Installation, Setup and Use

Overload Protection:  To prevent tool damage, the grinder is fitted with overload protection. If the grinding load is too great, the tool will automatically stop.  If the tool should stop suddenly, release the paddle switch to reset the tool.  Tool will restart when the paddle switch is re-actuated.

Battery Temperature Cut-out:  If the battery temperature range is exceeded,  the tool will stop working and will not restart until the batteries have cooled to a safe level. 

Kickback Protection: During operation the grinding wheel may sometimes become pinched or bound in the workpiece.  The grinder will detect the abnomal loading and will automatically stop spinnin regardless of the paddle switch position.  To restart, release the paddle switch, and remove the tool from the material in a safe manner. The tool will restart when the paddle switch is actuated.

Electric Brake: When the grinder is operating and the paddle switch is released, the electric brake engages causing the wheel to stop. Generally the wheel stops within 2 seconds. There may be a delay between the time the paddle switch is released and the brake is engaged.  Occaisionally the brake may miss completely. If the brake misses frequently, the grinder should be sent to an authorized service center for evaluation and repair.

Service, Repair, Maintenance

Preventive Maintenance: 

 - No periodic lubrication is required.  The angle head is a sealed unit.

 - Tool vents and the dust cover should be kept free of dust and debris and clean of grease and oil. Use only mild soap and a damp rag to clean.  Do not use more caustic cleaning agents such as gasoline, turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint thinner, chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and household detergents containing ammonia.  Never use combustible or flammable solvents in or around tools.

Repair:

- Disassembly/Reassembly

1. Remove the 4 Gear Case Screws and detach the Angle Head Housing. Replace the Rubber Ring if replacing the Angle Housing.
2. Remove 6 Housing Screws and carefully separate the Housing halves.  Allow the Motor/Drive, Switch and Paddle Switch to lay in one of the halves.
3. The Motor/Drive, Switch, and Paddle Switch can be removed as necessary.
4. Reassembly is the opposite of disassembly taking care to seat components properly in the Housing and to not pinch any wires during reassembly.
