Approved Grinding Tools
All grinding tools mentioned in these operating instructions
can be used.
The permissible speed [min
-1
] or the circumferential speed
[m/s] of the grinding tools used must at least match the values
given in the table.
Therefore, observe the permissible rotational/circumferen-
tial speed on the label of the grinding tool.
Rotating the Machine Head (GWS 18V-... C)
Before any work on the machine itself (e. g. mainte-
nance, tool change, etc.) as well as during transport
and storage, remove the battery from the power tool.
There is danger of injury when unintentionally actuating
the On/Off switch.
The machine head can be
rotated with respect to
the machine housing in
90° steps. In this man-
ner, the On/Off switch
can be brought into a
more convenient position
for special working situa-
tions, e.g. for left-handed
persons.
Completely unscrew the
four screws. Rotate the
machine head carefully, without removing it from the hous-
ing, to the new position. Screw in and tighten the four screws
again.
Dust/Chip Extraction
Dust from materials such as lead-containing coatings,
some wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to
one’s health. Touching or breathing-in the dust can cause
allergic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of
the user or bystanders.
Certain dust, such as oak or beech dust, is considered car-
cinogenic, especially in connection with wood-treatment
additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials con-
taining asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the
materials to be worked.
Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace. Dust can
easily ignite.
Operation
Starting Operation
Inserting the battery
Insert the charged battery 6 from the front into the base of the
power tool until the battery is securely locked.
Switching On and Off
To start the power tool, push the On/Off switch 5 forwards.
To lock the On/Off switch 5, press the On/Off switch 5 down
at the front until it latches.
To switch off the power tool, release the On/Off switch 5 or,
if it is locked, briefly push down the back of the On/Off switch
5 and then release it.
To save energy, only switch the power tool on when using it.
Check grinding tools before using. The grinding tool
must be mounted properly and be able to move freely.
Carry out a test run for at least one minute with no load.
Do not use damaged, out-of-centre or vibrating grinding
tools. Damaged grinding tools can burst and cause injuries.
Kickback stop
If there is a sudden kickback in the power
tool, e. g. jamming in a separating cut, the
power supply to the motor will be interrupt-
ed electronically.
The LED work light 35 then flashes white
and the status indicator 31 flashes red.
To restart the operation, switch the On/Off switch 5 to the
Off position and start the machine again.
Restarting Protection
The restarting protection feature prevents uncontrolled restart-
ing of the machine after an interruption in the power supply.
When restart protection is activated, the status indicator 31
flashes red.
To restart the operation, switch the On/Off switch 5 to the
Off position and start the machine again.
Impact shutdown
The integrated impact shutdown switches the power tool off
as soon as it hits the floor. The status indicator 31 then flash-
es red.
To restart the operation, switch the On/Off switch 5 to the
Off position and start the machine again.
