• All discs and accessories must be checked before installation. If a disc
is damaged in any way, such as by being chipped, fractured, warped or
misshapen, DO NOT USE AND DISCARD. If you are unsure about whether
a disc is safe to operate, DO NOT USE AND DISCARD
• Always ensure that accessories are suitable to use. Check the expiry date
on the label. Resin-based and other grinding and cutting discs CANNOT
SAFELY BE USED beyond their expiry date
• Do not allow discs to become wet or contaminated with oil. If you suspect
that a disc has degraded in storage, or if you are unsure about whether
its expiry date has passed, DO NOT USE AND DISCARD
• Do not attempt to cut or grind magnesium or any alloy that has high
magnesium content
• Do not attempt to make cuts that exceed the maximum cutting depth
of the disc
• Hold the machine appropriately to ensure that debris produced does not
land on skin or clothing
• Do not operate the spindle lock while the grinder is running
• Discs will continue to rotate for some time after the machine has
been switched off. Allow the moving parts to stop completely without
interference. Do not try to stop the machine by holding an object against
the disc. NEVER place the grinder down until the disc has completely
stopped moving
• A grinding disc will gradually wear down during use, reducing its size. If
a disc becomes too small to work with easily, stop using it and replace
it with a new disc
Additional Safety
Recommendations for the use
of Superabrasives on Handheld
Machines
• Superabrasives are generally inflexible and could shatter, so must
be handled with the utmost care. Damaged or improperly mounted
superabrasives are dangerous and can cause SEVERE injury to the user
and other people in the vicinity
• Types of superabrasive wheels include diamond cutting discs, welded
metal discs, CBN discs etc. Choose your superabrasive tool carefully,
taking into consideration the workpiece material, the machine
dimensions and capabilities. Make sure the machine does not exceed the
maximum operating speed of the superabrasive disc
• NEVER use superabrasive cutting discs for side grinding, as this might
lead to the disc shattering
• Superabrasive wheels have to be carefully inspected and tested before
mounting. Metal wheels should be subjected to a sound test: hold the
wheel on a mandrel or with a finger inserted through the bore, then tap
it with a non-metallic object at several points and listen each time to the
sound produced. An intact wheel will produce a clear 'bell like' metallic
sound. Damaged wheels will give a dull, chattering sound. If in doubt, DO
NOT USE, MARK AS DAMAGED AND DISCARD
• Make sure the machine's mounting flange is compatible with the
superabrasive wheel. Refer to the manufacturer's mounting instructions
• ALWAYS conduct a test run after mounting, with no load for at least 30
seconds, to determine if the wheel runs balanced and does not produce
excessive vibration. If it does, switch off IMMEDIATELY, remove the disc,
inspect, re-mount and re-test if no damage is detected
• If planning on using the superabrasive wheel with a coolant, liquid dust
suppressant or lubricant, first check if the wheel, machine and workpiece
are compatible with wet cutting and with the compound to be used.
Always apply liquid to an already running wheel, never to a non-moving
tool, as the unbalance could lead to the rupture of the wheel. When
switching off, remove the liquid supply first and let the machine run at
no-load, until centrifugal forces have drained all liquid from the wheel.
Dry off the wheel after use, and prevent liquid from being absorbed into
the wheel

Intended Use

Angle grinder, using 115 mm discs, suitable for light to medium duty
grinding and cutting tasks on metal and other suitable materials.

Unpacking your Tool

• Carefully unpack and inspect your tool. Familiarise yourself with all its
features and functions.
• Ensure that all parts of the tool are present and in good condition. If
any parts are missing or damaged, have such parts replaced before
attempting to use this tool.

Before Use

WARNING: Always unplug the grinder from the mains supply before
attempting to fit or replace any attachment. Never fit any attachment with a
maximum speed lower than the no load speed of the machine.
• All discs and accessories must be subjected to a visual inspection prior
to installation, to ensure they are in good condition and within their expiry
date. If in doubt, DO NOT USE AND DISCARD
• Always check all parts and attachments are secure, and that rotating
parts will not foul on guards or machine case
• Always hold the machine, using both hands, by the handles provided
• Be aware that the cast metal gear housing may get hot during use
• Hot air will be emitted from the ventilation holes
• Ensure that the ventilation holes are not obscured in any way
• Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment for the task. Use
of this machine requires ear defenders, eye protection, gloves, breathing
protection, and if appropriate a hard hat
Fitting the auxiliary handle
WARNING: To ensure operator safety, ALWAYS use the auxiliary handle.
Install it at the most appropriate position for the individual task.
1. Screw the Auxiliary Handle (2) clockwise into one of the three
mounting points on the gear housing (see Fig. E). Tighten by hand
Note: The auxiliary handle can be mounted to the left or right side, or on top
of the gear housing.
2. To remove the handle, unscrew anti-clockwise
Changing guards
WARNING: The correct guard MUST be installed for each application before
operation commences. This is a legal requirement.
Note: The guard must be adjusted so that it is situated between the disc
and the operator. Reset the guard if the work angle or the position of the
operator changes. Seek professional guidance if you are unsure how to
operate the guards or any other safety features of the machine correctly.
