ON/OFF SWITCH
To turn the switch ON, Press the rear of switch button (3), push
the ON/OFF switch (1) forward while pressing the front part
of the switch (2) into the body of the angle grinder. When the
switch "snaps" into position, it will remain ON and the motor will
continue running. To turn the switch OFF, press the rear part of
the switch (3) into the angle grinder body. The switch will "snap"
to the OFF position.
GRINDING
Always select and use grinding discs that are recommended for the material to be
ground. Make sure that the minimum operating speed of the grinding disc selected
is not less than 11,000 RPM. Secure all work before beginning the grinding operation.
Secure small workpieces in a vice or clamp to a workbench.
WARNING: Never use your grinder with the guard removed. It has been designed
for use only with the guard installed. Attempting to use the grinder with the guard
removed will result in loose particles being thrown against the operator resulting in
serious personal injury.
WARNING: Never use your grinder without eye protection. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
The efficient operation of the angle grinder begins by
controlling the pressure and surface contact between the
grinding disc and the workpiece. Flat surfaces are ground
at an acute angle, normally between 5° and 15°.
For maximum control, hold the grinder in front and
away from you with both hands, keeping the grinding
disc clear of the workpiece. Start your grinder and let
the motor and grinding disc build up to full speed. Gradually lower
the grinder until the grinding disc contacts the workpiece.
