6. TO USE THE gRINDER (See Fig. E)
ATTENTION: Do not switch the grinder
on whilst the disc is in contact with the
workpiece. Allow the disc to reach full speed
before starting to grind.
Hold your angle grinder with one hand on the
main handle and other hand firmly around the
auxiliary handle.
Always position the guard so that as much of the
exposed disc as possible is pointing away from you.
Be prepared for a stream of sparks when the disc
touches the metal.
For best tool control, material removal and minimum
overloading, maintain an angle between the disc
and work surface of approximately 15
grinding.
Use caution when working into corners as contact
with the intersecting surface may cause the grinder
to jump or twist.
When grinding is complete allow the workpiece to
cool. Do not touch the hot surface.
7. CUTTINg
WARNINg! For cutting metal,always
work with the wheel guard for cutting.
When cutting, do not press, tilt or oscillate the
machine. Work with moderate feed, adapted
to the material being cut.
Do not reduce the speed of running down
cutting discs by applying sideward pressure.
The direction in which the cutting is performed
is important.
The machine must always work in an up-
grinding motion. Therefore, never move the
machine in the other direction! Otherwise, the
danger exists of it being pushed uncontrolled
out of the cut.
WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR
ANGLE GRINDER
1. Always start at no load to achieve
maximum speed then start working.
2. Do not force the disc to work faster,
reducing the Disc's moving speed means
longer working time.
3. Always work with a 15-30 angle between
disc and workpiece. Larger angles will
cut ridges into the workpiece and affect
Angle grinder
the surface finish. Move the angle grinder
across and back and forth over the
workpiece.
4. When using a cutting disc never change the
cutting angle otherwise you will stall the
disc and angle grinder motor or break the
disc. When cutting, only cut in the opposite
direction to the disc rotation. If you cut in
the same direction as the disc rotation the
disc may push itself out of the cut slot.
5. When cutting very hard material best
results can be achieved with a diamond
disc.
6. When using a diamond disc it will become
very hot. If this happens you will see a full

ring of sparks around the rotating disc.
Stop cutting and allow to cool at no load
speed for 2-3 minutes.
7. Always ensure the workpiece is firmly held
or clamped to prevent movement.
MAINTENANCE
Remove the plug from the socket before
carrying out any adjustment, servicing or
maintenance.
There are no user serviceable parts in your
power tool. Never use water or chemical
cleaners to clean your power tool. Wipe clean
with a dry cloth. Always store your power tool
in a dry place. Keep the motor ventilation slots
clean. Keep all working controls free of dust.
Occasionally you may see sparks through the
ventilation slots. This is normal and will not
damage your power tool.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent
or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid
a hazard.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Although your new angle grinder is really
very simple to operate, if you do experience
problems, please check the following:
1. If your grinder will not operate check the
power at the main plug.
2. If your grinder wheel wobbles or vibrates,
check that outer flange is tight; check that
