5. OPERATION

Starting Operation

Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage of the power source must agree with the voltage speci-
fied on the nameplate of the machine. Power tools marked with 230 V can also be operated with 220 
V. 
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces 20 and auxiliary handle 3 only. The accessory may 
contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal 
parts of the power tool “live” and shock the operator.
When operating the machine with power from mobile generators that do not have sufficie nt reserve 
capacity or are not equipped with suitable voltage control with starting current amplification, loss of 
performance or untypical behavior can occur upon switching on.
Please observe the suitability of the power generator being used, particularly with regard to the 
mains voltage and frequency.

Switching On and Off
To save energy, only switch th
To start the power tools, push the switch 2 left to"0".
To switch off the power tool, push the switch 2 right to "I" e power tool on when using it.
Check grinding tools before using. The grinding tool must be mounted properly and be able to move 
freely.
Carry out a test run for at least one minute with no load.
Do not use damaged, out-of-centre or vibrating grinding tools.D amaged grinding tools can burst 
and cause injuries.

Working Advice
Exercise caution when cutting slots in structural walls; see Section “Information on Structures”.
Clamp the workpiece if it does not remain stationary due to its own weight.
Do not strain the machine so heavily that it comes to a standstill.
After heavily straining the power tool, continue to run it at no-load for several minutes to cool down 
the accessory.
Do not touch grinding and cutting discs before they have cooled down. The discs can become very 
hot while working.
Do not use the power tool with a cut-off stand.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces and auxiliary handle only. The accessory may con-
tact hidden wiring or its own cord. Accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal 
parts of the power tool “live” and shock the operator.

Rough Grinding
Never use a cutting disc for roughing.
The best roughing results are achieved when setting the machine at an angle of 30° to 40°. Move the 
machine back and forth with moderate pressure. In this manner, the workpiece will not become too 
hot, does not discolour and no grooves are formed.

Flap Disc
With the flap disc (accessory), curved surfaces and profiles
can be worked.

Flap discs have a considerably higher service life, lower noise levels and lower sanding temperatu-
res than conventional sanding sheets.

Cutting Metal
For cutting with bonded abrasives, always use the protection guard for cutting .
When cutting, work with moderate feed, adapted to the material being cut. Do not exert pressure 
onto the cutting disc, tilt or oscillate the machine.
Do not reduce the speed of running down cutting discs by applying sideward pressure.
The machine must always work in an up-grinding motion. Otherwise, the danger exists of it being 
pushed uncontrolled out of the cut.

When cutting profiles and square bar, it is best to start at the
smallest cross section.

If the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to
be done by service agent in order to avoid a safety hazard.
