ANGLE GRINDER SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Check that the speed marked on the grinding wheel is equal to or
greater than the rated speed of the tool.
Ensure that the dimensions of the grinding wheel are compatible

Ensure that the grinding wheel is correctly mounted and tightened
before use and run the tool at no-load speed for 30 seconds in a
safe position. Stop immediately if there is considerable vibration or if
other defects are detected. If this condition occurs, check the tool to
determine the cause.
Do not use separate reducing bushings or adapters to adapt large
hole grinding wheels.
Check that the work piece is properly supported.
Use only grinding wheels approved by RYOBI
Ensure that sparks resulting from use do not create a hazard e.g. do
not hit people, or ignite flammable substances.

N
EVER COVER THE AIR VENTS SINCE THEY MUST ALWAYS BE
OPEN FOR PROPER MOTOR COOLING.
The key to efficient operating is controlling the pressure and surface contact
between the disc and work piece. Flat surfaces are ground at an acute
angle, usually 10 to 20 degrees with the work piece. Allow the disc to reach
full speed before starting to grind. Too great an angle causes concentration
of pressure on a small area which may gouge or burn work surface.
After use, check the tool to make sure that it is in good condition.
It is recommended that you take this tool to a Ryobi Authorized Service
Centre for a through cleaning and lubrication at least once a year.
DO NOT MAKE ANY ADJUSTMENTS WHILE THE MOTOR IS IN
MOTION.
ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD FROM THE SOCKET
BEFORE CHANGING REMOVABLE OR EXPENDABLE PARTS
