secure by tightening the hex socket screw (Pic.4).
INSTALLING GRINDING DISCS (PICS. 3 & 5)
Make sure the Angle Grinder is unplugged from the mains
supply socket. Turn the Angle Grinder onto its back (Pic.3).
Locate and depress the spindle lock button. Using the wrench
supplied insert the pins into the holes on the disc clamping nut.
Turn the wrench anti-clockwise to release the disc clamping nut.
If the disc backing washer is removed it must be replaced the
correct way round. The correct way to fit this onto the shaft can
be seen in Pic.5.
NOTE: There are different types of discs used for different
applications. Select the correct one for the work being done.
Make sure the disc backing washer flats are located correctly
with the flats on the shaft. The grinding disc should be placed
onto the Angle Grinder with the writing facing upwards.
INSTALLING A NEW DISC (PICS. 6 & 7)
Place the disc over the shaft locating it onto the disc backing
washer. It can be seen that the backing washer has a raised lip.
The hole in the disc should match the diameter of the raised lip,
keeping the disc mounted central (Pic.6) Refit the disc clamping
nut (Pic.6). Tighten with fingers until the disc is clamped. Locate
and depress the spindle lock and using the supplied wrench,
(Pic.7) tighten the locking washer in a clockwise direction until
the disc is firmly clamped but do not over tighten. Release the
spindle lock and turn the Angle Grinder over.
The side handle can be fitted to either side of the machine to
suit the operator (Pic.8) ensure that the side handle is secured
but do not over tighten.
Connect the Angle Grinder to a suitable mains supply socket. It
is advisable to use an approved Residual current device (RCD).
If in doubt consult an approved electrician.
FOR YOUR SAFETY PLEASE FOLLOW THE THESE
INSTRUCTIONS
Working with an Angle Grinder should always be done in a
suitable designated work area for safety reasons. Hot sparks
are generated when grinding. Any debris nearby could be
ignited resulting in a fire. Read all the safety instructions before
using the Angle Grinder.
