Working instructions
Grinding:
Press down the machine evenly on the surface and
move back and forth so that the surface of the
workpiece does not become too hot.
Roughing: position the machine at an angle of
30° - 40° for the best working results.
Separating:
Always work against the run of the
disc (see illustration). Otherwise
there is the danger of the machine
kicking back from the cut out of
control. Guide the machine evenly at
a speed suitable for the material being processed.
Do not tilt, apply excessive force or sway from side
to side.
Sanding:
Press down the machine evenly on the surface and
move back and forth so that the surface of the
workpiece does not become too hot.
Wire brushing:
Press down the machine evenly.
9 Cleaning
Motor cleaning: blow compressed air through the
rear ventilation slots of the machine regularly,
frequently and thoroughly. Here, the machine must
be held firmly.
