5. Initial Operation

5.1 For mains powered machines only
Before plugging in the device, check that the
rated mains voltage and mains frequency, as
specified on the rating label, match your power
supply.
Always install an RCD (GFCI) with a max. trip
current of 30 mA upstream.
5.2 For cordless machines only
Dust filter
Always fit the dust filter if the surroundings are
heavily polluted (15).
The machine heats up faster when the dust
filter is fitted (15). It is protected by the elec-
tronics system from overheating (see chapter9.).
Attaching: See page 2, illustration A.
Attach dust filter (15) as shown.
To remove: Holding the dust filter (15) by the upper
edges, raise it slightly and then pull it downwards
and remove.
Rotating battery pack
See illustration B on page 2.
The rear section of the machine can be rotated 270°
in three stages, thus allowing the machine's shape
to be adapted to the working conditions. Only
operate the machine when it is in an engaged posi-
tion.
Battery pack
Charge the battery pack before use (14).
If performance diminishes, recharge the battery
pack.
The ideal storage temperature is between 10°C and
30°C.
"Li-Power" li-ion battery packs have a capacity and
signal indicator: (13)
- Press the button (12), the LEDs indicate the
charge level.
- If one LED is flashing, the battery pack is almost
flat and must be recharged.
Removing and inserting the battery pack
To remove: Press the battery pack release button
(11) and pull the battery pack (14) downwards.
To fit:Slide in the battery pack (14) until it engages.
5.3 Attaching the additional handle

attached (5)! Attach the additional handle on
the left or right of the machine and secure.
5.4 Install safety guard
For safety reasons, always use the safety
guard provided for the respective wheel! See
also chapter 10.
Safety guard for grinding
