Roughing: position the machine at an angle of
30° - 40° for the best working results.
Separating:
Always work against the run of the disc
(see illustration). Otherwise there is
the danger of the machine kicking
back from the cut out of control. Guide
the machine evenly at a speed
suitable for the material being processed. Do not tilt,
apply excessive force or sway from side to side.
Sanding:
Press down the machine evenly on the surface and
move back and forth so that the surface of the
workpiece does not become too hot.
Wire brushing:
Press down the machine evenly.
9. Cleaning
Motor cleaning: blow compressed air through the
rear ventilation slots of the machine regularly,
frequently and thoroughly. Here, the machine must
be held firmly.
10. Accessories
Use only genuine Metabo accessories. See page 4.
Use only accessories which fulfil the requirements
and specifications listed in these operating instruc-
tions.
A Safety guard for cut-off grinding
Designed for work with cut-off wheels, diamond
cut-off wheels.
Install as described under "Safety guard for
grinding" (chapter 6.2).
B Hand guard for sanding and wire brushing
operations
Designed for work with support plates, sanding
pads, wire brushes.
Install hand guard under the additional side-
mounted handle.
C Adjusting nut (7)
For a complete range of accessories, see
www.metabo.com or the accessories catalogue.
11. Repairs
Repairs to electrical tools must be carried out
by qualified electricians ONLY!
Contact your local Metabo representative if you
have Metabo power tools requiring repairs. For
addresses see www.metabo.com.
You can download a list of spare parts from
www.metabo.com.
12. Environmental Protection
The sanding dust generated may contain
hazardous materials: do not dispose of with the
household waste, but at a special collection point
for hazardous waste.
Observe national regulations on environmentally
compatible disposal and on the recycling of disused
machines, packaging and accessories.
Only for EU countries: Never dispose of
power tools in your household waste! In
accordance with European Guideline 2002/
96/EC on used electronic and electric equipment
and its implementation in national legal systems,
used power tools must be collected separately and
handed in for environmentally compatible recycling.

The technical specifications quoted are subject to
tolerances (in compliance with the relevant valid
standards).
Emission values
These values make it possible to assess the
emissions from the power tool and to compare
different power tools. Depending on the operating
conditions, the condition of the power tool or the
accessories, the actual load may be higher or lower.
For assessment purposes, please allow for breaks
and periods when the load is lower. Based on the
adjusted estimates, arrange protective measures
for the user e.g. organisational measures.
