English
– Do not use separate reducing bushings or adapters to
adapt large hole abrasive wheels;
– For tools intended to be fi tted with threaded hole wheel,
ensure that the thread in the wheel is long enough to
accept the spindle length;
– Check that the work piece is properly supported;
– Do not use cutting off wheel for side grinding;
– Ensure that sparks resulting from use do not create
a hazard e.g. do not hit persons, or ignite fl ammable
substances;
– Ensure that ventilation openings are kept clear when
working in dusty conditions, if it should become
necessary to clear dust, fi rst disconnect the tool from
the mains supply (use non metallic objects) and avoid
damaging internal parts;
– Always use eye and ear protection. Other personal
protective equipment such as dust mask, gloves,
helmet and apron should be worn;
– Pay attention to the wheel that continues to rotate after
the tool is switched off .

Electronic Control
The grinder has an electronic speed control which provides:
○ full speed at all times in the range up to rated load.
○ soft-start.
○ variable speed
○ Kickback Protection
The kickback protection feature cuts off the power to
the motor and stops the power tool in the event of a
sudden drop in the rotational speed of the wheel during
operation (for example, if the wheel locks during cutting
operation, etc.).
○ 0 Voltage Re-start Protection
The 0 voltage restart protection feature prevents the
power tool from restarting after the power has been
temporarily cut off during operation.
○ Overload Protection
The overload protection feature shuts off the power
to the motor in the event of overloading of the motor
or a conspicuous reduction in rotational speed during
operation.
NOTE
The grinder is equipped with a rotational speed control
circuit. The rotational speed may fl uctuate slightly due
to the conditions of use and working voltage.

APPLICATIONS
○ Removal of casting fi n and fi nishing of various types of
steel, bronze and aluminum materials and castings.
○ Grinding of welded sections or sections cut by means of
a cutting torch.
○ Grinding of synthetic resins, slate, brick, marble, etc.
○ Cutting of synthetic concrete, stone, brick, marble, and
similar materials.
PRIOR TO OPERATION
1. Power source
Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms
to the power requirements specifi ed on the product
nameplate.
NOTE
When connected to the power supply, the built-in
electronic control circuit shifts to standby status and
the grinder becomes slightly warm, but this is not a
malfunction.
CAUTION
Do not operate from a direct current power source,
engine generator, booster or any other type of
transformer. Doing so may not only cause damage to
the grinder, but may lead to accidents.
2. Power switch
Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position. If
the plug is connected to a receptacle while the power
switch is in the ON position, the power tool will start
operating immediately, which could cause a serious
accident.
When the kickback protection, 0 voltage re-start
protection or overload protection feature has been
activated, return the power switch to the OFF position
and wait for 1 second or more before re-starting the
power tool.
3. Extension cord
When the work area is removed from the power source,
use an extension cord of suffi cient thickness and rated
capacity. The extension cord should be kept as short as
practicable.
