Switch On

• Connect the plug to the power inlet.

• Press the switch exactly in the pressing position (A), without releasing it, 

direct the pressure forward (B) and push down slightly, release the switch to 

remain locked.

• To stop operation, press in the pressing position (A) and then release 

the switch.

• Work placing the disc in the right position to prevent damage.

• Press the work piece applying pressure lower than the tool’s weight to prevent 

overload damaging the motor and the disc.

• After installing a new disc allow it to run unloaded at least one minute. If 

vibration occurs replace immediately.

       • Avoid working on wood or soft metals like lead. These 

materials saturate the disc very quickly making it useless.

ENGLISH

The angle grinder is a manual power tool used to grind and cut steel, pipes, iron angles, brick, tile, stone and / or ceramic 

pieces; to remove burr on metal surfaces, to level and make smooth welding lines. If the tool accessory is changed it can be

How to correctly hold the tool

Always hold the tool with both hands.  Hold the 

handle with one hand and the other hand hold the 

auxiliary handle. Be careful not to obstruct the 

ventilation slots.

• Grinding:

For better results hold the tool 15° to 30° regarding 

the work piece. Move forwards to backwards applying 

light pressure with a constant rhythm. This way the 

work piece does not get too hot, will not discolor and 

there will not be rough edges.

• Cutting:

Do not press, tilt or oscillate the tool. Work at a 

moderate speed. The disc should always rotate 

counterclockwise since there is a risk the tool shoots 

out uncontrolled.

To cut hard stones using a diamond cutting disc is 

recommended.

CAUTION

Auxiliary handle assembly

• For a safer operation use the auxiliary handle. 

Fit it into any of the three mounting orifices. 

Use the one that makes your job easier.
