OPERATING PROCEDURES

Grinding and Cut-off Wheels
This angle grinder is designed to accept only 4" abrasive discs with a 5/8"
bore. Check to ensure that any discs used on this machine are rated for the
12,000 rpm speed of this grinder. Check also for any damage to an abrasive disc
before installing. Any disc that is cracked, has been dropped, or subjected
to other damage due to temperature extremes or solvents should be discarded. A
damaged disc can fly apart in use and may cause serious injury to the operator or
bystanders.
Guard
This grinder comes with an adjustable wheel guard installed. This is to allow you to
grind at various angles and still be protected to some extent from flying residue or
debris should a disc shatter in use. Unplug the grinder. Loosen the clamping screw
on the collar and rotate the guard to give you protection and expose the disc on the
appropriate side. Tighten the screw to clamp the guard in place. Do not use this
tool with the guard removed.
Side Handle
The auxiliary side handle for the grinder may be mounted on either the left or right
side of the tool. Unplug the grinder. Screw the handle firmly into the threaded hole
on either side of the metal grinding head.
Installing a grinding wheel or cutting disc
Unplug the grinder.
Turn the tool upside down.
Place the inner flange on the spindle so that it matches with the flats on the shaft.
Fit the disc over the boss on the inner flange.
Screw the wheel-retaining nut down over the disc. Depending on the disc thick -
ness, the boss on the outer flange nut can face down or up.
Fit the two prongs of the wrench into the holes in the outer flange nut.
Depress the spindle lock button and firmly tighten the nut with the wrench.
Turn the wheel by hand, checking for any obstruction.
Running the TOOL
Plug in the tool.
Hold the tool firmly with one hand on the side handle and the other gripping
the housing. Check to make sure the abrasive disc is not obstructed. Slide the
switch on the left side of the machine forward with your thumb. Switching the
tool on or off under load will damage the switch.
To turn the tool off, slide the switch back.
