Installing and Removing the Battery Pack from
the tool
Warning! Make certain the lock-off button is engaged to
prevent switch actuation before removing or installing battery.
To install battery pack (Fig. C)
Insert battery pack firmly into tool until an audible click is
u
heard as shown in figure C. Ensure battery pack is fully
seated and fully latched into position.
To remove battery pack (Fig. D)
Depress the battery release button (6b) as shown in
u
figure D and pull battery pack out of tool.
Storage hook (Optional extra) (Fig. E)
Warning! To reduce the risk of serious personal injury,
place the forward/reverse button in the lock-off position or
turn tool off and disconnect battery pack before making
any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or
accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.
Warning! To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, ensure
the screw (10) holding the storage hook is secure.
Note: When attaching or replacing the storage hook (9),
use only the screw (10) that is provided. Be sure to securely
tighten the screw.
If the hook is not desired at all, it can be removed from
the tool.
To move the storage hook, remove the screw (10) that holds
the storage hook (9) in place.
Note: Various trackwall hooks and storage configurations
are available.

Fitting and removing the guard (Fig. F, G)
The tool is supplied with a guard intended for grinding
purposes. Ensure you use the correct guard specific for the
intended operation. If the unit is intended to perform cutting
off operations, a guard (16, Fig G) specific for this operation
must be fitted .
Fitting
Place the tool on a table, with the spindle (11) facing up.
u
Release the clamping lock (12) and hold the guard (5)
u
over the tool as shown.
Align the lugs (13) with the notches (14).
u
Press the guard down and rotate it counterclockwise to
u
the required position.
Fasten the clamping lock (12) to secure the guard to
u
the tool.
If required, tighten the screw (15) to increase the
u
clamping force.

(Original instructions)
Removing
Release the clamping lock (12).
u
Rotate the guard clockwise to align the lugs (13) with the
u
notches (14).
Remove the guard from the tool.
u
Warning! Never use the tool without the guard.
Switching on and off
To switch on, slide the lock off switch (1) forward then
u
press and hold the trigger switch (2).
To switch off, release the trigger switch (2).
u
Warning! Do not switch the tool on or off while under load.
Warning! Always slide the lock off switch (1) backwards to the
locked position when the tool is not in use.
Hints for optimum use
Firmly hold the tool with one hand around the side handle
u
and the other hand around the main handle.
Surface grinding with grinding wheels
Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool
u
to the work surface.
Apply minimum pressure to the work surface, allowing the
u
tool to operate at high speed. Grinding rate is greatest
when the tool operates at high speed.
Maintain a 20˚ to 30˚ angle between the tool and
u
work surface.
Continuously move the tool in a forward and back motion
u
to avoid creating gouges in the work surface.
Remove the tool from work surface before turning tool off.
u
Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying it down.
Edge grinding with grinding wheels
Wheels used for cutting and edge grinding may break or kick
back if they bend or twist while the tool is being used to do
cut-off work or deep grinding. To reduce the risk of serious
injury, limit the use of these wheels with a standard
Type 27 guard to shallow cutting and notching (less than
13 mm in depth). The open side of the guard must be
positioned away from the operator. For deeper cutting with a
Type 1 cut-off wheel, use a closed Type 1 guard.
Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool
u
to the work surface.
Apply minimum pressure to the work surface, allowing the
u
tool to operate at high speed. Grinding rate is greatest
when the tool operates at high speed.
Position yourself so that the open-underside of the wheel
u
is facing away from you.
Once a cut is begun and a notch is established in the
u
workpiece, do not change the angle of the cut. Changing
the angle will cause the wheel to bend and may cause
wheel breakage. Edge grinding wheels are not designed
to withstand side pressures caused by bending.
