel or apply excessive pressure.
Do not attempt to make an excessive depth of cut. Overstres-
sing the wheel increases the loading and susceptibility to twisting
or binding of the wheel in the cut and the possibility of kickback or
wheel breakage.
b) Do not position your body in line with and behind the
rotating wheel. When the wheel, at the point of operation,
is moving away from your body, the possible kickback may
propel the spinning wheel and the power tool directly at you.
c) When wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut for any
reason, switch o the power tool and hold the power tool
motionless until the wheel comes to a complete stop. Never
attempt to remove the cut-o wheel from the cut while the
wheel is in motion otherwise kickback may occur. Investigate
and take corrective action to eliminate the cause of wheel binding.
d) Do not restart the cutting operation in the workpiece. Let
the wheel reach full speed and carefully re-enter the cut. The
wheel may bind, wall up or kick back if the power tool is restarted in
the workpiece.
e) Support panels or any oversized workpiece to minimize
the risk of wheel pinching and kickback. Large workpieces tend
to sag under their own weight. Supports must be placed under the
workpiece near the line of cut and near the edge of the workpiece on
both sides of the wheel.
f) Use extra caution when making a "pocket cut" into existing
walls or other blind areas. The protruding wheel may cut gas or
water pipes, electrical wiring or objects that can cause kickback.
Safety Warnings Speci c for Sanding Operations:
a) Do not use excessively oversized sanding disc paper.
Follow manufacturers recommendations, when selecting
sanding paper. Larger sanding paper extending beyond the
sanding pad presents a laceration hazard and may cause snagging,
tearing of the disc or kickback.
Safety Warnings Speci c for Wire Brushing Operations:
a) Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the brush even
during ordinary operation. Do not overstress the wires by
applying excessive load to the brush. The wire bristles can
easily penetrate light clothing and/or skin.
b) If the use of a guard is recommended for wire brushing,
do not allow any interference of the wire wheel or brush
with the guard. Wire wheel or brush may expand in diameter due
to work load and centrifugal forces.
Appliances used at many di erent locations including open air
should be connected via a residual current device (FI, RCD, PRCD) of
30mA or less.
Sawdust and splinters must not be removed while the machine is
running.
Only plug-in when machine is switched o .
Never reach into the danger area of the machine when it is running.
Always use the auxiliary handle.
Always use the protecting cap when roughing-down and separat-
ing.
Immediately switch o the machine in case of considerable vibra-
tions or if other malfunctions occur. Check the machine in order to
nd out the cause.
Always use and store the grinding disks according to the manufac-
turer's instructions.
When grinding metal, ying sparks are produced. Take care that
no persons are endangered. Because of the danger of re, no
combustible materials should be located in the vicinity (spark ight
zone). Do not use dust extraction.
Due care should be taken that no sparks or sanding dust ying from
the workpiece come into contact with you.
When separating stone the guide shoe must be used!
The adjusting nut must be tightened before starting to work with
the machine.
The workpiece must be xed if it is not heavy enough to be steady.
Never lead the workpiece to the grinding disk with your hand.
Under extreme conditions (e.g. smooth-grinding metals with the
arbour and vulcanized bre grinding wheel), signi cant contamina-
tion can build up on the inside of the angle grinder. For safety reasons,
in such conditions the inside should be cleaned thoroughly of metal
deposits and a motor circuit-breaker must be connected in series. If the
motor circuit-breaker trips the machine must be sent for repair.
For accessories intended to be tted with threaded hole wheel,
ensure that the thread in the wheel is long enough to accept the
spindle length.
Use the safety guard from the accessories range when performing
out cutting work.

SPECIFIED CONDITIONS OF USE

The angle grinder may be used for cutting, grinding, sanding and
wire brushing a wide range of materials, such as metal or stone. If
you have any doubts, please refer to the instructions supplied by
the accessory manufacturer.
Do not use this product in any other way as stated for normal use.

MAINS CONNECTION

Connect only to single-phase AC current and only to the
system voltage indicated on the rating plate. It is also possible
to connect to sockets without an earthing contact as the design
conforms to safety class II.
AG 22-180, AG 22-230: Inrush currents cause short-time voltage
drops. Under unfavourable power supply conditions, other
equipment may be a ected. If the system impedance of the power
supply is lower than 0,2 Ohm, disturbances are unlikely to occur.
RESTART CUTOUT
AGV 22-180 E, AG 22-230 E, AGV 22-230 E:
Machines with a lockable switch are supplied with a restart cutout.
This prevents the machine restarting by itself after a power failure.
When resuming work, switch the machine o and then switch it
back on again.
