Operating instructions
NOTE
When the power tool is switched off,
the grinding tool continues running briefly.
Rough-grinding
WARNING!
Never use cutting-off wheels for rough-
grinding.
– Angle of wheel 20–40° for best cutting
performance.
– Applying moderate pressure, move the
angle grinder backwards and forwards.
As a result, the workpiece will not
become too hot and there will be no dis-
coloration; nor will there be any grooves.
Cut-off grinding
WARNING!
A special cutting guard must be used
for cutting.
See manufacturer's accessories catalogue.
– The angle grinder must always be opera-
ted backwards, see fig.
Otherwise, there is a risk of the angle
grinder jumping uncontrollably out
of the groove.
– Do not press, tilt or oscillate the power
tool.
– Adjust the feed to the material which
is to be cut:
– the harder the material, the slower
the feed.

rer's products go to www.flex-tools.com.

Maintenance and care
WARNING!
Before carrying out any work on the angle
grinder, always pull out the mains plug.
Cleaning
WARNING!
If metals are ground or cut over a prolonged
period, conductive dust may become
deposited inside the housing. Impairment of
the protective insulation! Operate the power
tool via a residual-current-operated circuit-
breaker (tripping current 30 mA).
Regularly clean the power tool and
ventilation slots. Frequency of cleaning is
dependent on the material and duration of
use.
Regularly blow out the housing interior and
motor with dry compressed air.
Carbon brushes
The angle grinder features cut-off carbon
brushes.
When the wear limit of the cut-off carbon
brushes is reached, the angle grinder
switches off automatically.
NOTE
Use only original parts supplied by the
manufacturer for replacement purposes.
If non-original parts are used, the guarantee
obligations of the manufacturer will
be deemed null and void.
When the power tool is being used,
the carbon brushes can be seen sparking
through the rear air inlet apertures.
If the carbon brushes spark excessively,
switch off the angle grinder immediately.
Take the angle grinder to a customer
service workshop authorised by the manu-
facturer.
