ENGLISH

Spindle Lock (fig. 1)

The spindle lock (b) is provided to prevent the spindle from rotating when installing or removing wheels. Operate the spindle lock only when the tool is turned off, unplugged from the power supply, and has come to a complete stop.

NOTICE: To reduce the risk of damage to the tool, do not engage the spindle lock while the tool is operating. Damage to the tool will result and attached accessory may spin off possibly resulting in injury.

To engage the lock, depress the spindle lock button and rotate the spindle until you are unable to rotate the spindle further.

Metal Applications

When using the tool in metal applications, make sure that a residual current device (RCD) has been inserted to avoid residual risks caused by metal swarf.

If the power supply is shut off by the RCD, take the tool to an authorised DEWALT repair agent.

WARNING: In extreme working conditions, conductive dust can accumulate inside the machine housing when working with metal. This can result in the protective insulation in the machine becoming degraded with a potential risk of an electrical shock.

To avoid build-up of metal swarf inside the machine, we recommend to clear the ventilation slots on a daily basis. Refer to Maintenance.

Using Flap Discs

WARNING: Metal dust build-up. Extensive use of flap discs in metal applications can result in the increased potential for electric shock. To reduce this risk, insert an RCD before use and clean the ventilation slots daily by blowing dry compressed air into the ventilation slots inaccordance with the below maintenance instructions.

Your DEWALT power tool has been designed to operate over a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning.

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. Bewfore reconnecting the tool, depress and release the trigger switch to ensure that the tool is off.

Pop-off Brushes

The motor will be automatically shut off indicating that the carbon brushes are nearly worn out and that the tool needs servicing. The carbon brushes are not user-serviceable. Take the tool to an authorised DEWALT repair agent.

Lubrication
