7.2.1 Cutting
▶ When cutting, apply moderate feed pressure and do not tilt the product or the cutting disc to either side
(hold at approx. 90° to the cutting plane).
For best results when cutting profiles and small-section rectangular tubes, start cutting at the
smallest cross section.
7.2.2 Rough grinding
▶ Move the product to and fro while maintaining a 5° to 30° angle of attack and applying moderate pressure.
◁ This will avoid overheating and discoloration of the workpiece and help ensure an even surface finish.
7.3 Switching off
▶ Release the on/off switch.
◁ The safety lock jumps back automatically into the locked position and the motor stops.
