Never edit two items at the same time.
It is forbidden to intervene in the construction of the device to change its parameters or construction.
Keep devices away from fire and heat sources.
While working with the machine, pay special attention to the phenomenon of recoil, in which the machine suddenly reacts and blocks the rotating disc. Blocking the rotating tool causes the machine to jerk or pull against the direction of rotation of the disc. The setback is a consequence of improper use of the machine.
Do not use any parts or accessories that are not intended for this device unless they are specified and approved by the manufacturer as compatible.
The rated speed of the accessory must be at least equal to the maximum speed of the device,otherwise accessories that rotate faster than their specified rated speed may be destroyed.
The parameters of the accessories used (discs, sandpaper) must comply with the technical parameters indicated in the table, otherwise the device will not be properly secured and controlled.
The mounting of the accessories must match the mounting kit of the device.
Elements of the accessories that are not suitable for the mounting kit of the device may lose stability, vibrate and the user may lose control of these parts as a result.
Do not use damaged accessories. Before each use, check the condition of the accessories for chips, breaks, cracks or excessive wear.
Check the device for damage in the event of a fall. After checking and replacing damaged items, safely place the device on the user and third parties so that they are not near the rotating elements. Turn on the device to the highest speed level and let it run continuously for about 1 minute. Damaged parts should fall apart during this procedure
Only touch the device on the insulated grip surfaces, as hidden cables or a separate power cord may be found while working. Contact with the power cord can cause an electric shock.
Keep the power cord away from the rotating parts. If you lose control of the device, the cable can be severed or pinched and the link can be pulled into the rotating accessory.
Do not set the device aside until it is completely turned off. Rotating elements can come into contact with the surface and tear the device out of the user’s control.
Do not start the device when wearing it on your body. Accidental contact of clothing with rotating accessories can cause the rotating elements to attach to the wearer’s body.
Do not use accessories that require coolant. The use of water or liquid coolant can cause an electric shock.
Hold the device in place so that you can withstand the force surges caused in the event of a setback. If available, use the additional handle to gain maximum control over the recoil or torque during operation.
Keep body parts away from rotating parts, as these elements can bounce off in their direction.
Do not place your body in the direction in which the recoil may occur. The setback directs the device in the opposite direction to the rotation.
Be especially careful when working on corners or sharp edges. Avoid blockages and contact with random objects during operation. This may cause you to lose control of the device.

Working with the device
Switching on and off the device, as well as the speed control

The device is designed for manual work and can be used in any position.
Before starting work, select a suitable abrasive depending on the material to be processed. Place the selected material on the plate, then connect the device to the power supply and press the On/Off button.
To start the device, press the power button.
Select the appropriate operating speed (the device speed can be set with the speed adjustment buttons in the range of 4,000 to 10,000 rpm. With each push of a button, the speed is increased or decreased by 1000 rpm.
After grinding, release the power lever and press the on/off button. WARNING: Place the device on the surface you want to machine before you start grinding and move the device away from the surface you want to machine before turning it on. This prevents the workpiece from showing grooves.

Replacement of the grinding controller

Insert the plate key between the plate and brake seal to hold the nut.
Rotate the plate counterclockwise to remove it.
Assemble the new plate and tighten it. Attention! The use of an original sanding disc is recommended!
Remove the plate key

Fastening of grinding accessories

To attach the sandpaper, press the adhesive side of the paper against the sanding disc.

Note: If the adhesion of the sandpaper surface weakens, it may detach from the sanding disc and injure the operator. Then the grinding disc should be replaced.

Dusk extraction

The device is not supplied with its own suction device, but you should always work with the vacuum cleaner, as dust is hazardous to health. Connect a vacuum cleaner with a 40 mm diameter pipe and use an antistatic pipe to reduce the electrical charge. Note: When disposing of hazardous dust, observe local regulations.
Tips for working with the device:

Always hold the device with two hands during operation!
Before starting work, clean the wall of protruding nails, screws and electrical installation components, as these can damage the device and be dangerous to the operator.
During work, only a small pressure should be applied so that the entire plate fits evenly on the surface. Excessive pressure can lead to visible traces and unevenness of the surface.
It should be borne in mind that the performance and quality of grinding depends mainly on the correct abrasive and the speed chosen depending on the type of surface to be machined.
