Description (fig. A)
Your angle grinder D28415 has been designed for
professional grinding and cutting applications.
1 On/off switch
2 Unlocking switch
3 Spindle lock
4 Guard
5 Side handle
Soft start feature
The soft start feature allows a slow speed build-up
to avoid an initial jerk when starting. This feature is
particularly useful when working in confined spaces.
Auto balancer
The auto balancer continuously adjusts the balance
to reduce the vibration of the machine when it is
running. This improves user comfort during the
operation and is particularly useful when using the
machine for long periods of time
Electrical safety
The electric motor has been designed for one
voltage only. Always check that the power supply
corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.
Your tool is double insulated in accordance
with EN 50144; therefore no earth wire is
required.
