GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY
WARNINGS
WARNING: Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings
and instructions may result in electric shock, re and/
or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to
your mains-operated (corded) power tool or batteryoperated (cordless) power tool.
1. WORK AREA SAFETY
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or
dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
5
Page 6
18V CORDLESS ANGLE GRINDER EN
ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
2. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with ear thed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges
or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk
of electric shock.
3. PERSONAL SAFETY
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under
the inuence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use safety equipment . Always wear eye
protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will
reduce personal injuries.
c) Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is
in the off-position before plugging in. Carrying
power tools with your nger on the switch or
6
plugging in power tools that have the switch on
invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control of
the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery
or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used. Use of these
devices can reduce dust-related hazards.
4. POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct power
tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not
turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must
be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or the battery pack from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions
to operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power
tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused
by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking
Page 7
18V CORDLESS ANGLE GRINDER EN
into account the working conditions and the
work to be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
5. BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Recharge only with the charger specied by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one
type of battery pack may create a risk of re when
used with another battery pack.
b) Use power tools only with specically
designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and re.
c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects like paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects,
that can make a connection from one terminal
to another. Shorting the battery terminals together
may cause burns or a re.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, ush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation
or burns.
6. SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualied
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL
OPERATIONS
Safety Warnings Common for Grinding or Abrasive
Cutting-Off Operations:
a) This power tool is intended to function as a
grinder, or cut-off tool. Read all safety warnings,
instructions, illustrations and specications
provided with this power tool. Failure to follow
all instructions listed below may result in electric
shock, re and/or serious injury.
b) Operations such as grinding or cutting-off are
not recommended to be performed with this
power tool. Operations for which the power tool
was not designed may create a hazard and cause
personal injury.
c) Do not use accessories which are not
specically designed and recommended by the
tool manufacturer. Just because the accessory
can be attached to your power tool, it does not
assure safe operation.
d) The rated speed of the accessor y must be at
least equal to the maximum speed marked on the
power tool. Accessories running faster than their
rated speed can break and y apart.
e) The outside diameter and the thickness of your
accessory must be within the capacity rating
of your power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories
cannot be adequately guarded or controlled.
f) Threaded mounting of accessories must match
the grinder spindle thread. For accessories
mounted by anges, the arbour hole of the
accessory must t the locating diameter of
the ange. Accessories that do not match the
mounting hardware of the power tool will run out of
balance, vibrate excessively and may cause loss of
control.
g) Do not use a damaged accessor y. Before each
use inspect the accessory such as abrasive
wheels for chips and cracks, backing pad for
cracks, tear or excess wear, wire brush for loose
or cracked wires. If power tool or accessory
is dropped, inspect for damage or install an
undamaged accessory. After inspecting and
installing an accessory, position yourself and
bystanders away from the plane of the rotating
accessory and run the power tool at maximum
no-load speed for one minute.
Damaged accessories will normally break apart
during this test time.
h) Wear personal protective equipment. Depending
on application, use face shield, safety goggles or
safety glasses. As appropriate, wear dust mask,
hearing protectors, gloves and workshop apron
capable of stopping small abrasive or workpiece
fragments. The eye protection must be capable
of stopping ying debris generated by various
operations . The dust mask or respirator must be
capable of ltrating particles generated by your
operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity
noise may cause hearing loss.
i)
Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work
area. Anyone entering the work area must wear
personal protective equipment. Fragments of
workpiece or of a broken accessory may y away and
7
Page 8
18V CORDLESS ANGLE GRINDER EN
cause injury beyond immediate area of
j) Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only, when performing an operation
where the cutting tool may contact hidden
wiring. Contact with a “live” wire will also make
exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and
could give the operator an electric shock.
k) Never lay the power tool down until the
accessory has come to a complete stop. The
spinning accessory may grab the surface and pull
the power tool out of your control.
l) Do not run the power tool while carrying it at
your side. Accidental contact with the spinning
accessory could snag your clothing, pulling the
accessory into your body.
m) Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents. The
motor’s fan will draw the dust inside the housing
and excessive accumulation of powdered metal
may cause electrical hazards.
n) Do not operate the power tool near ammable
materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.
o) Do not use accessories that require liquid
coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants may
result in electrocution or shock.
Further safety instructions for all operations
Kickback and Related Warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged
rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or any other
accessory. Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling
of the rotating accessory which in turn causes the
uncontrolled power tool to be forced in the direction
opposite of the accessory’s rotation at the point of the
binding.
For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or
pinched by the workpiece, the edge of the wheel that
is entering into the pinch point can dig into the surface
of the material causing the wheel to climb out or kick
out. The wheel may either jump toward or away from
the operator, depending on direction of the wheel’s
movement at the point of pinching. Abrasive wheels
may also break under these conditions.
Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or
incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can
be avoided by taking proper precautions as given
below.
a) Maintain a rm grip on the power tool and
position your body and arm to allow you to resist
kickback forces. Always use auxiliary handle, if
operation.
8
provided, for maximum control over kickback or
torque reaction during start-up. The operator can
control torque reactions or kickback forces, if
proper precautions are taken.
b) Never place your hand near the rotating accessory.
Accessory may kickback over your hand.
c) Do not position your body in the area where
power tool will move if kickback occurs. Kickback
will propel the tool in direction opposite to the
wheel’s movement at the point of snagging.
d) Use special care when working corners, sharp
edges etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the
accessory. Corners, sharp edges or bouncing
have a tendency to snag the rotating accessory
and cause loss of control or kickback.
e) Do not attach a saw chain woodcar ving blade or
toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent
kickback and loss of control.
Safety Warnings Specic for Grinding and Abrasive
Cutting-Off Operations:
a) Use only wheel t ypes that are recommended for
your power tool and the specic guard designed
for the selected wheel. Wheels for which the
power tool was not designed cannot be adequately
guarded and are unsafe
b) The grinding sur face of centre depressed wheels
must be mounted below the plane of the guard
lip. An improperly mounted wheel that projects
through the plane of the guard lip cannot be
adequately protected.
c) The guard must be securely attached to the power
tool and positioned for maximum safety, so the
least amount of wheel is exposed towards the
operator. The guard helps to protect the operator
from broken wheel fragments, accidental contact
with wheel and sparks that could ignite clothing.
d) Wheels must be used only for recommended
applications. For example: do not grind with the
side of cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels
are intended for peripheral grinding, side forces
applied to these wheels may cause them to shatter.
e) Always use undamaged wheel anges that
are of correct size and shape for your selected
wheel. Proper wheel anges support the wheel
thus reducing the possibility of wheel breakage.
Flanges for cut-off wheels may be different from
grinding wheel anges.
Page 9
18V CORDLESS ANGLE GRINDER EN
f) Do not use worn down wheels from larger power
tools. Wheel intended for larger power tool is not
suitable for the higher speed of a smaller tool and
may burst.
Additional Safety Warnings Specic for Abrasive
Cutting-Off Operations:
a) Do not “jam” the cut-off wheel or apply excessive
pressure. Do not attempt to make an excessive
depth of cut. Overstressing the wheel increases
the loading and susceptibility to twisting or binding
of the wheel in the cut and the possibility of
kickback or wheel breakage.
b) Do not position your body in line with and behind
the rotating wheel. When the wheel, at the point
of operation, is moving away from your body, the
possible kickback may propel the spinning wheel
and the power tool directly at you.
c) When wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut
for any reason, switch off the power tool and hold
the power tool motionless until the wheel comes
to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove
the cut-off wheel from the cut while the wheel
is in motion otherwise kickback may occur.
Investigate and take corrective action to eliminate
the cause of wheel binding.
d) Do not restar t the cutting operation in the
workpiece. Let the wheel reach full speed and
carefully re-enter the cut. The wheel may bind,
walk up or kickback if the power tool is restarted in
the workpiece.
e) Suppor t panels or any oversized workpiece
to minimize the risk of wheel pinching and
kickback. Large workpieces tend to sag under
their own weight. Supports must be placed under
the workpiece near the line of cut and near the
edge of the workpiece on both sides of the wheel.
f) Use extra caution when making a “pocket cut”
into existing walls or other blind areas. The
protruding wheel may cut gas or water pipes,
electrical wiring or objects that can cause
kickback.

4. SPINDLE LOCK BUTTON
The spindle lock button must only be used when
changing a disc.
WARNING: Never press it when the disc is
rotating!
5. DISC FITTING (See Fig. F, G)
The inner ange (9) is located over the spindle and
on the two spindle ats. Locate the disc (11), onto the
inner ange (9) and then place the outer ange (8)
onto the spindle. Press the spindle lock button (1) and
rotate the spindle until it locks, then rmly tighten the
outer ange (8) with the supplied spanner (10). Check
if the disc can rotate freely and is securely clamped.
Make a no load test run for 20 seconds to check disc
vibration and disc run out. To remove a disc, reverse
these instructions.
6. ADJUSTABLE OUTER FLANGE CLAMPING (See Fig. H)
The outer ange (8) should be adjusted to suit
different disc thickness. For thinner cutting or
diamond discs the raised part of the outer ange is
tted facing away from the disc (See b in Fig.H). For
thicker grinding discs the raised part of the outer
ange is tted facing the disc to provide improved
support for the disc hole (See a in Fig.H). Always
ensure your disc is securely clamped.
7. GUARD ADJUSTMENT (See Fig. I)
Before any work on the machine itself, pull the
battery pack.
For work with grinding or cutting discs, the wheel
guard must be mounted.
Wheel Guard for Grinding
Open the quick release lever (12). Place the wheel
guard with coded projection into the coded groove
on the spindle of the machine head and rotate to the
required position (working position).
To fasten the wheel guard, close the quick release
lever (12).
The closed side of the wheel guard must always point
to the operator.
NOTE: with the clamping lever open the clamp adjusting
nut can be adjusted to ensure the guard is securely
clamped after the clamping lever is nally closed.
Wheel Guard for Cutting (no supplied)
WARNING: For cutting metal, always work with
the wheel guard for cutting.
The wheel guard for cutting is mounted in the same
manner as the wheel guard for grinding.
8. REMOVING THE GUARD
Never remove your guard for any other working
conditions. To remove, rst take off the disc and both
anges. Then open the quick release lever (12) and rotate
the guard to align the projections with the gear case cut
outs, then remove the guard. To re-t the guard, repeat
this process in reverse. Keep all parts in a safe place.
9. USE THE GRINDER (See Fig.J)
ATTENTION: Do not switch the grinder on while the
disc is in contact with the workpiece. Allow the disc
to reach full speed before starting grinding.
Hold your angle grinder with one hand on the main
handle and other hand rmly around the auxiliary handle.
Always position the guard so that as much of the
exposed disc as possible is pointing away from you.
Be prepared for a stream of sparks when the disc
touches the metal.
For best tool control, material removal and minimum
overloading, keep an angle between the disc and the
workpiece surface at approximately 15
grinding.
Use cautiously when working into corners as
contacting with the intersecting surface may cause
the grinder to jump or twist.
When grinding is complete, allow the workpiece to
cool. Do not touch the hot surface.
10. OVERLOAD
Overloading will cause damage to the motor of your
angle grinder. This can happen if your angle grinder is
subjected to heavy use for prolonged periods of time.
Never attempt to exert too much pressure on your
angle grinder to speed up your work.
The abrasive discs operate more efciently when light
pressure is exerted, thus avoiding a drop in the speed
of your angle grinder.
If your angle grinder becomes too hot, run it no load
for 2-3 minutes until it has cooled to normal operation
temperature.
11. DISPOSAL OF AN EXHAUSTED BATTERY PACK
To preserve natural resources, please recycle or
dispose of the battery pack properly. This battery pack
contains Lithium batteries. Consult your local waste
authority for information regarding available recycling
and/or disposal options. Discharge your battery pack
o
to 30o when
13
Page 14
18V CORDLESS ANGLE GRINDER EN
by operating your drill, then remove the battery pack
from the drill housing and cover the battery pack
connections with heavy duty adhesive tape to prevent
short circuit and energy discharge. Do not attempt to
open or remove any of the components.
WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR ANGLE
GRINDER
Always start at no load to achieve maximum speed
then start working.
Do not force the disc to work faster, reducing the
Disc’s moving speed means longer working time.
Always work with a 15o to 30o angle between disc
and work-piece. Larger angles will cut ridges into the
work-piece and affect the surface nish. Move the angle
grinder across and back and forth over the work-piece.
When using a cutting disc (no supplied) never change
the cutting angle otherwise you will stall the disc and
angle grinder motor or break the disc. When cutting,
only cut in the opposite direction to the disc rotation.
If you cut in the same direction as the disc rotation
the disc may push itself out of the cut slot.
When cutting very hard material best results can be
achieved with a diamond disc.
When using a diamond disc it will become very hot. If
this happens you will see a full ring of sparks around
the rotating disc. Stop cutting and allow to cool at no
load speed for 2-3 minutes.
Always ensure the work-piece is rmly held or
clamped to prevent movement.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Although your new angle grinder is really very simple
to operate, if you do experience problems, please
check the following:
1. If your grinder disc wobbles or vibrates, check
if the outer ange is tightened or if the disc is
correctly located on the ange plate.
2. Do not use the damaged disc as it may
disintegrate. Remove it and replace with a new
disc. Dispose of old disc sensibly.
3. If working on aluminum or a similar soft alloy, the
disc will soon become clogged and will not grind
effectively.
4. A small amount of battery pack leakage may occur
under extreme temperatures or after heavy use.
Immediately wash any leakage from hands, skin or
clothes with soap and water.
5. The power-draw from the battery generates heat.
This is increased as the energy draw increases.
You will not damage the battery pack and the
generated heated heat is normal. Should you
desire to cool it down, simply allow the drill to
cool off prior to continuing work.
6. The battery pack may get warm when charging.
This is normal. It is a result from the stepping
down of the chemical reactions inside the
batteries during the charging process.
7. The charger will get warm during charging. This
is normal. It is a result of the stepping down of the
main supply.
MAINTENANCE
1. Keep the grinder ventilation slots clean and free
from obstructions. If available, blow compressed
air into the vents to clear any internal dust (safety
goggles must be worn when undertaking this
process).
2. Keep the outer case of the grinder clean and
free from grease. Do not wash with water or use
solvents or abrasive. Use only mild soap and
damp cloth to clean the tool. Never let any liquid
get inside the tool. Never immerse any part of the
tool into a liquid.
3. Your angle grinder requires no additional
lubrication. There are no user serviceable parts in
your power tool.
4. Always store your power tool in a dry place.
