Wheel Guard Installation
Wheel guard must be attached
when using disc grinding or
cutting wheels. Always keep wheel guard be tween you
and your work while grinding or cutting.
To attach wheel guard: Disconnect battery pack from
tool.
Press and hold the release lever (Fig. 3), and place the
guard on the guard mounting flange until the guard’s keys
line up with the notches in the spindle collar (Fig. 3A).
Press the guard onto the guard mounting flange until the
shoulder of the guard is seated against the flange of the
tool, and turn the guard until it can clearly be heard to
engage.
Adjust the position of the guard to the requirements
of the work process. For this, press the release lever
upward and turn the guard until it clicks into place then
adjust as needed.
Always adjust the guard in such a manner that the two
cams of release lever engage into the corresponding
notches of the guard (Fig. 3B).
Adjust the guard in such a manner that sparking is
prevented in the direction of the operator.
The guard should turn only upon actuation of the
release lever! Otherwise the tool may not continue to
be used under any circumstances and must be taken
to an after-sales service agent.
Note: The encoding keys on the guard ensure that only a
guard that fits the tool type can be mounted.
To remove guard: Press release lever, rotate guard until
the keys on guard line up with the notches on the guard
mounting flange, and lift guard off the guard mounting
flange (Fig. 3).
Side Handle
The side handle is used to control and balance the tool.
The handle must be thread ed into the front housing on
either side of the tool, depending on per sonal preference
and comfort. Use the side handle for safe control and
ease of operation (Fig. 1).
Hand Guard
(sold separately)
The hand guard is to be used with backing pads,
sanding discs and wire brushes to keep fingers and
hand away from work surface, sharp edges, burrs and
debris. When using the hand guard accessory (sold
separately), insert side handle through hole in guard
and then thread into housing (Fig. 1).
Ensure that hand guard is positioned between hand
and backing pad, sanding disc or wire brush.
