WARNING! Always work with the grinder’s safety guard in place.

Wear approved safety goggles, ear defenders, gloves and, if grinder generates dust, a dust mask.
Position the power cable clear of the grinding wheel to avoid cutting or snagging it. Hold grinder only by insulated gripping surfaces.
Remove ill fitting clothing. Remove ties, watches, rings and other loose jewellery and contain long hair.
Use grinder in a suitable work area. Keep area clean, tidy and free from unrelated materials and ensure adequate lighting.
Maintain correct balance and footing, DO NOT over-reach. Ensure the floor is not slippery and wear non-slip shoes.
Use only approved grinding discs and only use the normal grinding surface.
Check grinding disc to ensure there are no splits, cracks or other damage (see Section 6). If in doubt DO NOT use the disc.
Grinding discs must be securely attached before use, but not over tightened.
Secure unstable workpiece with a clamp, vice or other adequate holding device and ensure the grinder is gripped with both hands.
Keep non-essential persons away from the working area, use screens if necessary.
DO NOT operate the grinder if any parts are missing or the grinder is damaged.
DO NOT use the grinder for a task it is not designed to perform.
DO NOT operate the grinder where there are flammable solids, liquids or gasses.

WARNING! DO NOT grind any materials containing asbestos.

DO NOT get the grinder wet or use in damp or wet locations.
DO NOT switch the grinder on whilst the disc is in contact with the workpiece.
DO NOT cover the grinder air vents. To do so will overheat the machine.
DO NOT touch the workpiece immediately after grinding, it will be very hot.
DO NOT use the grinder as a fixed tool and DO NOT try to cool the grinding disc with water or other lubricants.
DO NOT touch the grinding disc whilst operating, or whilst plugged into the mains power.
DO NOT leave the grinder running unattended, and DO NOT lay the grinder down whilst it is running.
DO NOT operate the grinder when you are tired or under the influence of alcohol, drugs or intoxicating medication.
When not in use switch off grinder, remove plug from power supply and store in safe, dry, childproof area.
Use only approved grinding discs and only use the normal grinding surface. Never use the side or upper surface of disc for cutting.
The grinding disc may only be changed by a person holding a grinding wheel certificate.
Grinding discs must be securely attached before use, but not overtightened.

Danger of fire/explosion hazard

WARNING! The grinding process can produce streams of sparks which are a potential source of ignition, especially when grinding metal.

DO NOT allow grinder sparks to make contact with the operator’s clothing or any other fabric such as cleaning rags. Fabrics contaminated with flammable materials such as petrol, oil, grease, paint and solvents are a particular fire hazard.
To reduce the risk of clothing catching fire the operator should wear wool or cotton outer garments treated with a fire retardant in preference to man-made fibres.

ASSEMBLY

ATTACHING A GRINDING/CUTTING DISC

NOTE: Discs should only be fitted by a person holding a grinding wheel certificate.

Place the grinding (or cutting) disc over the spindle and onto the clamping flange.
When using flat cutting discs, screw the disc retaining flange nut onto the spindle.
Stop the spindle from turning by pushing in and holding down the spindle lock button (fig.1).
Lock the grinding/cutting disc into place by tightening the disc retaining flange nut with the supplied Hex key.
When complete, release the locking button and check that it has sprung back to its initial position.

OPERATION

WARNING! Ensure you have removed the battery from the grinder before changing accessories.

PREPARATION

Ensure the cutting disc and safety guard are securely fitted and correctly positioned.
Re-attach battery

WARNING! When the grinder first starts it will kick. You must ensure, therefore, that the tool is securely gripped in both hands.
WARNING! Before use, ensure that you are wearing approved safety goggles, ear defenders, appropriate dust mask if dust will be generated and safety gloves, and that all other safety instructions in Section 1 are followed carefully.

ON/OFF CONTROL (fig.1)

The ON/OFF switch is designed to avoid accidental starting.
Once the battery is plugged in start the grinder by pushing the switch (fig.1) forward and down.
To stop the machine press the bottom of the switch.
If the power to the grinder is fails whilst in use release the switch and remove the battery from the grinder. DO NOT reconnect the battery until you are sure that the power has been restored.

GRINDING HEAD ALIGNMENT

Rotate the grinding head until you can depress the spindle locking button (fig.1) and twist the head to the required position. Ensure the disc is correctly mounted and secure before turning the power on.

CUTTING

The key to effective operating is controlling the pressure and surface contact between the disc and the work piece.
WARNING! DO NOT switch the grinder on whilst the disc is in contact with the work piece. Bring the rotating disc to the work piece.
Allow the disc to reach full speed before starting to cut.
When cutting is complete allow the work piece to cool. DO NOT touch the hot surface.
Remove the battery from the grinder from the mains power supply, clean and store in a safe, dry, childproof area.

CUTTING DISCS

WARNING! DO NOT USE DISCS THAT ARE DAMAGED, OR SUSPECTED TO BE DAMAGED.

Before using a grinding/cutting disc ensure that there are no fissures or cracks. Once mounted on the grinder, test the disc before use by facing the grinder in a safe direction (point away from yourself, others and vulnerable items) and run for a short time.
DANGER! Use of damaged discs is dangerous and may cause personal injury.
Grinding and cutting discs used in association with this machine shall be of an adequate speed rating and be suitable for the job in hand. Only persons holding a grinding wheel certificate are authorised to change grinding discs. Ensure that the speed rating on the disc is equal to, or higher than, that of the grinder.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING! Always disconnect the battery before carrying out any inspection, maintenance or cleaning.

GENERAL INSPECTION

Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight.
Repairs should be carried out by an authorised service centre

Clean the body of your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth.
Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts. If dry cleaning is not sufficient, a mild detergent on a damp cloth is recommended.
Water must never come into contact with the tool. Ensure the tool is thoroughly dry before using it.

WARNING! – Risk of Hand Arm Vibration Injury.

This tool may cause Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome if its use is not managed adequately.
This tool is subject to the vibration testing section of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
This tool is to be operated in accordance with these instructions.

Measured vibration emission value (a): . . . . . . . . . . . 1.23 (m/s²)
Uncertainty value (k): . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.5 (m/s²)

Please note that the application of the tool to a sole specialist task may produce a different average vibration emission. We recommend that a specific evaluation of the vibration emission is conducted prior to commencing with a specialist task.

A health and safety assessment by the user (or employer) will need to be carried out to determine the suitable duration of use for each tool.
NB: Stated Vibration Emission values are type-test values and are intended to be typical.
Whilst in use, the actual value will vary considerably from and depend on many factors.
Such factors include; the operator, the task and the inserted tool or consumable.
NB: ensure that the length of leader hoses is sufficient to allow unrestricted use, as this also helps to reduce vibration.

The state of maintenance of the tool itself is also an important factor, a poorly maintained tool will also increase the risk of Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome.

Health surveillance.
We recommend a program of health surveillance to detect early symptoms of vibration injury so that management procedures can be modified accordingly.

Personal protective equipment.
We are not aware of any personal protective equipment (PPE) that provides protection against vibration injury that may result from the uncontrolled use of this tool. We recommend a sufficient supply of clothing (including gloves) to enable the operator to remain warm and dry and maintain good blood circulation in fingers etc. Please note that the most effective protection is prevention, please refer to the Correct Use and
Maintenance section in these instructions. Guidance relating to the management of hand arm vibration can be found on the HSC website www.hse.gov.uk – Hand-Arm Vibration at Work.
