5.4 Test run for new grinding Wheels
Allow the right-angle grinder to run in idle for at
least 1 minute with the grinding or cutting wheel
fi tted in place. Vibrating wheels are to be replaced
immediately.
6. Operation
6.1 Switch (Fig. 5)
To switch on: The angle grinder comes with a
safety switch which is designed to prevent acci-
dents. To switch on, press down the On/Off switch
(2) at the back while at the same time pushing
it forwards and then press it down at the front to
lock in place.
To switch off : Press the rear, raised part of the
On/Off switch and let it slide back into the original
position.
Wait until the machine has reached its top
speed. You can then position the angle grin-
der on the workpiece and machine it.
6.2 Changing the guard (Fig. 3)
•
Remove the two flanges.
•
Press the clamping lever (a) and turn the gu-
ard (4) as shown in Fig. 3.
•
Remove the guard.
•
To fit the guard, push it onto the equipment

•
Re-fit the two flanges to the spindle.
6.3 Changing the grinding wheels (Fig. 6)
Use the face spanner (5) supplied to change the
grinding wheels.
Important! For safety reasons, the angle grinder
must not be operated with the face spanner (5)
inserted in it.
Pull out the power plug.
•
Simple wheel change by spindle lock:
•
Press the spindle lock and allow the grinding
wheel to latch in place.
•

Important!
Only ever press the spindle lock when the
motor and grinding spindle are at a stand-
still! You must keep the spindle lock pressed
while you change the wheel!
For grinding or cutting wheels up to approx. 5 mm
thick, screw on the fl ange nut with the fl at side
facing the grinding or cutting wheel.

6.5 Motor
It is vital for the motor to be well ventilated during
operation. Be sure, therefore, to keep the ventilati-
on holes clean at all times.
6.6 Grinding Wheels
•
Never use a grinding or cutting wheel bigger
than the specified diameter.
•
Before using a grinding or cutting wheel,
check its rated speed.
•
The wheel´s rated speed must be higher than
the idle speed of the right-angle grinder.
•
Use only grinding and cutting wheels that are
approved for a minimum speed of 11,000 rpm
and a peripheral speed of 80 m/sec.
•
Check the direction of rotation when you use
diamond cutting wheels. The directional arrow
on the diamond cutting wheel must point in
the direction in which the tool rotates.
