Troubleshooting - Metabo WEVF 10-125 Quick Inox Operating Instructions Manual

Note: We recommend using our angle polisher for
polishing work.
7.2 Switching On and Off
Always guide the machine with both hands.
Switch on first, then guide the accessory
towards the workpiece.
The machine must not be allowed to draw in
additional dust and shavings. When switching
the machine on and off, keep it away from dust
deposits. After switching off the machine, only place
it down when the motor has come to a standstill.
Avoid inadvertent starts: always switch the
tool off when the plug is removed from the
mains socket or if there has been a power cut.
In continuous operation, the machine
continues running if it is forced out of your
hands. Therefore, always hold the machine with
both hands using the handles provided, stand
securely and concentrate.
Machines with slide switch:

workpiece does not become too hot.
Rough grinding: position the machine at an angle of
30° - 40° for the best working results.
Cut-off grinding:
Always work against the run of the disc
(see illustration). Otherwise there is
the danger of the machine kicking
back from the cut out of control. Guide
the machine evenly at a speed
suitable for the material being processed. Do not tilt,
apply excessive force or sway from side to side.
Wire brushing:
Press down the machine evenly.
7.4 Rotate gear housing
See illustration D on page 3.
- Disconnect the mains plug.
- Remove guard (6).
- Unscrew the 4 gear housing screws (a).
CAUTION! Do not remove the gear housing!
- Turn the gear housing to the desired position
without removing it.
- Screw in the 4 gear housing screws (a) in the
available threads! Tightening torque = 3,0 Nm +/-
0,3 Nm.
8. Cleaning
It is possible that particles deposit inside the power
tool during operation. This impairs the cooling of the
power tool. Conductive build-up can impair the
protective insulation of the power tool and cause
electrical hazards.
The power tool should be cleaned regularly, often
and thoroughly through all front and rear air vents
using a vacuum cleaner or by blowing in dry air.
Prior to this operation, separate the power tool from
the power source and wear protective glasses and
dust mask.
Regularly clean dust filter: remove and blow out
with compressed air.

9. Troubleshooting

- Electronic safety shutdown The electronic
signal display (10) flashes and the machine
was automatically SWITCHED OFF. If the slew
rate of the current is too high (for example, if the
machine suddenly seizes or kickback occurs), the
machine switches off. Switch machine off with
switch. Switch it on again and continue to work as
normal. Try to prevent the machine from seizing.
See chapter 3.2.
Machines with VTC and TC electronics:
The electronic signal display (10) lights
up and the load speed decreases. There is
too much load on the machine! Run the
machine in idling until the electronics signal
indicator switches off.
Machines with VTC, TC and VC electronics:
