Electronic Control
The grinder has an electronic speed control which
provides:
full speed at all times in the range up to rated load.

variable speed (G12VA, G13VA, G15VA)
Kickback Protection
The kickback protection feature cuts off the power
to the motor and stops the power tool in the event
of a sudden drop in the rotational speed of the
wheel during operation (for example, if the wheel
locks during cutting operation, etc.).
0 Voltage Re-start Protection
The 0 voltage restart protection feature prevents the
power tool from restarting after the power has been
temporarily cut off during operation.
Overload Protection
The overload protection feature shuts off the power
to the motor in the event of overloading of the
motor or a conspicuous reduction in rotational speed
during operation.
NOTE:
The grinder is equipped with a rotational speed
control circuit. The rotational speed may fluctuate
slightly due to the conditions of use and working
voltage.

PRIOR TO OPERATION

1. Power source
Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms
to the power requirements specified on the product
nameplate.
NOTE:
When connected to the power supply, the built-in
electronic control circuit shifts to standby status and
the grinder becomes slightly warm, but this is not
a malfunction.
CAUTION
Do not operate from a direct current power source,
engine generator, booster or any other type of
transformer. Doing so may not only cause damage
to the grinder, but may lead to accidents.
2. Power switch
Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position.
If the plug is connected to a receptacle while the
power switch is in the ON position, the power tool
will start operating immediately, which could cause
a serious accident.
When the kickback protection, 0 voltage re-start
protection or overload protection feature has been
activated, return the power switch to the OFF position
and wait for 1 second or more before re-starting
the power tool.
3. Extension cord
When the work area is removed from the power
source, use an extension cord of sufficient thickness
and rated capacity. The extension cord should be
kept as short as practicable.
4. Fitting and adjusting the wheel guard
The wheel guard is a protective device to prevent
injury should the depressed center wheel be
shattered during operation. Ensure that the wheel
guard is properly fitted and fastened before
commencing grinding operation.
[How to attach and adjust the wheel guard](Fig. 2)
Set the wheel ass'y to the packing gland.
Tighten M5 screw to secure the wheel guard while
the lever is in closed position.
Perform the adjustment of the wheel guard while
the lever is released. (Loosen M5 screw and readjust
if the wheel guard does not rotate smoothly.)
