RISK OF INJURY!
►
Always use the angle grinder with the blade 
guard . The blade guard should be installed 
securely. Set it so that the highest possible 
degree of safety is achieved, i.e. the smallest 
possible part of the grinding disc is exposed 
to the operator (see Figs. C, D). The blade 
guard is designed to protect the operator 
from fragments and accidental contact with 
the grinding tool. The blade guard has 5 stop 
positions.
►
Turn the blade guard to the required position 
(working position). 
The closed side of the blade guard must 
always be toward the operator.

For safety reasons this appliance may only 
be used with the additional handle . 
The additional handle can be screwed on
the left or the right depending on the work 
method.
