5. Initial Operation

5.1 Attaching the additional handle
Always work with the additional handle
attached (13)! Attach the additional handle on
the left or right of the machine and secure.
5.2 Attaching the safety guard
(for work involving grinding wheels)
For reasons of safety, the safety guard (14)
should always be attached when roughing
work is performed.
For reasons of safety, the special parting
guard should always be attached before
parting work is performed (see chapter 10.
Accessories).
See illustration E on page 2.
- Pull on the lever (17). Place the safety guard (14)
in the position indicated.
- Release the lever and turn the safety guard until
the lever engages.
- Pull on the (17)lever and turn the safety guard until
the closed section is facing the operator.
- Make sure that the guard is seated securely: the
lever must engage and you should not be able to
turn the safety guard.
5.3 Dust filter
See illustration A on page 2.
Always fit the dust filter if the surroundings are
heavily polluted (10).
The machine heats up faster when the dust
filter is fitted (10). It is protected by the
electronics system from overheating (see
chapter9.).
To fit:
See fig. page 2. Attach the dust filter (10) as shown.
To remove:
Holding the dust filter at the edges, raise it slightly
(10) and then pull it downwards and remove.
5.4 Rotating battery pack
See illustration B on page 2.
The rear section of the machine can be rotated 270°
in three stages, thus allowing the machine's shape
to be adapted to the working conditions. Only
operate the machine when it is in an engaged
position.
5.5 Battery pack
Charge the battery pack before use (9).
If performance diminishes, recharge the battery
pack.
"Li-Power" li-ion battery packs have a capacity and
signal indicator: (8)
- Press the button (7), the LEDs indicate the charge
level.
- If one LED is flashing, the battery pack is almost
flat and must be recharged.
5.6 Removing and inserting the battery pack
Ensure the switch is in the off position
before inserting battery pack. Inserting the
battery pack into power tools that have the switch on
invites accidents.
Removal:
Press the battery pack release (6) button and pull
the battery pack (9) forwards.
Inserting:
Slide in the battery pack (9) until it engages.

6. Attaching the grinding wheel

the battery pack from the machine. The
machine must be switched off and the spindle at a
standstill.
For reasons of safety, attach the parting guard
before performing parting work (see chapter
10. Accessories).
