Working procedures
NOTE
►
Grinding tools should only be used for the
recommended applications. Otherwise, they
can break, be damaged or cause injuries.
Rough grinding:
Never use cutting discs for rough
grinding!
■
Move the angle grinder with moderate pres-
sure back and forth over the workpiece.
■
For soft material, move the rough grinding
disc at a shallow angle over the workpiece;
for hard material at a slightly steeper angle.
Abrasive cutting:
Never use rough grinding discs for
cutting!
■
Use only tested fibre-reinforced cutting or
grinding discs that are approved for a circum-
ferential speed of not less than 80 m/s.

CAUTION!
The grinder continues running after being turned
off. Do not try to brake it by applying lateral
counterpressure.
■
Secure the workpiece! Use clamps/a vice to
hold the workpiece firmly in place. This is much
safer than simply holding it in your hand.
■
Always switch off the appliance before put-
ting it away and wait for the appliance to
come to a complete standstill.
■
Release the ON/OFF switch immediately in
the event of a power failure or when the plug
is pulled out. Move it into the OFF position. This
prevents an uncontrolled restart.
■
Use the appliance only for dry cutting or
sanding.
■
The additional handle
the appliance for all work.
■
Materials containing asbestos may not be
processed. Asbestos is a known carcinogen.
Tip! This symbol indicates proper
behaviour.
HAZARD! ALWAYS GUIDE THE
APPLIANCE THROUGH THE WORK-
PIECE IN REVERSE ROTATION.
►
In the opposite direction there is a risk of
kickback. The appliance can be pushed out
of the cut.
■
Always switch the appliance on before apply-
ing it to the workpiece. After completing the
task, lift the appliance from the workpiece and
then switch it off.
■
Always hold the appliance firmly with two
hands while working. Ensure that your stance
is secure and stable.
■
For an optimum grinding effect, move the ap-
pliance evenly at an angle of 15° to 30° (be-
tween grinding disc and workpiece) backwards
and forwards.
