Using the unit
Injury hazard! Do not work without a dust protection
mask and protective goggles. Do not use the unit on
materials which contain asbestos.
1. Switch the unit on via the switch 3 (Fig. 1).
2. Use button 3 to set the unit speed to a speed
appropriate for the work to be performed.
Do not press too hard when using the grinder. Good
grinding performance can only be achieved using the
correct and constant rotational speed. To achieve the
best results when roughening, apply the grinding disc
to the grinding surface at an angle of between 30° and
40° and move evenly back and forth over the
workpiece. Do not bend the grinding disc into the
cutting surface during cutting work.
If the unit overheats, switch it off and allow it to cool.
Maintenance :
Disconnect the plug from the mains before performing
any maintenance or cleaning work.
After use
Clean the unit thoroughly, removing all grinding dust
with a brush or a soft cloth. Ensure all ventilation slots
are free from obstruction.
The power cord shall be replaces by part no. 38544-32
only, if the cord is damaged.
