• During the break-in period with a new wheel, do not work the grinder in direction
B or it will cut the workpiece.
• Once the edge of the wheel has rounded off with use, the wheel can be worked
in both the A and B directions.
Attention
• When using an abrasive diamond / cut-off wheel, be sure to use only the
special blade guard designed for use with cut-off wheels.
• Never use a cut-off wheel for side grinding.
• Do not "jam" the disc or apply excessive pressure. Do not try to cut too deep.
Overloading the blade increases the load and susceptibility to twisting or
binding the blade in the cut and the potential for kickback, blade breakage and
motor overheating can occur.
• Do not start the cutting operation on the work piece. Allow the wheel to come up
to full speed and carefully enter the cut by moving the tool forward over the
surface of the workpiece. The blade can bind, ride up, or back up if the power
tool is started on the workpiece.
• During cutting operations, never change the angle of the blade. Applying side
pressure to the cutting blade (as in grinding) will cause the blade to crack and
break, resulting in serious personal injury.
• A diamond blade should be used perpendicular to the material being cut.
Operation with abrasive parting / diamond disc (optional accessory)
• Remove the battery cartridge from the tool and turn it upside down to allow
easy access to the spindle.
• Mount the inner flange and abrasive cut-off/diamond wheel on the spindle.
• Tighten the locknut securely with the supplied wrench.
• The direction to mount the lock nut and inner flange varies depending on the
thickness of the disc.
Wire cup brush operation (optional accessory)
Attention
• Check brush operation by running tool without load, making sure no one is in
front of or in line with brush.
• Do not use a damaged or unbalanced brush. Using a damaged brush could
increase the possibility of injury from contact with broken brush wires.
