Operation
Starting Operation
Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage
of the power source must agree with the
voltage specified on the type plate of the
power tool.
When operating the machine with power from
mobile generators that do not have sufficient re-
serve capacity or are not equipped with suitable
voltage control with starting current amplifica-
tion, loss of performance or untypical behavior
can occur upon switching on.
Please observe the suitability of the power gen-
erator being used, particularly with regard to the
mains voltage and frequency.
Switching On and Off
To start the power tool, push the On/Off switch
4 forwards.
To lock the On/Off switch 4, press the On/Off
switch 4 down at the front until it engages.
To switch off the power tool, release the On/Off
switch 4 or, if it is locked, briefly push down the
back of the On/Off switch 4 and then release it.
Check grinding tools before using. The grind-
ing tool must be mounted properly and be
able to move freely. Carry out a test run for
at least one minute with no load. Do not use
damaged, out-of-center or vibrating grinding
tools. Damaged grinding tools can burst and
cause injuries.
Kickback stop

GWS 14-125 CIT/GWS 14-150 CI)
In case of a sudden drop in speed,
e. g., caused by a jammed disc
while cutting, the power supply to
the motor is electronically inter-
rupted.
To restart the operation, switch the On/Off
switch 4 to the Off position and start the ma-
chine again.

Restarting protection
(GWS 11-125 CI/GWS 11-125 CIE/
GWS 14-125 CI/GWS 14-125 CIE/
GWS 14-125 CIT/GWS 14-150 CI)
The restarting protection feature prevents un-
controlled restarting of the machine after an in-
terruption in the power supply.
To restart the operation, switch the On/Off
switch 4 to the Off position and start the ma-
chine again.
Reduced starting current
(GWS 11-125 CI/GWS 11-125 CIE/
GWS 14-125 CI/GWS 14-125 CIE/
GWS 14-125 CIT/GWS 14-150 CI)
The electronic reduced starting current limits the
power consumption when switching the tool on
and enables operation from a 16 ampere fuse.
Constant Electronic Control
(GWS 11-125 CI/GWS 11-125 CIE/
GWS 14-125 CI/GWS 14-125 CIE/
GWS 14-125 CIT/GWS 14-150 CI)
Constant electronic control holds the speed con-
stant at no-load and under load, and ensures uni-
form working performance.
