Operation - Stanley SGS105 Manual

ENGLISH
(Original instructions)
• Make sure that the abrasive or grinding wheels are
rotating in the direction of the arrows on the accessories
and tool.

OPERATION

WARNING! Always observe the safety instructions and
applicable regulations.
WARNING! To minimize the danger of serious personal injury,
please switch off the tool power and disconnect all plugs
before adjusting or removing/installing any accessory. Before
reassembling the tool, press and release the trigger switch to
make sure the tool is already switched off.
WARNING!
• Make sure all materials to be grinded are secured in
position.
• Apply slight pressure to the tool. Do not apply side
pressure to the abrasive disc.
• Avoid overloading. If the tool becomes hot, let it spin for a
few minutes with no load.
• Be sure to hold the tool tightly with both hands (one hand
on housing, the other on side handle). Start the tool and
bring the grinding wheel on the workpiece.
• Keep the edge of the wheel tilted at angle from 15 to 30
degrees against the surface of the workpiece.
• When using a new grinding wheel, do not operate the
wheel in the B direction, otherwise, it will cut into the
workpiece. When the edge of wheel has been rounded off,
you are free to operate the grinder in either the A or B
direction.
Starting and Stopping (Fig. A)
WARNING! Before using the tool, check whether the handle is
tightened securely. Check whether the ON/OFF switch is
working normally.
Before plugging in the tool to the power supply, check whether
the switch is in the OFF (o) position when pressing the rear
end of the switch.
To start the tool, press the rear end of the switch and slide it
forward. Then press the front end of the switch to lock it.
Press the rear end of the switch to stop the tool.
WARNING! Do not switch the tool on or off while under load
conditions.
Proper Hand Position (Fig. F)
WARNING! To reduce the risk of serious personal injury,
ALWAYS use proper hand position as shown.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of serious personal injury,
ALWAYS hold securely in anticipation of a sudden reaction.
Proper hand position requires one hand on the side handle
(Figure A), with the other hand on the body of the tool, as
shown in Figure F.

Switches
Caution! Hold the body of the tool firmly to maintain control of
the tool at start up and during use and until the wheel or
accessory stops rotating. Make sure the wheel has come to a
complete stop be fore laying the tool down.
Note: To reduce unexpected tool movement, do not switch the
tool on or off while under load conditions. Allow the grinder to
run up to full speed before touching the work surface. Lift the
tool from the surface before turning the tool off. Allow the tool
to stop rotating before putting it down.
Slider switch (Fig. A)
WARNING! Before connecting the tool to a power supply, be
sure the slider switch is in the off position by pressing the rear
part of the switch and releasing. Ensure the slider switch is in
the off position as described above after any interruption in
power supply to the tool, such as the activation of a ground
fault interrupter, throwing of a circuit breaker, accidental
unplugging, or power failure. If the slider switch is locked on
when the power is connected, the tool will start unexpectedly.
To start the tool, slide the slider switch (1) toward the front of
the tool. To stop the tool, release the slider switch. For
continuous operation, slide the switch toward the front of the
tool and press the forward part of the switch inward. To stop
the tool while operating in continuous mode, press the rear
part of the slider switch and release.
Spindle lock (Fig. A)
The spindle lock (2) prevents the output shaft from rotating
when attaching or removing the grinding wheel. Only use the
spindle lock when the tool is switched off, power is unplugged,
and wheel stops completely.
Note: To minimize tool damages, don't use the spindle lock
when the tool is operating.
Otherwise, it may damage the tool. The attached accessories
may come off and cause injury.
If using the spindle lock, press the spindle lock button and
rotate the output shaft until it stops.
Application on Metals
When applying the tool on metals, make sure that a
residual-current device (RCD) is inserted to prevent danger
from metal chips.
If the RCD causes power disconnection, have the tool sent to
an authorized Stanley dealer for repair.
WARNING! Under extreme working conditions, conductive
dust and grit may accumulate on the housing interior when
handling metal workpieces.
This could create an electric shock hazard as it weakens the
protective insulation in the grinder.
