READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS

Double Insulation

Double insulated tools are constructed throughout with two separate of electrical insulation or one double thickness of insulation between and the tool's electrical system. Tools built with this insulation system not intended to be grounded. As a result, your tool is equipped with prong plug which permits you to use extension cords without conce maintaining a ground connection.

NOTE: Double insulation does not take the place of normal s precautions when operating this tool. The insulation system is for protection against injury resulting from a possible electrical insu failure within the tool.

Auxiliary Handle

An auxiliary handle is furnished with your grinder and can be installed on either side of the front housing. THIS HANDLE SHOULD BE USED AT ALL TIMES to maintain complete control of the tool.

TOOL OPERATION

Paddle Switch

To start the grinder, slide the lock off lever to the rear of the tool while you are depressing it at the same time. To turn the tool off, release the paddle. The switch can be locked on by engaging the lock button located near the rear of the tool while holding the paddle depressed. Always be sure that the tool is not locked on before plugging it in. To turn the tool off when it is locked on, squeeze and release the paddle once.

Spindle Lock Button

In order to prevent the spindle of the tool, rotating while installing or removing accessories, a spindle lock button been provided in the gear head of the machine, as shown in Figure 1. De spindle lock button and rotate the spindle until the lock pin engages with the spindle. NEVER DEPRESS THE LOCK BUTTON WITH THE RUNNING OR COASTING.

Sanding With Abrasive Discs (Figure 3)

To install sanding discs:

1. TURN OFF TOOL AND DISCONNECT FROM POWER SUPPLY.
2. Push the hub of the disc nut through the center of the sanding di far as it will go, and also through the backing disc.

3. Put the assembled discs on the tool spindle and engage the dis into the disc nut hub.

4. Thread the assembly clockwise, completely down on the spindle.

5. Engage the lock button to lock the spindle in place.

When using a sanding disc, hold the tool at an angle of 10^-15^ to the work as shown in Figure 4. If only the outer edge of the sanding disc is used, a rough cut surface will result. If the sanding disc is pressed flat against the work, the surface will be irregular and bumpy, and the tool will be difficult to control.

Wire Brushing

Common applications for wire cup brushes include cleaning welds, angles, corners and removal of paint.

1. Disconnect tool from power source. Rest grinder on its back with spindle facing up.
2. Ensure that the rated speed of the wire brush is equal to or higher than the rated speed of the grinder found on the nameplate.

Precautions To Take When Sanding Paint

1. 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.
2. 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

a. No children or pregnant women should enter the work area where the paint sanding is being done until all clean up is completed.
b. 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 dust masks suitable for working with lead pain and fumes should be used. Ordinary painting masks do not offer protection. See your local hardware dealer for the proper N.I.C approved mask.

c. NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should be done in the work to prevent ingesting contaminated paint particles. Workers should and clean up BEFORE eating, drinking or smoking. Articles of drink, or smoking should not be left in the work area where dust or settle on them.

ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY

a. Paint should be removed in such a manner as to minimize the am of dust generated.
b. Areas where paint removal is occurring should be sealed with p sheeting of 4 mils thickness.
c. Sanding should be done in a manner to reduce tracking of pain outside the work area.

CLEANING AND DISPOSAL

a. All surfaces in the work area should be vacuumed and thoro cleaned daily for the duration of the sanding project. Vacuum filte should be changed frequently.
b. Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up and disposed of along any dust chips or other removal debris. They should be placed in: refuse receptacles and disposed of through regular trash pi procedures.
During clean up, children and pregnant women should be kept from the immediate work area.
c. All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by children show washed thoroughly before being used again.

MAINTENANCE ACCESSORIES

Cleaning

Blowing dust and grit out of the motor housing using compressed air is a necessary regular maintenance procedure. Dust and grit containing metal particles often accumulate on interior surfaces and could create an electrical shock hazard if not frequently cleaned out. ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES.

CAUTION: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for cleaning the non-metallic parts of the tool. Use clean, dry rag only.

Lubrication

B&D tools are properly lubricated at the factory and are ready for use. Tools should be relubricated regularly every sixty days to six months, depending on usage. (Tools used constantly on production or heavy-duty jobs and tools exposed to heat may require more frequent lubrication.) This lubrication should only be attempted by trained power tool repairpersons, such as those at B&D service centers or in other qualified service organizations.

Motor Brushes

Your tool is equipped with the B&D CHECKPOINT™ system. When the brushes become worn out, the tool will automatically stop and prevent damage to the motor. Brush replacement should be performed by B&D authorized service centers.

IMPORTANT!

To assure product safety and reliability, particularly for double insulated tools, repairs, maintenance and adjustment (excluding maintenance described in this manual) should be performed by B&D service centers or authorized service centers, using identical B&D replacement parts.
