, have not been tested with this product, use
of such accessories with this tool could be hazardous.

Consult your dealer for further information on the
appropriateaccessories.
Cleaning

WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of the main housing
with dry air as often as dirt is seen collecting in and around
the air vents. Wear approved eye protection and approved
dust mask when performing thisprocedure.

WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals
for cleaning the non-metallic parts of the tool. These
chemicals may weaken the materials used in these parts.
Use a cloth dampened only with water and mild soap.
Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any
part of the tool into aliquid.
Lubrication
Your power tool requires no additionallubrication.
1. Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool
to the worksurface.
2. Apply minimum pressure to the work surface, allowing
the tool to operate at high speed. Grinding/cutting rate is
greatest when the tool operates at highspeed.
3. Position yourself so that the open-underside of the wheel is
facing away fromyou.
4. Once a cut is begun and a notch is established in the
workpiece, do not change the angle of the cut. Changing
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.
Cutting Metal
For cutting with bonded abrasives, always use the
guardtype1.
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27.
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.
MAINTENANCE
Your power tool has been designed to operate over a long
period of time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous
satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool care and
regularcleaning.
