shown in Figure F.
Paddle Switch (Fig. A)
CAUTION: Hold the auxiliary handle and 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.

source, depress and release the paddle switch once
without depressing the lock‑on lever to ensure that the
1
into the tool handle, align the
switch is off. Depress and release the paddle switch 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 paddle switch is
locked on, the tool will start unexpectedly when it
is reconnected.
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.
1. To turn the tool on, push the lock‑off lever
the back of the tool, then depress the paddle switch
The tool will run while the switch is depressed.

from rotating when installing or removing wheels. Operate
the spindle lock only when the tool is turned off, the battery
is removed and has come to a complete stop.
NOTICE: To reduce the risk of damage to the tool, do
not engage the spindle lock while the tool is operating.
Damage to the tool will result and attached accessory
may spin off possibly resulting in injury.

and rotate the spindle until you are unable to rotate the
spindle further.
Surface Grinding, Sanding and
Wire Brushing
CAUTION: Always use the correct guard per the
instructions in this manual.
nOTE: If the wheel spins after the clamp nut is tightened,
check the orientation of the threaded clamp nut. If a thin
wheel is installed with the pilot on the clamp nut against the
wheel, it will spin because the height of the pilot prevents
the clamp nut from holding the wheel.
To perform work on the surface of a workpiece:
1. Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the
tool to the work surface.
2. Apply minimum pressure to the work surface, allowing
the tool to operate at high speed. Material removal rate is
greatest when the tool operates at high speed.
