General Information - BLACK&DECKER G950 Manual De Instrucciones

Caution! Wheels used for edge grinding may break
if they bend or twist while being used for cut-off work or
deep grinding. To reduce the risk of serious injury, limit the
use of these wheels to shallow cutting and notching (less
than 1/2" in depth). The open side of the guard must be
positioned away from the operator.
Removing (Fig. F)
f Keep the spindle lock (4) depressed and loosen the
outer flange (14) using the two-pin spanner (15)
(Fig.F).
f Remove the outer flange (14) and the disc (12).
Fitting wire cup brushes & stringer bead/cable
twist brushes
Wire brushes screw directly on the spindle of the machine
without the use of flanges. When using wire brushes,
thread firmly on spindle by hand.
Fitting abrasive discs
Use an abrasive disc with a backing pad for sanding with
your angle grinder.
f Remove the guard.
f Place the flange, (backing pad and abrasive disc sold
separately) and outer flange on the spindle as shown
in Fig. G. Fig. G shows how to attach an abrasive disc
with a rubber backing pad.
f Tighten the abrasive disc as shown in Fig.H,
by depressing the spindle lock button and turning the
abrasive disc by hand.
OPERATION
Warning! Let the tool work at its own pace. Do not
overload.
Switching on and off
f To switch the tool on, press the on/off switch (1).
f For continuous operation, press the lock-on button
and release the on/off switch.
f To switch the tool off, release the on/off switch. To
switch the tool off in continuous operation, press the
on/off switch once more and release it.
Warning! Do not switch the tool off while under load.
Overload
Overloading will cause damage to the motor of your angle
grinder. This can happen if your angle grinder is subjected
to heavy use for prolonged periods of time. Do not in any
circumstances, attempt to exert too much pressure on
your angle grinder to speed up your work. The abrasive
discs operate more efficiently when light pressure is
exerted, thus avoiding a drop in the speed of your angle
grinder.
