BRIEF DESCRIPTION
This angle grinder has been designed for cutting,
deburring and cutting metals and stone without the use of
water.
BEFORE USING THIS TOOL
Before using the tool, make sure the mains voltage
is correct: it must be the same as that on the specification
label. Machines with 230V can also be connected to a
220V mains supply.
FITTING SAFETY DEVICES
WARNING! Always unplug the machine before
carrying out work on it.
1. Fitting the disc guard
Insert the guard flange 3 in the slot in the collar of the
machine plate and turn it to the desired working position.
If the guard does not fit in the collar, loosen the bolt. The
guard can be moved manually to the marked posi-tions.
To remove the guard, perform the same steps in reverse
order.
WARNING! The closed part of the disc guard should
always point towards the user.
2. Fitting the auxiliary handle 7
Use of the auxiliary handle is obligatory in order to
ensure greater control and safety when handling the tool.
The auxiliary handle 7 must be screwed on to the right or
left side, depending on the type of work to be carried out.
3. Adjusting the Rear Handle 12
The rear handle 12 may be turned 90º to the left and
to the right in relation to the motor housing.
This enables the ON/OFF switch to be turned to the
most suitable working position.
To turn the rear handle, follow the instructions below:
Press the rear handle turning button 11 and, at the
-
same time, turn the rear handle 12 to the left or right until it
locks.
-
To return to the initial position, do the same in re-
verse.
FITTING THE ACCESSORIES (DISCS AND WHEELS)
WARNING! For safety reasons, the machine should
always be unplugged from the mains before changing the
disc or wheel. Always work with the guard on and wear
safety goggles.
Use deburring and cutting discs with fibre-reinforced
synthetic binders, for a max. peripheral speed of 80 m/s
and cup wheels with synthetic binder for 45 m/s. Protect
discs and wheels from knocks and blows.
WARNING! Never press the blocking button when
the machine is running. The shaft must have stopped com-
pletely before the blocking button is pressed. To fit the disc,
proceed as follows:
1. Block the spindle (shaft), by pressing the blocking
button 10.
2. With the pin spanner 13, remove the clamping nut 4
from the spindle.
3. Fit the abrasive disc on the support plate 3.
4. Replace the clamping nut 4, using the pin spanner
13. The position of the nut 4 will depend on the thickness of
the disc
5. Once the disc is fitted, check that the blocking
button has returned to its original position due to movement
of the incorporated spring.
STARTING THE TOOL
WARNING! Check that the mains voltage is the same
as that in the machine's specifications.
Plug the machine in with the switch off.
Starting the machine: Press the lever 9 and pull the
switch 8 simultaneously, until the latter starts to operate.
The switch 8 will block for continuous operation.
Stopping the machine: Pull the switch 8.
WORKING INSTRUCTIONS
For cutting or deburring, the part to be worked on must
be secured, unless it is heavy enough to remain in a stable
position by itself.
For optimum performance and results when deburring,
it is advisable that the surface and the disc form an angle
of approximately 30º-40º. Guide the tool by pressing
lightly forwards and backwards. This prevents the part
from overheating or changing colour and the formation of
