WARNING:
Wheels used for edge
grinding may break if they bend or twist
while being used for deep grinding. To
reduce the risk of serious injury, limit the
use of these wheels to shallow notching
(less than 1/2 in. in depth). The open side
of the guard must be positioned away
from the operator.
REMOVING - FIGURE 6
• Keep the spindle lock (5) depressed and
loosen the outer flange (14) using the
two-pin spanner (15) (fig. 6).
• 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.
• Remove the guard.
• Place the flange, (backing pad and
abrasive disc sold separately) and outer
flange on the spindle as shown in Figure
7. Figure 7A shows how to attach an
abrasive disc with a rubber backing pad.
• Tighten the abrasive disc as shown in
Figure 8 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
• To turn the tool on, press the lock-off
button (1A) and then squeeze the on/off
switch (1).
• For continuous operation, press the
lock-on button (2) and release the on/off
switch.
• 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.
SANDING
PRECAUTIONS TO TAKE WHEN
SANDING PAINT
• Sanding of lead based paint is NOT
RECOMMENDED due to the difficulty of
controlling the contaminated dust. The
greatest danger of lead poisoning is to
children and pregnant women.
• Since it is difficult to identify whether
or not a paint contains lead without a
chemical analysis, we recommend the
following precautions when sanding any
paint:
PERSONAL SAFETY
• No children or pregnant women should
enter the work area where the paint sanding
is being done until all cleanup is completed.
• A dust mask or respirator should be worn
by all persons entering the work area. The
filter should be replaced daily or whenever
the wearer has difficulty breathing.
NOTE: Only those dustmasks suitable
for working with lead paint dust and
fumes should be used. Ordinary painting
masks do not offer this protection. See
your local hardware dealer for the NIOSH
approved proper mask.
ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY
• Paint should be removed in such a
manner as to minimize the amount of
dust generated.
• Areas where paint removal is occurring
should be sealed with plastic sheeting of
4 mils thickness.
• Sanding should be done in a manner to
reduce tracking of paint dust outside the
work area.
