For the best grinding performance move the
device evenly to and fro over the workpiece
maintaining an angle of 15° to 30° (between
grinding disc and workpiece).
When working on inclined surfaces do
not press the device hard down on to
the workpiece. If the speed slows greatly,
use less pressure. This will allow you to work more
effectively and safely. If the device suddenly
stops due to it becoming retarded or trapped,
pull the mains plug from the socket immediately.
Cutting: Advance the device at an
appropriate rate. Do not incline the
cutting disc.
Roughing, grinding and cutting discs
get hot during use – allow them to
cool fully before touching them.
Never use the device for a purpose
for which it was not intended.
Before you insert the mains plug into
the socket, always check that the de-
vice is switched off.
If a dangerous situation arises, pull
the mains plug immediately out of the
mains socket. Ensure that the device and
the mains plug are easily accessible and can
be reached quickly in an emergency.
When taking a break from your
work, before carrying out any tasks
on the device itself and when you are
not using the device, always pull the
mains plug out of the mains socket.
Always keep the device clean, dry and free of
oil or grease.
Remain alert at all times! Always watch
what you are doing and proceed with
caution. Do not use the device if you cannot
concentrate or you are feeling unwell.

or generation of sparks. Check that all the fastenings
are correctly attached.

Release the ON / OFF switch 2 again.
Q
Setting the speed
Select the desired speed before use to suit your
purpose. Turn the speed preselector wheel

to the desired setting. The required rotational
speed depends on the material being worked
and the working conditions and can be deter-
mined by means of a practical test.
The table below shows some recommended
settings (for guidance only and given without
liability) for a number of common applications.
