ATTACHING WIRE BRUSHES

Wire cup brushes, not included, can be screwed directly on the spindle. No flanges are necessary.

EDGE GRINDING

WARNING Do not use edge grinding wheels for cut-off work, deep grinding or subject them to any side pressure as this may lead to breakage and possible personal injury. These wheels should be used for shallow cutting and notching (less than 1/2" in depth). Keep the open side of the guard away from the operator at all times.

Edge grinding should only be done with wheels specifically designed for this purpose.

REMOVING GUARD FOR SANDING OR USING FLAT WIRE BRUSHES

Set the Angle Grinder on a flat surface with the spindle facing up.

Remove the inner and outer flanges, unscrew spring washer and remove the guard.

Store these parts carefully.

Replace the guard after the job is finished.

ATTACHING SANDING DISC

OPERATING THE ANGLE GRINDER

Always unplug the tool before attempting to change the guard or accessories.

For best tool control, material removal and minimal loading, keep the angle between the disc and the work surface at approximate- ly 30° when grinding and 10°-15° when sanding.

OPERATING THE ON/OFF SWITCH

Never switch the Angle Grinder “ON” or “OFF” while under load conditions.

Always allow the Angle Grinder to come up to full speed before touching any surface.

Always take the tool away from the workpiece before turning the tool “OFF”. Let the tool come to a complete stop before setting it down.

This tool operates best under light pressure. Exerting heavy pressure will not speed up the work and may cause damage to the motor.

To remove the guard, see instructions given in the “Removing Guard for Sanding or Using Flat Wire Brushes” Section above.

Set the inner flange and outer flange on the spindle.

Push in the spindle lock button. Turn the spindle until it locks into place.

Once the spindle is locked, tighten the sanding disc by hand.

Press the “ON/OFF” switch to start the tool. To stop, release the “ON/OFF” switch. When continuous operation

is desired, press the “ON/OFF” switch forward

and depress the lock-on but- ton. This locks the switch “ON” until the lock-on but-

ton is released.
