Adjusting the guard

Note: Inspect the guard before every use, and replace if damaged.
WARNING: This tool must NEVER be operated without the guard in place and correctly positioned.
• Depending in the application and work angle, the position of the guard must be adjusted, to
always be located between the disc and the user:
Use the Hex Key (6) to loosen the guard clamping screw

Adjust guard position and re-tighten screw

WARNING: DO NOT overtighten. Overtightening may damage the guard.
OPERATION
Rotating cut-off tool, powered by compressed air from a compressor, for cutting of metal (mainly thin sheet metal,
nuts/bolts, car bodywork etc.).
WARNING: DO NOT switch the machine on/off when the disc is in contact with the workpiece. Always allow the
motor to reach its full speed before applying load, and to stop completely before placing the grinder down. Always
hold the machine securely, using both hands, on the handles provided.
Note: Do not apply too much pressure to the machine whilst grinding. Excessive pressure does not result in more
effective removal of material, but will cause premature wear of the grinding disc and increase wear and tear on the
machine.
WARNING: This is a cutting device only. DO NOT attempt to use it for sideways grinding, as axial force will cause the
cutting disc to shatter.
