..................Only for EU countries

Do not dispose of electric equipment together with household waste material!

In observance of European Directive 2002/96/EC on waste electric and electronic equipment and its implementation in accordance with national law, electric equipment that have reached the end of their life must be collected separately and returned to an environmentally compatible recycling facility.

Intended use

The tool is intended for grinding, sanding and cutting of metal and stone materials without the use of water.

Power supply

The tool should be connected only to a power supply of the same voltage as indicated on the nameplate, and can only be operated on single-phase AC supply. They are double-insulated in accordance with European Standard and can, therefore, also be used from sockets without earth wire.

For public low-voltage distribution systems of between 220 V and 250 V.

Switching operations of electric apparatus cause voltage fluctuations. The operation of this device under unfavorable mains conditions can have adverse effects to the operation of other equipment. With a mains impedance equal or less than 0.23 Ohms it can be presumed that there will be no negative effects. The mains socket used for this device must be protected with a fuse or protective circuit breaker having slow tripping characteristics.

2.Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.

3.Keep guards in place.

4.Use only wheels with correct size and wheels having a maximum operating speed at least as high as the highest No Load Speed marked on the tool’s nameplate. When using depressed center wheels, be sure to use only fiberglassreinforced wheels.

5.Check the wheel carefully for cracks or damage before operation. Replace cracked or damaged wheel immediately.

6.Observe the instructions of the manufacturer for correct mounting and use of wheels. Handle and store wheels with care.

9.Do not damage the spindle, the flange (especially the installing surface) or the lock nut. Damage to these parts could result in wheel breakage.

hole wheel, ensure that the thread in the wheel is long enough to accept the spindle length.

11.Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, test run the tool at the highest no load speed for at least 30 seconds in a safe position. Stop immediately if there is any vibration or wobbling that could indicate poor installation or a poorly balanced wheel. Check the tool to determine the cause.

12.Check that the workpiece is properly supported.

13.Hold the tool firmly.

14.Keep hands away from rotating parts.

15.Make sure the wheel is not contacting the workpiece before the switch is turned on.
