7. TO USE THE GRINDER (SEE E)
ATTENTION: Do not switch the grinder on
whilst the disc is in contact with the work-
piece. Allow the disc to reach full speed be-
fore starting to grind.
Hold your angle grinder with one hand on the
main handle and other hand rmly around the
auxiliary handle.
Always position the guard so that as much of the
exposed disc as possible is pointing away from
you.
Be prepared for a stream of sparks when the disc
touches the metal.
For best tool control, material removal and
minimum overloading, maintain an angle
between the disc and work surface of
approximately 15

when grinding.
Use caution when working into corners as
contact with the intersecting surface may cause
the grinder to jump or twist.
When grinding is complete allow the workpiece
to cool. Do not touch the hot surface.

8. CUTTING
WARNING
For cutting metal, always work with
the wheel guard for cutting (15).
When cutting, do not press, tilt or oscillate the
machine. Work with moderate feed, adapted to
the material being cut.
Do not reduce the speed of running down cutting
discs by applying sideward pressure.
The direction in which the cutting is performed
is important.
The machine must always work in an up-grinding
motion. Therefore, never move the machine in
the other direction! Otherwise, the danger exists
of it being pushed uncontrolled out of the cut.
9. TO USE THE ROTATE HANDLE (SEE F)
To best suit the different working positions, your
angle grinder is equipped with a turnable handle.
Press the rear of the locking button (2) on the
turnable handle and you can rotate the handle
900 to left or right. Then release the locking
button. A click will be heard, when the handle is
then fully locked in place.
WARNING
Make sure the handle in the locked
position before start the angle grinder.
Rotating the handle is permitted only in the
switched off condition.
