Braking starts once the power is turned
off. The brake requires a charged battery
to function. Stopping time will vary de-
pending on, among other factors, acces-
sory used, and number of actuations. The
electric brake of your grinder has been
designed for a high degree of reliability,
but unexpected circumstances such as
contamination or failure of the motor's
components can cause the brake to not
activate. If the tool operates but the brake
does not consistently stop the accessory
in about 2 seconds, DO NOT use the grind-
er and have it serviced by a Bosch Factory
Service Center or Bosch authorized ser-
vice facility.
