very hot and could cause personal | ||
| ||
injury or a fire. |

WARNING. The disc continues to turn for a few seconds even though the switch is turned off. Keep your hands well away from the moving disc.
Led overload protection system
Overloading the tool means the tool is being leaned on excessively during use, slowing down the speed of the tool. As a result of the motor slowing down, the internal fan does not work to its full capacity.
1.The LED Overload protection system will alert you when it is overloading.
2.The grinder will warn you when you are approaching overload by flashing the Yellow light
3.If you continue to ignore the yellow light or do not see it, the red light will come on and the grinder will immediately come to a stop.
4.When this occurs, wait a brief moment then restart the grinder, however, take additional care not to press on the tool too much.
Variable speed
The variable speed feature of this grinder enhances the grinding performance and saves the disc from undue wear.
1.The variable speed dial (13) is used to program the speed of the disc. The speed should be adapted to the material being grinded.
2.Use your finger or thumb to turn the dial forwards to increase the speed and backwards to decrease it.
3.Position “1” denotes the lowest speed. Position “6” denotes the highest speed.
NOTE. Using the correct speed for the job increases the life of the disc.
Variable speed with soft start
This grinder is fitted with soft start technology. This feature operates when you start the tool by slowly increasing the power to the selected speed. The soft start feature eliminates any “kick” when the grinder is switched on. In conventional grinders without soft start the switch is heated up instantly thus reducing the life expectancy. The soft start feature ensures a longer life for the tool.
Replacing a disc
CAUTION. Switch off the grinder and disconnect it from the power point.
1.Turn the angle grinder on to its back and press the spindle lock button (3) and rotate the spindle until it locks.
2.Insert the pins of the wrench (9) into the holes in the outer flange (10) and remove it and the old disc.
NOTE. Do not remove the inner flange (12).
