How to use

Before use, select the correct disc for the intended task and ensure it is rated for the grinder's speed. Fit the disc securely and check that the safety guard is correctly positioned. Hold the grinder with both hands using the main body grip and auxiliary handle where available. Apply steady, controlled pressure—do not force the tool—keeping the disc at the appropriate angle for grinding or cutting. Allow the tool to reach full speed before contacting the workpiece and maintain a stable stance throughout the operation. After finishing, switch off the tool and wait until the disc has stopped completely before setting the grinder down or changing accessories.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment including safety goggles, hearing protection, gloves and respiratory protection when cutting or grinding dusty materials. Match disc type and maximum RPM rating to the task and avoid side-loading cutting discs. Regularly inspect the tool, guard and power cable for damage and replace worn consumables to maintain safe, consistent performance.
