(15˚) (Fig 7). This increases the removal
capacity of the disc and avoids unnecessary
overloading.
OVERLOAD
Overloading will cause damage to the motor of
your angle grinder. This can happen if your
angle grinder is subjected to heavy duty use for
prolonged periods of use. Do not in any cir-
cumstances, attempt to exert too much pres-
sure on your angle grinder to speed up your
work. The abrasive discs operate more effi-
ciently when a light pressure is exerted, thus
avoiding a drop in the speed of your angle
grinder (see Tool care).

TOOL CARE

Keep guards, air vents and the motor housing
as clear as possible of dust and dirt. Wipe with
a clean cloth and blow through with a low-pres-
sure air supply. Excessive build-up of metal
dust can cause tracking of electrical current
from the internal parts to exposed metal parts.
Do not overload your angle grinder.
Overloading causes a reduction in speed and
efficiency, causing your angle grinder to
become too hot. If this happens, operate your
angle grinder under no load for one or two
minutes until it has cooled to normal operating
temperature. Switching your angle grinder off
under load will reduce the life of the switch.
CLEANING
Use only mild soap and a slightly damp cloth to
clean your angle grinder. Many household
cleaners contain chemicals which could seri-
ously damage the plastic. Also, do not use
petrol, turpentine, lacquer or paint thinners or
similar products. Never let any liquid get inside
the tool and never immerse any part of the tool
into liquid.
