5. Remove the tool from the work surface before turning OFF
6. Allow the tool to stop rotating before putting it down
Cutting
Note: This machine is not designed for wet cutting.
WARNING: Always ensure the correct Cutting Guard (12) is installed
when using cutting discs or superabrasive wheels.
WARNING: Only use discs specifically manufactured for cutting
operations. Stone and metal cutting discs are not interchangeable. Use the
correct disc for the application.
WARNING: Never use cutting discs for grinding operations. The disc
might shatter and produce projectiles that could injure the operator and/or
bystanders.
1. Position yourself so that the exposed underside of the
cutting wheel is facing away from you
2. Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool
to the work surface
3. Apply light pressure to the work surface
Note: Excessive pressure does not result in more effective
or faster cutting, but will cause premature wear of the
cutting disc and increase wear and tear on the tool
4. Once a notch is established, keep the angle of the disc
constant
5. Allow the tool to stop rotating before putting it down
WARNING: If the wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut for any
reason, switch off the tool and hold the tool motionless until the wheel
comes to a complete stop. Then remove the tool.
WARNING: Do not apply any sideways force to cutting discs, as this
might lead to the disc becoming jammed in the cut and shattering.
IMPORTANT: The cutting disc will wear during use, and the disc diameter
will gradually reduce in size. The smaller the disc becomes, the more strain
will be placed on the motor. Avoid damage to the tool by only using cutting
discs that fall within approximately 25% of the original size.
Using a cup brush or wire wheel
• Always check the no-load speed of the grinder does not
exceed the maximum speed of the cup brush or wire wheel
• Ensure no part of the cup brush or wire wheel can come
into contact with the tool housing
• Run the grinder, with cup brush or wire wheel attached, for
at least 30 seconds before use to check that the cup brush
or wire wheel is secure and properly balanced
IMPORTANT: When using a wire cup brush or wire wheel, avoid applying
excess pressure. Using greater force will not make the cup brush or wire
wheel more effective, but will bend the wires out of shape and damage the
brush.
WARNING: Remove the Battery (8) and Blade when the tool is to be
left unattended.
