wear work gloves when handling wire brushes
and wheels. They can becomesharp.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of damage to the
tool, wheel or brush must not touch guard when
mounted or while in use. Undetectable damage
could occur to the accessory, causing wires to
fragment from accessory wheel orcup.
Wire cup brushes or wire wheels install directly on the
threaded spindle without the use of flanges. Use only wire
brushes or wheels provided with a M14 threaded hub.
These accessories are available at extra cost from your local
dealer or authorised servicecenter.

forwards for higher speed and downwards for
lowerspeed.
Prior to Operation
• Install the guard and appropriate disc or wheel. Do not
use excessively worn discs orwheels.
• Be sure the inner and outer flange are mounted
correctly. Follow the instructions given in the Grinding
and Cutting AccessoryChart.
• Make sure the disc or wheel rotates in the direction of
the arrows on the accessory and thetool.
• Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use
inspect the accessory such as abrasive wheels for chips
and cracks, backing pad for cracks, tear or excess wear,
wire brush for loose or cracked wires. If power tool or
accessory is dropped, inspect for damage or install an
undamaged accessory. After inspecting and installing
an accessory, position yourself and bystanders away
from the plane of the rotating accessory and run the
power tool at maximum no-load speed for one minute.
Damaged accessories will normally break apart during
this testtime.
OPERATION

WARNING: Always observe the safety instructions
and applicableregulations.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from
power source before making any adjustments or
removing/installing attachments or accessories.
An accidental start-up can causeinjury.

WARNING:
• Ensure all materials to be ground or cut are
secured inplace.
• Secure and support the workpiece. Use clamps
or a vice to hold and support the workpiece
to a stable platform. It is important to clamp
and support the workpiece securely to prevent
movement of the workpiece and loss of control.
Movement of the workpiece or loss of control may
create a hazard and cause personalinjury.
• Support panels or any oversized workpiece
to minimize the risk of wheel pinching and
kickback. Large workpieces tend to sag under
their own weight. Supports must be placed under
the workpiece near the line of cut and near the
edge of the workpiece on both sides of thewheel.
• Always wear regular working gloves while
operating thistool.
• The gear becomes very hot duringuse.
