OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: Before using the tool, read the instruction
book carefully.
ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENT
MOUNTING THE PROTECTIVE DEVICES
1. AUXILIARY HANDLE (SEE FIG. A)
For all work with the machine, the auxiliary handle must be
mounted.
Screw the auxiliary handle on the right or left of the machine
head depending on the working method.
WARNING: Do not make any alterations
to the auxiliary handle.
Do not continue to use an auxiliary handle if it
is damaged.
MOUNTING THE GRINDING TOOLS
Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
Grinding and cutting discs become very hot
while working; do not touch until they have
cooled.
1. SPINDLE LOCKING BUTTON (SEE FIG. B)
Clean the grinder spindle and all parts to be mounted. For
clamping and loosening the grinding tools, lock the grinder
spindle with the Spindle Locking Button (2).
Actuate the Spindle Locking Button (2) only
when the grinder spindle is at a standstill!
2. ASSEMBLING THE PROTECTION GUARD
(SEE FIG. C-E)
Align the projection on the guard with the indentation on
the gear box. Put the Wheel Guard for Grinding down firmly.
(See Fig. C)
Loosen the clamping screw, if necessary.
Place the wheel guard with coded projection into the coded
groove on the spindle collar of the machine head and rotate
to the required position (working position). (See Fig. D)
Tighten clamping screw. (See Fig. E)
NOTE: The closed side of the wheel guard must always
point to the operator.
WARNING! For work with grinding or
cutting discs, the wheel guard must be
mounted.

3. GRINDING/CUTTING DISC (NOT SUPPLIED)
(SEE FIG. F-I)
Screw on the inner flange. (See Fig. F)
Pay attention to the dimensions of the
grinding disc. The mounting hole diameter
must fit the inner flange without play. Do not
use reducers or adapters.
When using a diamond cutting disc, take care that the
direction-of-rotation arrow on the diamond cutting disc and
the direction of rotation of the machine (direction-of-rotation
arrow on the machine head) agree.
Place the disc on the tool spindle and inner flange. (See Fig.
G,H) Ensure it is correctly located. Fit the threaded outer
flange making sure it is facing in the correct direction for the
type of disc fitted.
Screw on the outer flange. (See Fig. I)
4. ADJUSTABLE OUTER FLANGE CLAMPING
(SEE FIG. J, K)
The outer flange should be adjusted to suit different disc
thickness. For thinner cutting or diamond discs the raised
part of the outer flange is fitted facing away from the disc
(See Fig. J). For thicker grinding discs the raised part of
the outer flange is fitted facing towards the disc to provide
improved support for the disc hole (See Fig. K). Always
ensure your disc is securely clamped.
STARTING OPERATION
To start the power tool, push the On/Off Switch forward.
To lock the On/Off Switch, press the On/Off Switch down at
the front until it engages.
To switch off the power tool, release the On/Off Switch or, if
it is locked, briefly push down the back of the On/Off Switch
and then release it. (See Fig. L)
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
• Clamp the workpiece if it does not remain stationary due
to its own weight.
• Do not strain the machine so heavily that it comes to a
standstill.
• Grinding and cutting discs become very hot while working;
do not touch until they have cooled.
• Pull the plug from the socket-outlet when
not using the machine. With the plug inserted and
mains voltage existing, the power tool still has low power
consumption even when it switched off.
1. HAND GRIP AREAS (SEE FIG. M)
Always hold your angle grinder firmly with both hands when
operating (See Fig. M).
