and use a wrench on the
hub of the wire wheel or brush to tighten thewheel.
4. To remove the wheel, reverse the aboveprocedure.
NOTICE: To reduce the risk of damage to the tool,
properly seat the wheel hub before turning the toolon.
Prior to Operation
• Install the guard and appropriate disc or wheel. Do not
use excessively worn discs orwheels.
• Be sure the backing and threaded locking flange are
mounted correctly. Follow the instructions given in the
Grinding and Cutting AccessoryChart.
• Make sure the disc or wheel rotates in the direction of
the arrows on the accessory and thetool.
• Do not use a damaged accessory. 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 testtime.
OPERATION

injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from
power source before making any adjustments or
removing/installing attachments or accessories.
An accidental start-up can causeinjury.
Proper Hand Position (Fig. G)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury,
ALWAYS use proper hand position as shown.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, ALWAYS hold securely in anticipation of a
suddenreaction.
Proper hand position requires one hand on the side
handle

Slider Switch (Fig.A)
CAUTION: Hold the side handle and body of the tool
firmly to maintain control of the tool at start up and
during use and until the wheel or accessory stops
rotating. Make sure the wheel has come to a complete
stop be fore laying the tooldown.
CAUTION: To reduce unexpected tool movement,
do not switch the tool on or off while under load
conditions. Allow the grinder to run up to full speed
before touching the work surface. Lift the tool from the
surface before turning the tool off. Allow the tool to
stop rotating before putting itdown.
WARNING: Before connecting the tool to a power
supply, be sure the slider switch is in the off position
by pressing the rear part of the switch and releasing.
Ensure the slider switch is in the off position as
described above after any interruption in power
supply to the tool, such as the activation of a ground
fault interrupter, throwing of a circuit breaker,
accidental unplugging, or power failure. If the slider
switch is locked on when the power is connected, the
tool will startunexpectedly.
To start the tool, slide the ON/OFF slider switch
8
toward
the front of the tool. To stop the tool, release the ON/OFF
sliderswitch.
For continuous operation, slide the switch toward the front
of the tool and press the forward part of the switch inward.
To stop the tool while operating in continuous mode, press
the rear part of the slider switch andrelease.
Spindle Lock (Fig.A)
The spindle lock
2
is provided to prevent the spindle from
rotating when installing or removing wheels. Operate the
spindle lock only when the tool is turned off, unplugged
from the power supply, and has come to a completestop.
NOTICE: To reduce the risk of damage to the tool, do
not engage the spindle lock while the tool is operating.
Damage to the tool will result and attached accessory
may spin off possibly resulting ininjury.
To engage the lock, depress the spindle lock button
and rotate the spindle until you are unable to rotate the
spindlefurther.
Surface Grinding, Sanding and Wire
Brushing (Fig. I)
CAUTION: Always use the correct guard per the
instructions in thismanual.
WARNING: Metal dust build-up. Extensive use
of flap discs in metal applications can result in the
increased potential for electric shock. To reduce this
risk, use an RCD or GFCI before use and clean the
ventilation slots daily by blowing dry compressed air
into the ventilation slots inaccordance with the below
maintenanceinstructions.
To perform work on the surface of a workpiece:
1. Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the
tool to the worksurface.
2. Apply minimum pressure to the work surface, allowing
the tool to operate at high speed. Material removal rate
is greatest when the tool operates at highspeed.
