How to use

Fit a compatible 125 mm disc according to the disc manufacturer's instructions and secure it with the correct flange and nut. Hold the grinder with both hands, using the main body and the auxiliary handle to maintain control. Start the tool and allow it to reach full speed before bringing the disc into contact with the workpiece. Use steady pressure and move the tool along the work surface; avoid forcing the grinder and let the abrasive or cutting disc do the work. Follow standard safety procedures including eye, ear and hand protection, and ensure appropriate ventilation when working on coated or dusty materials.

Usage recommendations

Choose disc types and grit sizes matched to the task — cutting discs for slicing through metal, flap or grinding discs for metal finishing, and diamond or abrasive discs designed for masonry and stone. Regularly inspect discs for wear or damage, and replace them if cracked or excessively worn. Allow the motor to cool during prolonged use and perform routine maintenance as described in the manufacturer's instructions to ensure consistent performance.
