correct size and shape for your selected wheel. 

Proper wheel flanges support the wheel thus reducing 

the possibility of wheel breakage. Flanges for cut-off 

wheels may be different from grinding wheel flanges.

Do not use worn down wheels from larger power 

tools. Wheel intended for larger power tool is not 

suitable for the higher speed of a smaller tool and 

may burst.

6.   Electrical safety

Your tool is double insulated; therefore no earth  

wire is required. Always check that the main 

voltage corresponds to the voltage on the rating 

plate.

Warning!

 If the power cord is damaged, it must 

be replaced by the manufacturer, authorized 

Black & Decker Service Center or an equally  

qualified person in order to avoid damage or 

injury. If the power cord is replaced by an 

equally qualified person, but not authorized by 

Black & Decker, the warranty will not be valid.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

FOR SMALL ANGLE GRINDERS

Use the guard and ensure it is fitted correctly.

Check mounting flanges and the disc are correctly  

fitted and are undamaged.

Ensure you are using the correct size and type of disc  

for the task.

Ensure the disc are rated in excess of the spindle rpm   

of your angle grinder. Allow a newly assembled wheel   

to idle off-load for 30 seconds before starting any  

 

operation.

OPERATION

Operating your angle grinder (Fig. A)

To switch on, push the slider switch forward (1). To switch 

off, press the rear of the slider switch.

Fitting the discs (Fig. B and C)

Proceed as follows:

  Disconnect the plug from the electricity supply.

  Ensure the guard is fitted. Place the inner flange (

7

)

  

on the spindle. Ensure it is located on the two flats.

  Place the abrasive disc on the spindle and inner  

flange (8). Ensure it is correctly located.

  Fit the threaded outer flange (9), making sure it is  

facing in the correct direction for the type of disc fitted.  

For grinding discs, the flange (9) is fitted with the  

raised portion facing towards the disc. For cutting  

discs, the flange (9) is fitted with the inner portion  

facing away from the disc.

  Hold the spanner on the flats of the spindle to prevent  

rotation of the disc and tighten the outer flange with  

the spanner provided.

  Press in the spindle lock button and rotate the spindle  

until it locks (Fig. C). Keeping the lock button pressed  

 

in, tighten the outer flange with the spanner provided.

Handy hints (Fig. D)

Hold your angle grinder firmly with one hand around the 

side handle and the other around the body of your angle 

grinder.

  Always position the guard so that as much of the  

exposed disc as possible is pointing away from you.

  Be prepared for a stream of sparks when the disc  

touches the metal.

When grinding, always maintain the correct angle between 

the disc and the work surface (15°)(Fig. D). This increases
