Grinding and sanding operation (Fig. 15)
ALWAYS hold the tool firmly with one hand on housing and
the other on the side handle. Turn the tool on and then
apply the wheel or disc to the workpiece.
In general, keep the edge of the wheel or disc at an angle of
about 15 degrees to the workpiece surface.
During the break-in period with a new wheel, do not work
the grinder in the B direction or it will cut into the workpiece.
Once the edge of the wheel has been rounded off by use,
the wheel may be worked in both A and B direction.
CAUTION:
• Never run the tool without the abrasive disc. You may
seriously damage the pad.
Operation with wire cup brush / wire bevel brush
(optional accessory) (Fig. 16)
CAUTION:
• Check operation of brush by running tool with no load,
insuring that no one is in front of or in line with brush.
• Do not use brush that is damaged, or which is out of
balance. Use of damaged brush could increase poten-
tial for injury from contact with broken brush wires.
Unplug tool and place it upside down allowing easy
access to spindle. Remove any accessories on spindle.
Thread wire cup brush / wire bevel brush onto spindle
and tighten with supplied wrench. When using brush,
avoid applying too much pressure which causes over
bending of wires, leading to premature breakage.
Operation with abrasive cut-off / diamond wheel (optional accessory) (Fig. 17)
The direction for mounting the lock nut and the inner flange varies by wheel thickness.
Refer to the table below.

WARNING:
• When using an abrasive cut-off / diamond wheel, be
sure to use only the special wheel guard designed for
use with cut-off wheels. (In some European countries,
when using a diamond wheel, the ordinary guard can
be used. Follow the regulations in your country.)
• NEVER use cut-off wheel for side grinding.
• Do not “jam” the wheel or apply excessive pressure. Do
not attempt to make an excessive depth of cut. Over-
stressing the wheel increases the loading and suscepti-
bility to twisting or binding of the wheel in the cut and
the possibility of kickback, wheel breakage and over-
heating of the motor may occur.
