USING CUTTING WHEELS

WARNING: Do not use edge grinding/cutting wheels for surface grinding applications because these wheels are not designed for side pressures encountered with surface grinding. Wheel breakage and injury may result.

1. Allow tool to reach full speed before touching tool to work surface.

2.

Apply minimum pressure to work surface, allowing

FIG. 23

 

 

tool to operate at high speed. Cutting rate is

 

 

 

 

 

greatest when the tool operates at high speed.

 

 

 

 

3.

Once a cut is begun and a notch is established in

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the workpiece, do not change the angle of the cut.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Changing the angle will cause the wheel to bend

 

 

 

 

 

and may cause wheel breakage.

 

 

 

 

4.

Remove the tool from work surface before turning

 

 

 

 

 

tool off. Allow the wheel to stop rotating before

 

 

 

 

 

laying the tool down.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and disconnect tool from power source before making any adjustments or removing/ installing attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

Lubrication

Your power tool requires no additional lubrication.

Cleaning

WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with clean, dry air at least once a week. To minimize the risk of eye injury, always wear AS/NZS1337 approved eye protection when performing this.

WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for cleaning the non-metallic parts of the tool. These chemicals may weaken the plastic materials used in these parts. Use a cloth dampened only with water and mild soap. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.

Repairs

To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and adjustment (including brush inspection and replacement) should be performed by certified service centers or other qualified service organizations, always using identical replacement parts.
