• Removing and adjusting the disc guard is done in the reverse
order to its installation.
TOOL REPLACEMENT
• Work gloves must be worn during tool changing operations.
• The spindle lock button (1) is only to be used to lock the spindle
of the grinder when mounting or dismounting the work tool. It
must not be used as a brake button while the disc is spinning.
Doing so may damage the grinder or injure the user.
DISC MOUNTING
• In the case of grinding or cutting discs with a thickness of less
than 3 mm, the nut of the outer flange (6) must be screwed on flat
on the disc side (fig. D).
• Press the spindle lock button (1).
• Insert the special key (supplied) into the holes of the outer flange
(6) (Fig. E).
• Turn the key - loosen and remove the outer flange (6).
• Place the disc so that it is pressed against the surface of the inner
flange (7).
• Screw on the outer flange (6) and lightly tighten with a special
spanner.
• The disassembly of the discs takes place in the reverse order to
assembly. During assembly, the disc should be pressed against
the surface of the inner flange (7) and centrally seated on its
underside.
FITTING WORKING TOOLS WITH THREADED HOLE
• Press the spindle lock button (1).
• Remove the previously mounted implement - if fitted.
• Remove both flanges - inner flange (7) and outer flange (6) -
before installation.
• Screw the threaded part of the working tool onto the spindle and
tighten slightly.
• Disassembly of threaded hole work tools is in reverse order to
assembly.
MOUNTING OF ANGLE GRINDER IN ANGLE GRINDER STAND
It is permissible to use the angle grinder in a dedicated tripod for
angle grinders, provided it is fitted correctly in accordance with the
tripod manufacturer's assembly instructions.
OPERATION / SETTINGS
Check the condition of the grinding wheel before using it. Do not use
chipped, cracked or otherwise damaged grinding wheels. A worn
wheel or brush should be replaced immediately with a new one
before use. When you have finished working, always switch off the
grinder and wait until the working tool has come to a complete
standstill. Only then can the sander be put away. Do not brake the
rotating grinding wheel by pressing it against the workpiece.
• Never overload the grinder. The weight of the power tool exerts
sufficient pressure to operate the tool effectively. Overloading
and excessive pressure can cause the power tool to break
dangerously.
• If the sander falls during operation, it is essential to inspect and,
if necessary, replace the working tool if it is found to be damaged
or deformed.
• Never strike the work tool against the work material.
• Avoid bouncing and scraping with the disc, especially when
working on corners, sharp edges, etc. (this can cause loss of
control and kickback). (this may result in loss of control of the
power tool and a kickback effect).
• Never use saw blades designed for cutting wood from circular
saws. The use of such saw blades often results in a recoil
phenomenon of the power tool, loss of control and can lead to
injury to the operator.
ON/OFF
Hold the sander with both hands during start-up and
operation. The sander is equipped with a safety switch to
prevent accidental start-up.
• Press the safety button (2).
• Press the on/off button (3) (Fig. F).
• Releasing pressure on the switch button (3) stops the grinder.
• After starting the grinder, wait until the grinding wheel has
reached maximum speed before starting work. The switch must
not be operated while the sander is switched on or off. The sander
switch must only be operated when the power tool is away from
the workpiece.
CUTTING
• Cutting with an angle grinder can only be done in a straight line.
• Do not cut the material while holding it in your hand.
• Large workpieces should be supported and care should be taken
that the support points are close to the cut line and at the end of
the material. Material placed stably will not tend to move during
cutting.
• Small workpieces should be clamped e.g. in a vice, using clamps,
etc. The material should be clamped so that the cutting point is
close to the clamping element. This will ensure greater cutting
precision.
• Do not allow vibration or tamping of the cutting disc, as this will
impair the quality of the cut and may cause the cutting disc to
break.
• No lateral pressure should be exerted on the cutting disc during
cutting.
• Use the correct cutting disc depending on the material to be cut.
• When cutting through material, it is recommended that the
direction of feed is in line with the direction of rotation of the
cutting disc.
• The depth of cut depends on the diameter of the disc (Fig. G).
• Only discs with nominal diameters no larger than those
recommended for the grinder model should be used.
• When making deep cuts (e.g. profiles, building blocks, bricks,
etc.), do not allow the clamping flanges to come into contact with
the workpiece.
• Cutting discs reach very high temperatures during operation - do
not touch them with unprotected parts of the body before they
have cooled down.
SANDING
Grinding work can be carried out using e.g. grinding discs, cup
wheels, flap discs, discs with abrasive fleece, wire brushes,
flexible discs for sandpaper, etc. Each type of disc and workpiece
requires a suitable working technique and the use of appropriate
personal protective equipment.
• Discs designed for cutting should not be used for sanding.
• Grinding discs are designed to remove material with the edge of
the disc.
• Do not grind with the side surface of the disc. The optimum
working angle for this type of disc is 30
• Grinding work must only be carried out using grinding discs
suitable for the material.
• When working with flap discs, abrasive fleece discs and flexible
discs for sandpaper, care must be taken to ensure the correct
angle of attack (Fig. I).
• Do not sand with the entire surface of the disc.
• These types of discs are used for machining flat surfaces.
• Wire brushes are mainly intended for cleaning profiles and hard-
to-reach areas. They can be used to remove e.g. rust, paint
coatings, etc. from the material surface. (Fig. K).
• Only work tools whose permissible speed is higher than or equal
to the maximum speed of the angle grinder without load should
be used.
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
Remove the battery from the unit before carrying out any installation,
adjustment, repair or operation.
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
• It is recommended to clean the device immediately after each
use.
• Do not use water or other liquids for cleaning.
• The unit should be cleaned with a dry piece of cloth or blown with
low-pressure compressed air.
