Before starting the equipment

Warning!
Always remove the battery pack before making adjustments to the equipment.
5.1 Fitting the additional handle (Fig. 2)

• The angle grinder must not be used without the additional handle (3).
• The additional handle can be secured in any of two positions (A, B).

5.2 Adjusting the guard (Fig. 3)

• The guard (4) is equipped with an automatic latching function so that it can be adjusted without you having to release a lever or similar.
• To protect your hands, adjust the guard (4) so that the ground material is directed away from your body.
• Do this by simply turning the guard (4) into the required position.
• No additional fastening of the guard (4) is needed.
• The guard (4) cannot be removed from the tool.

5.3 Fitting/removing the cutting wheel guard (Fig. 4-6 / Item 8)

• The angle grinder is equipped with a removable cutting wheel guard (8).
• The guard (4) does not need to be replaced in order for you to fit the cutting wheel guard.
• Beginning from the end with the lug (Fig. 4/ Item f), push the removable cutting wheel guard (8) onto the guard.
• Make sure when doing so that the guard (4) lies between the guide ribs (g) of the removable cutting wheel guard (Fig. 4).
• Then push the removable cutting wheel guard counter-clockwise onto the guard until you hear this guard latch in place (Fig. 5a-5c).
• To take off the removable cutting wheel guard (8) again, press the lug (f) slightly away from the guard (4) as shown in Fig. 6 until you can rotate the removable cutting wheel guard (8). Now turn the cutting wheel guard clockwise and off the guard (4).

Operation

6.1 Charging the Li battery pack (Fig. 7-8)

1. Remove the battery pack (6) from the handle, pressing the pushlock button (b) downwards to do so.
2. Check that your mains voltage is the same as that marked on the rating plate of the battery charger. Insert the power plug of the charger (7) into the mains socket outlet. The green LED will then begin to flash.
3.  Push the battery pack onto the battery charger.

In section 10 (Charger indicator) you will find a table with an explanation of the LED indicator on the charger.
If the battery pack fails to charge, check for the following:

• voltage at the power socket
• whether there is good contact at the charging contacts of the charging unit

If the battery pack still fails to charge, send

• the charger and charging adapter
• and the battery pack to our customer service center.

To ensure that items are properly packaged and delivered when you send them to us, please contact our customer service or the point of sale at which the equipment was purchased.
When shipping or disposing of batteries and cordless tools, always ensure that they are packed individually in plastic bags to prevent short circuits and fires.
To ensure that the battery pack provides long service, you should take care to recharge it promptly.
You must recharge the battery pack when you notice that the performance of the device drops.
Never allow the battery pack to become fully discharged. This will cause it to develop a defect.
6.2 Battery capacity indicator (Fig. 9/Item d)
Press the battery capacity indicator switch (e).
The battery capacity indicator (d) shows the charge status of the battery using 3 LEDs.
All 3 LEDs are lit:
The battery is fully charged.
2 or 1 LED(s) are lit:
The battery has an adequate remaining charge.
1 LED fl ashes:
The battery is empty, recharge the battery.
All LEDs blink:
The battery temperature is too low. Remove the battery from the equipment, keep it at room temperature for one day. If the fault reoccurs, this means that the rechargeable battery has undergone exhaustive discharge and is defective. Remove the battery from the equipment. Never use or charge a defective battery.
6.3 Switching on (Fig. 10)
To start the equipment, push the On/Off switch (2) forwards and press it down. To switch off the angle grinder, depress the On/Off switch (2) at the back. The On/Off switch (2) will jump back into its starting position.
Important!
Wait until the machine has reached its top speed. You can then position the angle grinder on the workpiece and machine it.
6.4 Changing the grinding wheels (Fig. 11/12)
Use the face spanner (5) supplied to change the grinding wheels. The face spanner (5) is stored in the additional handle (3). Pull the face spanner (5) out of the additional handle (3) when you need it.
Danger! For safety reasons, the angle grinder must not be operated with the face spanner (5) inserted in it.

• Simple wheel change by spindle lock:
• Press the spindle lock and allow the grinding wheel to latch in place.
• Open the flange nut with the face spanner. (Fig. 12)
• Change the grinding or cutting wheel and tighten the flange nut with the face spanner.

Notice!
Only ever press the spindle lock when the motor and grinding spindle are at a standstill!
You must keep the spindle lock pressed while you change the wheel!
For grinding or cutting wheels up to approx. 3 mm thick, screw on the fl ange nut with the fl at side facing the grinding or cutting wheel.
6.5 Flange arrangements when using grinding wheels and cutting wheels (Fig. 13-16)

• Flange arrangement when using a depressed-centre or straight grinding wheel (Fig. 14)
  a) Clamping flange
  b) Flange nut

• Flange arrangement when using a depressed-centre cutting wheel (Fig. 15)
  a) Clamping flange
  b) Flange nut

• Flange arrangement when using a straight cutting wheel (Fig. 16)
  a) Clamping flange
  b) Flange nut

6.6 Test run for new grinding Wheels
Allow the right-angle grinder to run in idle for at least 1 minute with the grinding or cutting wheel fitted in place. Vibrating wheels are to be replaced immediately.
6.7 Grinding Wheels

• Never use a grinding or cutting wheel bigger than the specified diameter.
• Before using a grinding or cutting wheel, check its rated speed.
• The maximum speed of the grinding or cutting wheel used must be higher than the idle speed of the angle grinder.
• Use only grinding and cutting wheels that are approved for a minimum speed of 8,500 rpm and a peripheral speed of 52 m/sec.
• Check the direction of rotation when you use diamond cutting wheels. The directional arrow  on the diamond cutting wheel must point inthe direction in which the tool rotates.

Warning!
Take special care that the grinding/sanding wheels are properly stored and transported.
Ensure that the grinding/sanding wheels are never exposed to shock, jolts or sharp edges (for example during transport or storage in a toolbox).
This could cause damage (such as cracks) to the grinding/sanding wheels and place the user in serious danger.
Warning!
6.8 Operating Modes
6.8.1 Rough grinding (Fig. 17)
Caution: Use the safety device for sanding/ grinding
For the best rough grinding results, hold the grinding wheel at an angle of between 30° and 40° to the workpiece  urface and guide back and forth over the workpiece in steady movements.
6.8.2 Abrasive cutting (Fig. 18)
Important! Use the guard when cutting (see 5.3 for assembly).
When you use the right-angle grinder for cutting purposes, avoid tilting it in the cutting plane. The cutting wheel must have a clean cutting edge. A diamond cutting wheel is best used to cut hard stone.
Warning!
It is prohibited to use the machine on asbestos materials!
Warning!
Never use a cutting wheel for rough grinding.
Important!
To increase the cutting performance and running time of the cordless equipment, we recommend that you use a cutting wheel with a thickness of 1 mm.
6.9 Motor
It is vital for the motor to be well ventilated during operation. Be sure, therefore, to keep the ventilation holes clean at all times.

Cleaning, maintenance and ordering of spare parts

Danger!
Always pull out the battery pack before starting any cleaning work.
7.1 Cleaning

• Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor housing free of dirt and dust as far aspossible. Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it with compressed air at low pressure.
• We recommend that you clean the device immediately each time you have finished using it.
• Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents; these could attack the plastic parts of the equipment. Ensure that no water can seep into the device. The ingress of water into an electric tool  increases the risk of an electric shock.
