ENGLISH
Place the spring washer (8) over the spindle and locate it
on the shoulder (10).
Place the guard onto the tool as shown.
Place the flange (11) over the spindle with the protruding
pips towards the guard. Make sure that the holes in the
flange align with the screw holes.
Secure the flange with the screws (6). Make sure that the
screws are fully tight and that the guard can be rotated.
Fitting the side handle (fig. A)
Warning! Always use the side handle.
Screw the side handle (2) into one of the mounting holes
in the tool.
Fitting and removing grinding or cutting discs
(fig. A, D - G)
Warning! Always use the correct type of disc for your
application. Always use discs with the correct diameter and
bore size (see technical data). The maximum thickness for
grinding discs is 6 mm, for cutting discs 3.5 mm.
Fitting
If it has been removed, fit the guard as described above.
Place the inner flange (12) onto the spindle (9) as shown
(fig. D). Make sure that the flange is correctly located on
the flat sides of the spindle.
Place the disc (5) onto the spindle (9) as shown (fig. E).
If the disc has a raised centre (13), make sure that the
raised centre faces the inner flange.
Make sure that the disc locates correctly on the inner flange.
Place the outer flange (14) onto the spindle. When fitting
a grinding disc, the raised centre on the outer flange must
face towards the disc (A in fig. F). When fitting a cutting
disc, the raised centre on the outer flange must face away
from the disc (B in fig. F).
Keep the spindle lock (3) depressed and tighten the outer
flange using the two-pin spanner (15) (fig. A & G). Make
sure that the outer flange is fitted correctly for the type of
disc used and that the disc is clamped tightly.
Removing
Keep the spindle lock (3) depressed and loosen the outer
flange (14) using the two-pin spanner (15) (fig. A & G).
Remove the outer flange (14) and the disc (5).
Fitting and removing sanding discs (fig. A, H & I)
For sanding, a backing pad is required. The backing pad is
available from your Black & Decker dealer as an accessory.
Fitting
Remove the guard as described above.
Place the inner flange (12) onto the spindle (9) as shown
(fig. H). Make sure that the flange is correctly located on
the flat sides of the spindle.
Place the backing pad (16) onto the spindle.
Place the sanding disc (17) onto the backing pad.
Place the outer flange (14) onto the spindle with the raised
centre facing away from the disc.
Keep the spindle lock (3) depressed and tighten the outer
flange using the two-pin spanner (15) (fig. A & I). Make
sure that the outer flange is fitted correctly and that the
disc is clamped tightly.
Removing
Keep the spindle lock (3) depressed and loosen the outer
flange (14) using the two-pin spanner (15) (fig. A & I).
Remove the outer flange (14), the sanding disc (17) and
the backing pad (16).
Warning! After sanding, refit the guard on the tool.
USE
Warning! Let the tool work at its own pace. Do not overload.
Carefully guide the cable in order to avoid accidentally
cutting it.
Be prepared for a stream of sparks when the grinding or
cutting disc touches the workpiece.
Always position the tool in such a way that the guard
provides optimum protection from the grinding or cutting disc.
Switching on and off (fig. J)
To switch on, slide the on/off switch (1) forward. Note that
the tool will continue running when you release the switch.
To switch off, press the rear part of the ON/OFF switch.
Hints for optimum use
Firmly hold the tool with one hand around the side handle
and the other hand around the motor housing (fig. K).
When grinding, always maintain an angle of approx. 15°
between the disc and the workpiece surface (fig. L).
MAINTENANCE
Your tool has been designed to operate over a long period of
time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory
operation depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning.
Warning! Before performing any maintenance, switch off
and unplug the tool.
Regularly clean the ventilation slots in your tool using a
