FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before adjusting or checking function on the
tool.
Shaft lock (Fig. 1)
CAUTION:
Never actuate the shaft lock when the spindle is mov-
ing. The tool may be damaged.
Press the shaft lock to prevent spindle rotation when
installing or removing accessories.
Switch action (Fig. 2)
CAUTION:
• Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that
the slide switch actuates properly and returns to the
“OFF” position when the rear of the slide switch is
depressed.
Switch can be locked in “ON” position for ease of oper-
ator comfort during extended use. Apply caution when
locking tool in “ON” position and maintain firm grasp on
tool.
To start the tool, slide the switch lever toward the “I (ON)”
position. For continuous operation, press the front of the
switch lever to lock it.
To stop the tool, press the rear of the switch lever, then
slide it toward the “O (OFF)” position.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.
Installing side grip (handle) (Fig. 3)
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the side grip is installed securely
before operation.
Screw the side grip securely on the position of the tool as
shown in the figure.
Installing or removing wheel guard
(For depressed center wheel, multi disc /
abrasive cut-off wheel, diamond wheel) (Fig. 4)
CAUTION:
The wheel guard must be fitted on the tool so that the
closed side of the guard always points toward the oper-
ator.
Mount the wheel guard with the protrusion on the wheel
guard band aligned with the notch on the bearing box.
Then rotate the wheel guard to such an angle that it can
protect the operator according to work. Be sure to tighten
the screw securely.
To remove wheel guard, follow the installation procedure
in reverse.
Installing or removing depressed center grinding
wheel/Multi-disc
WARNING:
Always use supplied guard when depressed center
grinding wheel/Multi-disc is on tool. Wheel can shatter
during use and guard helps to reduce chances of per-
sonal injury.
Mount the inner flange onto the spindle. Fit the wheel/
disc on the inner flange and screw the lock nut onto the
spindle. (Fig. 5)
To tighten the lock nut, press the shaft lock firmly so that
the spindle cannot revolve, then use the lock nut wrench
and securely tighten clockwise.
To remove the wheel, follow the installation procedure in
reverse. (Fig. 6)
WARNING:
Only actuate the shaft lock when the spindle is not
moving.
OPERATION
WARNING:
It should never be necessary to force the tool. The
weight of the tool applies adequate pressure. Forcing
and excessive pressure could cause dangerous wheel
breakage.
ALWAYS replace wheel if tool is dropped while grind-
ing.
NEVER bang or hit grinding disc or wheel onto work.
Avoid bouncing and snagging the wheel, especially
when working corners, sharp edges etc. This can
cause loss of control and kickback.
• NEVER use tool with wood cutting blades and other
saw blades. Such blades when used on a grinder fre-
quently kick and cause loss of control leading to per-
sonal injury.
CAUTION:
After operation, always switch off the tool and wait until
the wheel has come to a complete stop before putting
the tool down.
Grinding and sanding operation (Fig. 7)
ALWAYS hold the tool firmly with one hand on housing
and the other on the side handle. Turn the tool on and
then apply the wheel or disc to the workpiece.
In general, keep the edge of the wheel or disc at an angle
of about 15 degrees to the workpiece surface.
During the break-in period with a new wheel, do not work
the grinder in the B direction or it will cut into the work-
piece. Once the edge of the wheel has been rounded off
by use, the wheel may be worked in both A and B direc-
tion.
