2. TO USE THE GRINDER (See Fig. E)
ATTENTION! Do not switch the grinder on whilst
the disc is in contact with the workpiece. Allow
the disc to reach full speed before starting to grind.
Hold your angle grinder with one hand on the main
handle and other hand firmly around the auxiliary
handle.
Always position the guard so that as much of the
exposed disc as possible is pointing away from you.
Be prepared for a stream of sparks when the disc
touches the metal.
For best tool control, material removal and minimum
overloading, maintain an angle between the disc and
work surface of approximately 15
Use caution when working into corners as contact with
the intersecting surface may cause the grinder to jump
or twist.
When grinding is complete allow the workpiece to cool.
Do not touch the hot surface.
