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.
5. Remove the tool from the work surface before turning
the tool off. Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying
it down.
Metal Applications
When using the tool in metal applications, make sure that
a residual current device (RCD) has been inserted to avoid
residual risks caused by metal swarf.
If the power supply is shut off by the RCD, take the tool to an
authorised D
WALT repair agent.

WARNING: In extreme working conditions, conductive
dust can accumulate inside the machine housing when
working with metal. This can result in the protective
insulation in the machine becoming degraded with a
potential risk of an electrical shock.
To avoid build‑up of metal swarf inside the machine, we
recommend to clear the ventilation slots on a daily basis.
Refer to Maintenance.
Cutting Metal
For cutting with bonded abrasives, always use the
Type a guard.
When cutting, work with moderate feed, adapted to the
material being cut. Do not exert pressure onto the cutting
disc, tilt or oscillate the machine.
Do not reduce the speed of running down cutting discs by
applying sideward pressure.
The machine must always work in an upgrinding motion.
Otherwise, the danger exists of it being pushed uncontrolled
out of the cut.
When cutting profiles and square bar, it is best to start at the
smallest cross section.
Rough Grinding
Never use a cutting disc for roughing.
always use the guard Type B.
The best roughing results are achieved when setting the
machine at an angle of 30 ° to 40 °. Move the machine
back and forth with moderate pressure. In this manner, the
workpiece will not become too hot, does not discolour and
no grooves are formed.
Cutting Stone
The machine shall be used only for dry cutting.
For cutting stone, it is best to use a diamond cutting
disc. Operate the machine only with additional dust
protection mask.
Working Advice
Exercise caution when cutting slots in structural walls.
Slots in structural walls are subject to the country‑specific
regulations. These regulations are to be observed under
all circumstances. Before beginning work, consult
the responsible structural engineer, architect or the
construction supervisor.
