E-Clutch™
This unit is equipped with an E-Clutch™ (Electronic Clutch),
which in the event of a high-load or wheel pinch, the unit
will be shut off to reduce the reaction torque to the user.
The switch needs to be cycled (turned off and then on) to
restarttool.
Brake
When the switch is released the motor immediately turns
off and electronically brakes stopping the accessoryquickly.
Kickback Brake™
When a pinch, stall, or bind-up event is sensed the
electronic brake engages with maximum force to quickly
stop the wheel, reduce the movement of the grinder, and
shut the grinder off. Turn the unit on to restarttool.
Constant Clutch™
When overloaded or stalled the motor torque is reduced. If
load is reduced the torque and RPM will increase. If the tool
is stalled for an extended amount of time it will shut-off and
require the switch to cycle torestart.

It is important to choose the correct guards, backing pads
and flanges to use with grinder accessories. See page14 for
information on choosing the correctaccessories.

carefully to prevent damage from thermal shock, heat,
mechanical damage, etc. Store in a dry protected area
free from high humidity, freezing temperatures or
extreme temperaturechanges.

Guards
CAUTION: Guards must be used with all grinding
wheels, cutting wheels, sanding flap discs, wire
brushes, and wire wheels. The tool may be used
without a guard only when sanding and surface
finishing with conventional sanding and surface
finishing diamond pads. Refer to Figure A to see
guards provided with the unit. Some applications may
require purchasing the correct guard from your local
dealer or authorized servicecenter.
nOTE: Edge grinding and cutting can be performed with
Type 27 wheels designed and specified for this purpose;
1/4" (6.35 mm) thick wheels are designed for surface
grinding while thinner Type 27 wheels need to be examined
for the manufacturer's label to see if they can be used for
surface grinding or only edge grinding/cutting. A Type 1
guard must be used for any wheel where surface grinding
is forbidden. Cutting can also be performed by using a
Type41 wheel and a Type 1guard.
nOTE: See the Accessories Chart to select the proper guard
/ accessorycombination.
Adjusting and Mounting Guard (Fig. A, C, D)
CAUTION: Turn unit off and unplug the tool before
making any adjustments or removing or installing

on the guard collar using
a ratcheting feature. Your grinder offers two options for
thisadjustment.
• One-touch
TM
: In this position the engaging face
is slanted and will ride over to the next alignment
hole when guard is rotated in a clockwise direction
(spindle facing user) but self-locks in the counter-
clockwisedirection.
• Two-touch
TM
: In this position the engaging face is
straight and squared off. It will NOT ride over to the next
alignment hole unless guard release lever is pressed and
held while simultaneously rotating the guard in either
a clockwise or counter-clockwise direction (spindle
facinguser).
