Before plugging in the device, check that the
rated mains voltage and mains frequency, as
specified on the rating label, match your power
supply.
Australia: Always use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply with a rated residual
current of 30 mA or less.
7. Use
7.1 Collet chucks
The tool's shank diameter must correspond
exactly to the collet bore of the collet chuck (1)!
Various collet chucks are available for different
shank diameters. See Accessories section.
7.2 Fitting the tools
Pull the mains plug from the socket.
Only use tools that are suited to the no-load
speed of your machine. See Technical Speci-
fications.
The tool's shank diameter must correspond
exactly to the collet bore of the collet chuck (1)!
In the case of mounted points or mandrels, the
maximum wheel overhang: l
permissible length specified by the manufacturer
must not be exceeded!
The maximum permitted shaft length is the sum of l

Insert the tool (with the full length of the shank) in the
collet chuck (1).
Bring the spindle (3) to a standstill with the 13-mm
spanner provided for this purpose.
Using the 19-mm spanner, tighten the collet chuck
nut (2).
If there is no tool inserted in the collet chuck,
you can tighten the collet chuck manually
rather than with the spanner.
7.3 Removing the tools
Bring the spindle (3) to a standstill with the 13-mm
spanner provided for this purpose.
Using the 19-mm spanner, unscrew the collet chuck
nut (2).
Remove the tool.
7.4 Switching On and Off
Always guide the machine with both hands.
Switch on first, then guide the accessory
towards the workpiece.
Avoid inadvertent starts: always switch the
tool off when the plug is removed from the
mains socket or if there has been a power cut.
In continuous operation, the machine
continues running if it is forced out of your
hands. Therefore always hold the machine with
both hands using the handles provided (4), (6),
maintain a steady position and concentrate on your
work.

Switching on: Push the slide switch (5) forward.
For continuous activation, now tilt downwards until
it engages.
Switching off: Press the rear end of the slide
switch (5) and release.
