Sound emission values determined according to EN 60745-2-3. Typically the A-weighted sound pressure level of the product is 80.7 dB(A). Uncertainty K=3 dB. The noise level when working can exceed 80 dB(A). Wear hearing protection! Vibration total values ah (triax vector sum) and uncertainty K determined according to EN 60745-2-3: ah=9.079m/s

The vibration level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. The declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or insertion tools or is poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This may signicantly increase the exposure level over the total working period. An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may signicantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns.

WARNING Thoroughly inspect a new grinding wheel before you install it on the grinder. ■ Tap lightly around the wheel using a wooden hammer. ■ Listen carefully to the resulting sounds. Places with fissures or cracks will result in a different sound. Do not use a wheel containing ssures or cracks. When you install a new grinding wheel, carry out a no load revolution test of approximately one minute with the grinding wheel facing a safe direction, i.e., away from people or objects. ■ Depress the spindle lock button and rotate the clamp nut until the spindle locks. NOTE: To prevent damage to the spindle or spindle lock, always allow motor to come to a complete stop before engaging spindle lock. ■ Loosen (fig.B.3) and remove the clamp nut from the spindle. Do not remove the disc flange. ■ Make sure the flats on the bottom of the disc flange are engaged with the flats on the spindle. ■ Place the grinding wheel over the spindle. WARNING Always install a grinding wheel with the depressed center against the disc ange. Failure to do so will cause the grinding wheel to crack when tightening the clamp nut. This could result in serious personal injury because of loose particles breaking off and being thrown from the grinder. Do not overtighten. ■ Thread the clamp nut on the spindle with the flat side of the nut facing up. ■ Fit the raised, small diameter portion of the clamp nut into the hole in the wheel and finger tighten. ■ Depress the spindle lock button and rotate the wheel clockwise (fig.B.2) until the spindle locks in position. ■ Tighten the clamp nut securely with the wrench 14 provided.

Applications You may use this product for the purpose listed below: ■ Grinding metals ■ Sanding wood or metal surfaces WARNING Battery products are always in operating condition. Therefore, the switch should always be locked when not in use or carrying at your side. Starting And Stopping The Angle Grinder (see gure D - E) ■ To start the power tool, push the On/Off switch forwards. ■ To lock the On/Off switch, press the On/Off switch down at the front until it latches. ■ To switch off the power tool, release the On/Off switch or, if it is locked, briefly push down the back of the On/Off switch and then release it. ■ To save energy, only switch the power tool on when using it. ■ Check grinding tools before using. The grinding tool must be mounted properly and be able to move freely. Carry out a test run for at least one minute with no load. Do not use damaged, out- of-centre or vibrating grinding tools. Damaged grinding tools can burst and cause injuries. Positioning The Guard (see gure F - I) ■ The guard on the grinder should be correctly positioned depending on which side the handle is mounted. Never use the grinder without the guard correctly in place. WARNING Never place the guard so that it is in front of the grinder. This could result in serious injury because sparks and loose particles thrown from the grinding wheel would be directed toward the operator. Always place the guard in the correct location as shown. To reposition the guard: ■ Remove the battery pack. ■ Unlock the guard clasp by pulling the clasp out, away from the grinder. ■ Rotate the guard to its correct position as shown. ■ Lock the guard clasp by pushing the clasp in. NOTE : Be sure the raised ridge on the guard is seated in the groove on the bearing cap. Never use the grinder without the guard in place and properly adjusted. Operating The Grinder (see gure J) Always carefully select and use grinding wheels that are recommended for the material to be ground. Make sure that the minimum operating speed of any accessory wheel selected is 6,500 r/min. or more. The grinding wheel provided with the grinder is suitable for grinding welds, preparing surfaces to be welded, grinding structural steel, and grinding stainless steel. To operate the grinder: ■ Secure all work in a vise or clamp to a workbench. DANGER Never use the grinder with the guard removed. It has been designed for use only with the guard installed. Attempting to use grinder with guard removed will result in loose particles being thrown against the operator resulting in serious personal injury. ■ Hold the grinder in front and away from you with both hands, keeping the grinding wheel clear of the workpiece. ■ Turn on the grinder and let the motor and grinding wheel build up to full speed. ■ Lower the grinder gradually until the grinding wheel contacts the workpiece. WARNING To prevent loss of control and possible serious personal injury, always operate the grinder with both hands, keeping one hand on the side handle. ■ Keep the grinder tilted at an angle from 5° to 15° and continuously moving at a steady, consistent pace. NOTE: If the grinder is held in one spot too long, it willEN DE ES IT FR PT NL RU FI SV NO DA PL CS SK SL HR HU RO BG EL AR TR HE LT LV ET English (Original Instructions)

gouge and cut grooves in the workpiece. If the grinder is held at too sharp an angle, it will also gouge the workpiece because of concentration of pressure on a small area. ■ Use just enough pressure to keep the grinder from chattering or bouncing. NOTE: Heavy pressure will decrease the grinder’s speed and put a strain on the motor. Normally the weight of the tool alone is adequate for most grinding jobs. Use light pressure when grinding jagged edges or loose bolts where there is the potential for the grinder to snag on the metal edge. ■ Lift the grinder away from the workpiece before turning off the grinder.
