MOTOR
Be sure your power supply agrees with
nameplate marking. 120 Volts AC only
means your tool will operate on standard
60 Hz household power. Do not operate
AC tools on DC. A rating of 120 volts
AC/DC means that your tool will operate
on standard 60 Hz AC or DC power. This
information is printed on the nameplate.
Lower voltage will cause loss of power
and can result in over-heating. All Craftsman
tools are factory-tested; if this tool does
not operate, check the power supply.

OPERATION

AUXILIARY HANDLE (FIG. 1)
A three position auxiliary handle (5) is
furnished with your grinder and can be
screwed into either side of the grinder
housing as well as into the top. This
handle SHOULD BE USED AT ALL
TIMES to maintain complete control of the
tool. Always make sure handle is tight.
STARTING THE TOOL
To switch your angle grinder on, depress
the trigger switch (1). The angle grinder
will stop when the trigger switch is
released. For continuous operation
depress the lock-on button (2) while the
trigger switch is depressed. Release the
trigger switch prior to releasing the lock-on
button. To stop your angle grinder when
operation is continuous depress the
trigger switch again and release.
OVERLOAD
Overloading will cause damage to the
motor of your angle grinder. This can
happen if your angle grinder is subjected
to heavy use for prolonged periods of
time. Do not in any circumstances,
attempt to exert too much pressure on
your angle grinder to speed up your work.
The abrasive discs operate more
efficiently when light pressure is exerted,
thus avoiding a drop in the speed of your
angle grinder.
