Features
E‑Clutch™
This unit is equipped with an E-Clutch™ (Electronic Clutch),
which in the event of a high-load event, the unit will be shut off
to reduce the reaction torque to the user. The switch needs to
be cycled (turned on and off) to restart tool.
Kickback Brake™
When a pinch, stall, or bind-up event is sensed, the electronic
brake engages with maximum force to quickly stop the wheel,
reduce the movement of the grinder, and shut the grinder off.
The switch needs to be cycled (turned on and off) to restart
the tool.
Power‑Off™ Overload Protection
The power supply to the motor will be reduced in case of motor
overload. With continued motor overload, the tool will shut
off. The switch needs to be cycled (turned on and off) to restart
tool. The tool will power off each time the current load reaches
the overload current value (motor burn-up point). If continued
overload shutdowns occur, apply less force/weight on the tool
until the tool will function without the overload engaging.
Electronic Soft Start
This feature limits the initial start-up speed, allowing the tool to
build up to full speed gradually over a 1 second period.
Inserting and Removing the Battery Pack
from the Tool (Fig. B)

Fuel Gauge Battery Packs (Fig. B)
Some D WALT battery packs include a fuel gauge, which
e
consists of three green LED lights that indicate the level of
charge remaining in the battery pack.
To actuate the fuel gauge, press and hold the fuel gauge
button 15 . A combination of the three green LED lights will
illuminate, designating the level of charge left. When the level
of charge in the battery is below the usable limit, the fuel gauge
will not illuminate and the battery will need to be recharged.
nOTE: The fuel gauge is only an indication of the charge left on
the battery pack. It does not indicate tool functionality and is
subject to variation based on product components, temperature
and end-user application.
Attaching the Auxiliary Handle (Fig. C)

WARNING: This handle SHOULD BE USED AT ALL
TIMES to maintain complete control of the tool.
Always make sure the handle is tight.
Screw the auxiliary handle
mounting holes 23 of the gear case.
Rotating the Gear Case (Fig. D)
To improve user comfort, the gear case will rotate 90 ° for
cutting operations.
1. Remove the four corner screws (T25) attaching the gear case
to motor housing.
2. Without separating the gear case from motor housing,
rotate the gear case head to desired position.
nOTE: If the gear case and motor housing become
separated by more than 3 mm, the tool must be
serviced and reassembled by a D
Failure to have the tool serviced may lead to motor and
bearing failure.
3. Reinstall screws to attach the gear case to the motor
housing. Tighten screws to 3.1 Nm torque. Overtightening
could cause screws to strip.
Guards

CAUTION: Guards must be used with all grinding
wheels, cutting wheels, sanding flap discs, wire
brushes, and wire wheels. The tool may be used without
a guard only when sanding with conventional sanding
discs. Refer to Figure A to see guards provided with the unit.
Some applications may require purchasing the correct
guard from your local dealer or authorised service centre.

CAUTION: When using a Type 1/41/Type A (cut-off)
wheel guard for facial grinding, the wheel guard may
interfere with the workpiece causing poor control.

CAUTION: When using a Type 27/Type B (grinding)
wheel guard for cutting-off operations with bonded
abrasive wheels, there is an increased risk of exposure to
