OPERATION
Hold the grinder in front and away from you with both
hands, keeping the grinding wheel clear of the workpiece.
Turn on the grinder and let the motor and grinding wheel
build up to full speed.
Lower the grinder gradually until the grinding wheel
contacts the workpiece.
WARNING:
To prevent loss of control and possible serious personal
injury, always operate the grinder with both hands,
keeping one hand on the side handle.
Keep the grinder tilted at an angle from 5° to 15° and
continuously moving at a steady, consistent pace.
NOTICE:
If the grinder is held in one spot too long, it will gouge
and cut grooves in the workpiece. If the grinder is held
at too sharp an angle, it will also gouge the workpiece
because of concentration of pressure on a small area.
Use just enough pressure to keep the grinder from
chattering or bouncing.
NOTE: Heavy pressure will decrease the grinder's speed and
put a strain on the motor. Normally the weight of the tool
alone is adequate for most grinding jobs. Use light pressure
when grinding jagged edges or loose bolts where there is
the potential for the grinder to snag on the metal edge.
Lift the grinder away from the workpiece before turning
off the grinder.
