The declared vibration emission value has been

measured in accordance with a standard test

method and may be used for comparing one tool

with another.

The declared vibration emission value may also be

used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.

WARNING: The vibration emission

value during actual use of the power

tool can differ from the declared value

depending on the ways in which the tool

is used. This could lead to a significant

underestimate of exposure when the

tool is used regularly in such a way.

An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration

experienced during a given period of work should

also take into account the times when the tool is

switched off and when it is running idle in addition to

the trigger time.

This may significantly reduce the exposure level over

the total working period.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury,

read the instruction manual.

General Safety Rules

WARNING! Read all instructions. Failure

to follow all instructions listed below

may result in electric shock, fire and/or

serious injury.

The term “power tool” in all of the warnings listed

below refers to your mains-operated (corded) power

tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS

FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

1) WORK AREA SAFETY

a) Keep work area clean and well lit.

Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

b) Do not operate power tools in explosive

atmospheres, such as in the presence of

flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power

tools create sparks which may ignite the dust

or fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders away while

operating a power tool. Distractions can

cause you to lose control.

2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet.

Never modify the plug in any way. Do

not use any adapter plugs with earthed

(grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs

and matching outlets will reduce risk of

electric shock.

b) Avoid body contact with earthed or

grounded surfaces such as pipes,

radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There

is an increased risk of electric shock if your

body is earthed or grounded.

c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet

conditions. Water entering a power tool will

increase the risk of electric shock.

d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the

cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging

the power tool. Keep cord away from

heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.

Damaged or entangled cords increase the

risk of electric shock.

e) When operating a power tool outdoors,

use an extension cord suitable for outdoor

use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use

reduces the risk of electric shock.

f) If operating a power tool in a damp

location is unavoidable, use a residual

current device (RCD) protected supply.

Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric

shock.

3) PERSONAL SAFETY

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and

use common sense when operating a

power tool. Do not use a power tool while

you are tired or under the influence of

drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of

inattention while operating power tools may

result in serious personal injury.

b) Use personal protective equipment.

Always wear eye protection. Protective

equipment such as dust mask, non-skid

safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection

used for appropriate conditions will reduce

personal injuries.

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure

the switch is in the off-position before

connecting to power source and/or

battery pack, picking up or carrying the

tool. Carrying power tools with your finger

on the switch or energising power tools that

have the switch on invites accidents.

ENGLISH

32

d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench

before turning the power tool on. A

wrench or a key left attached to a rotating

part of the power tool may result in personal

injury.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper

footing and balance at all times. This

enables better control of the power tool in

unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose

clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,

clothing and gloves away from moving

parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair

can be caught in moving parts.

g) If devices are provided for the connection

of dust extraction and collection facilities,

ensure these are connected and properly

used. Use of dust collection can reduce

dust-related hazards

4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the

correct power tool for your application.

The correct power tool will do the job

better and safer at the rate for which it

was designed.

b) Do not use the power tool if the switch

does not turn it on and off. Any power

tool that cannot be controlled with the switch

is dangerous and must be repaired.

c) Disconnect the plug from the power

source and/or the battery pack from

the power tool before making any

adjustments, changing accessories, or

storing power tools. Such preventive safety

measures reduce the risk of starting the

power tool accidentally.

d) Store idle power tools out of the reach

of children and do not allow persons

unfamiliar with the power tool or these

instructions to operate the power tool.

Power tools are dangerous in the hands of

untrained users.

e) Maintain power tools. Check for

misalignment or binding of moving parts,

breakage of parts and any other condition

that may affect the power tools operation.

If damaged, have the power tool repaired

before use. Many accidents are caused by

poorly maintained power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp

cutting edges are less likely to bind and are

easier to control.

g) Use the power tool, accessories and

tool bits etc., in accordance with these

instructions taking into account the

working conditions and the work to

be performed. Use of the power tool for

operations different from those intended

could result in a hazardous situation.

5) BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE

a) Ensure the switch is in the off position

before inserting battery pack. Inserting the

battery pack into power tools that have the

switch on invites accidents.

b) Recharge only with the charger specified

by the manufacturer. A charger that is

suitable for one type of battery pack may

create a risk of fire when used with another

battery pack.

c) Use power tools only with specifically

designated battery packs. Use of any other

battery packs may create a risk of

injury and fire.

d) When battery pack is not in use, keep it

away from other metal objects like paper

clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other

small metal objects that can make a

connection from one terminal to another.

Shorting the battery terminals together may

cause burns or a fire.

e) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be

ejected from the battery, avoid contact.

If contact accidentally occurs, flush with

water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally

seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the

battery may cause irritation or burns.

6) SERVICE

a) Have your power tool serviced by a

qualified repair person using only identical

replacement parts. This will ensure that the

safety of the power tool is maintained.

Additional Speciﬁ c Safety Rules

a) This power tool is intended to function

as a grinder, sander, wire brush, polisher

or cut-off tool. Read all safety warnings,

instructions, illustrations and specifications

provided with this power tool. Failure to follow

all instructions listed below may result in electric

shock, fire and/or serious injury.

b) Do not use accessories which are not

specifically designed and recommended

by the tool manufacturer. Just because the

accessory can be attached to your power tool,

it does not assure safe operation.

c) The rated speed of the accessory must be at

least equal to the maximum speed marked

on the power tool. Accessories running faster

than their rated speed can break and fly apart.

d) The outside diameter and the thickness of

your accessory must be within the capacity

rating of your power tool. Incorrectly sized

accessories cannon be adequately guarded or

controlled.

ENGLISH

34

e) The arbour size of wheels, flanges, backing

pads or any other accessory must properly

fit the spindle of the power tool. Accessories

with arbour holes that do not match the

mounting hardware of the power tool will run

out of balance, vibrate excessively and may

cause loss of control.

f) Do not use a damaged accessory. Before

each use inspect the accessory such as

abrasive wheel 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 test time.

g) Wear personal protective equipment.

Depending on application, use face

shield, safety goggles or safety glasses.

As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing

protectors, gloves and workshop apron

capable of stopping small abrasive or

workpiece fragments. The eye protection must

be capable of stopping flying debris generated

by various operations. The dust mask or

respirator must be capable of filtrating particles

generated by your operation. Prolonged

exposure to high intensity noise may cause

hearing loss.

h) Keep bystanders a safe distance away from

work area. Anyone entering the work area

must wear personal protective equipment.

Fragments of workpiece or of a broken

accessory may fly away and cause injury

beyond immediate area of operation.

i) Hold power tool by insulated gripping

surfaces only, when performing an operation

where the cutting accessory may contact

hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting

accessory contacting a “live” wire may make

exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and

shock the operator.

j) Position the cord clear of the spinning

accessory. If you lose control, the cord may be

cut or snagged and your hand or arm may be

pulled into the spinning accessory.

k) Never lay the power tool down until the

accessory has come to a complete stop. The

spinning accessory may grab the surface and

pull the power tool out of your control.

l) Do not run the power tool while carrying

it at your side. Accidental contact with the

spinning accessory could snag your clothing,

pulling the accessory into your body.

m) Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents.

The motor’s fan will draw the dust inside

the housing and excessive accumulation of

powered metal may cause electrical hazards.

n) Do not operate the power tool near

flammable materials. Sparks could ignite these

materials.

o) Do not use accessories that require liquid

coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants

may result in electrocution or shock.

Safety Warnings Speciﬁ c for

Grinding and Abrasive Cutting-off

Operations

a) Use only wheel types that are recommended

for your power tool and the specific guard

designed for the selected wheel. Wheels for

which the power tool was not designed cannot

be adequately guarded and are unsafe.

b) The guard must be securely attached

to the power tool and positioned for

maximum safety, so the least amount of

wheel is exposed towards the operator. The

guard helps to protect operator from broken

wheel fragments and accidental contact with

wheel.

c) Wheels must be used only for recommended

applications. For example: do not grind with

the side of cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off

wheels are intended for peripheral grinding, side

forces applied to these wheels may cause them

to shatter.

d) Always use undamaged wheel flanges

that are of correct size and shape for your

selected wheel. Proper wheel flanges support

the wheel thus reducing the possibility of wheel

breakage. Flanges for cut-off wheels may be

different from grinding wheel flanges.

e) Do not use worn down wheels from larger

power tools. Wheel intended for larger power

tool is not suitable for the higher speed of a

smaller tool and may burst.

Causes and Operator Prevention

of Kickback

• Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched,

bound or misaligned wheel, wire brush or flap

ENGLISH

35

disc causing an uncontrolled cut-off tool to

lift up and out of the workpiece toward the

operator.

• When the wheel is pinched or bound tightly by

the workpiece, the wheel stalls and the motor

reaction drives the unit rapidly back toward or

away from the operator.

• Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or

incorrect operating procedures or conditions

and can be avoided by taking proper

precautions as given below:

• Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the

unit and position your body and arm to allow

you to resist kickback forces. Kickback forces

can be controlled by the operator, if proper

precautions are taken.

• When wheel is binding, or when interrupting

a cut for any reason, release the trigger and

hold the unit motionless in the material until

the wheel comes to a complete stop. Never

attempt to remove the unit from the work

or pull the unit backward while the wheel is

in motion or kickback may occur. Investigate

and take corrective actions to eliminate the

cause of wheel binding.

• When restarting a cut-off tool in the

workpiece, check that the wheel is not

engaged into the material. If wheel is binding,

it may walk up or kickback from the workpiece

as the tool is restarted.

• Support large panels to minimize the risk of

wheel pinching and kickback. Large panels

tend to sag under their own weight. Support

must be placed under the panel on both sides,

near the line of cut and near the edge of the

panel.

Always lock the trigger switch when carrying or

storing the tool to eliminate unintentional starting.

To unlock the trigger switch, press the lock-off

button. When the lock-off button is depressed to the

unlock icon, the unit is unlocked. The lock-off button

is colored red to indicate when the switch is in its

unlocked position.

Pull the trigger switch (a) to turn the tool ON.

Releasing the trigger switch turns the tool OFF.

NOTE: This tool has no provision to lock the switch in

the ON position, and should never be locked ON by

any other means.

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 tool down.

CAUTION: Allow the tool to reach full

speed before touching tool to the work

surface. Lift the tool from the work

surface before turning the tool off.

SPINDLE LOCK

The spindle lock pin is provided to prevent the

spindle from rotating when installing or removing

wheels. Operate the spindle lock pin only when the

tool is turned off, the battery is removed, and the

wheel has come to a complete stop.

CAUTION: 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 in injury.

To engage the lock, depress the spindle lock button

and rotate the spindle until you are unable to rotate

the spindle further.

Mounting and Using Depressed

Center Grinding Wheels and

Sanding Flap Discs

MOUNTING AND REMOVING HUBBED WHEELS (FIG. 6)

WARNING: To reduce the risk of

serious personal injury, turn tool off and

remove battery pack before making

any adjustments or removing/installing

attachments or accessories.

Hubbed wheels install directly on the M14 threaded

spindle.

1. Thread the wheel on the spindle by hand.

ENGLISH

39

2. Depress the spindle lock button and use a

wrench to tighten the hub of the wheel.

3. Reverse the above procedure to remove the

wheel.

CAUTION: Failure to properly seat

the wheel before turning the tool on

may result in damage to the tool or the

wheel.

MOUNTING NON-HUBBED WHEELS (FIG. 7)

WARNING: To reduce the risk of

serious personal injury, turn tool off and

remove battery pack before making

any adjustments or removing/installing

attachments or accessories.

Depressed center Type 27 grinding wheels must be

used with included flanges.

1. Install the anti-lockup backing flange (f) on

spindle (r) with the raised centre against the

wheel. Be sure the backing flange recess is

seated onto the flats of the spindle by pushing

and twisting the flange before placing the

wheel (s).

2. Place wheel against the backing flange,

centering the wheel on the raised centre of the

backing flange.

3. While depressing the spindle lock button, thread

the clamp nut (g) on spindle. If the wheel you

are installing is more than 3.17 mm (1/8") thick,

place the threaded clamp nut on the spindle so

that the raised centre fits into the center of the

wheel (Fig. 7A). If the wheel you are installing is

3.17 mm (1/8") thick or less, place the threaded

clamp nut on the spindle so that the raised

centre is not against the wheel (Fig. 7B).

4. While depressing the spindle lock button,

tighten the clamp nut with a wrench.

5. To remove the wheel, depress the spindle lock

button and loosen the threaded clamp nut with

a wrench.

NOTE: If the wheel spins after the clamp nut is

tightened, check the orientation of the threaded

clamp nut. If a thin wheel is installed with the pilot on

the clamp nut against the wheel, it will spin because

the height of the pilot prevents the clamp nut from

holding the wheel.

SURFACE GRINDING WITH GRINDING WHEELS

1. Allow the tool to reach full speed before

touching the tool to the work surface.

2. Apply minimum pressure to the work surface,

allowing the tool to operate at high speed.

Grinding rate is greatest when the tool operates

at high speed.

3. Maintain a 20˚ to 30˚ angle between the

tool and work surface.

4. Continuously move the tool in a forward and

back motion to avoid creating gouges in the

work surface.

5. Remove the tool from work surface before

turning tool off. Allow the tool to stop rotating

before laying it down.

EDGE GRINDING WITH GRINDING WHEELS

WARNING: Wheels used for cutting

and edge grinding may break or kick

back if they bend or twist while the tool

is being used to do cut-off work or deep

grinding. To reduce the risk of serious

injury, limit the use of these wheels with

a standard Type 27 guard to shallow

cutting and notching [less than 13 mm

(1/2") in depth]. The open side of the

guard must be positioned away from

the operator. For deeper cutting with

a Type 1 cut-off wheel, use a closed

Type 1 guard.

1. Allow the tool to reach full speed before

touching the tool to the work surface.

2. Apply minimum pressure to the work surface,

allowing the tool to operate at high speed.

Grinding rate is greatest when the tool operates

at high speed.

3. Position yourself so that the open-underside of

the wheel is facing away from you.

4. Once a cut is begun and a notch is established

in the workpiece, do not change the angle of

the cut. Changing the angle will cause the wheel

to bend and may cause wheel breakage. Edge

grinding wheels are not designed to withstand

side pressures caused by bending.

5. Remove the tool from the work surface before

turning the tool off. Allow the tool to stop

rotating before laying it down.

WARNING: Do not use edge grinding/

cutting wheels for surface grinding

applications because these wheels

are not designed for side pressures

encountered with surface grinding.

Wheel breakage and serious personal

injury may result.

Precautions To Take When

Sanding Paint

1. Sanding of lead based paint is NOT

RECOMMENDED due to the difficulty of

controlling the contaminated dust. The greatest

danger of lead poisoning is to children and

pregnant women.

2. Since it is difficult to identify whether or not a

paint contains lead without a chemical analysis,

we recommend the following precautions when

sanding any paint:

PERSONAL SAFETY

1. No children or pregnant women should enter

the work area where the paint sanding is

being done until all clean up is completed.

2. A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all

persons entering the work area. The filter should

be replaced daily or whenever the wearer has

difficulty breathing.

NOTE: Only those dust masks suitable for

working with lead paint dust and fumes should

be used. Ordinary painting masks do not offer

this protection. See your local hardware dealer

for the proper N.I.O.S.H. approved mask.

3. NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should

be done in the work area to prevent ingesting

contaminated paint particles. Workers should

wash and clean up BEFORE eating, drinking

or smoking. Articles of food, drink, or smoking

should not be left in the work area where dust

would settle on them.

ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY

1. Paint should be removed in such a manner as

to minimize the amount of dust generated.

2. Areas where paint removal is occurring should

be sealed with plastic sheeting of 4 mils

thickness.

3. Sanding should be done in a manner to reduce

tracking of paint dust outside the work area.

CLEANING AND DISPOSAL

1. All surfaces in the work area should be

vacuumed and thoroughly cleaned daily for the

duration of the sanding project. Vacuum filter

bags should be changed frequently.

2. Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up and

disposed of along with any dust chips or other

removal debris. They should be placed in sealed

refuse receptacles and disposed of through

regular trash pick-up procedures.

During clean up, children and pregnant women

should be kept away from the immediate work

area.

3. All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by

children should be washed thoroughly before

being used again.

Your DEWALT power tool has been designed to

operate over a long period of time with a minimum

of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation

depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning.

than those offered by DEWALT, have

not been tested with this product, use

of such accessories with this tool could

be hazardous. To reduce the risk of

injury, only DEWALT, recommended

22.2 mm (7/8") arbor hole. If it does not,

it may have been designed for a circular

saw. Accessory ratings must always

be above tool speed as shown on tool

nameplate.

It is important to choose the correct guards, backing

pads and flanges to use with grinder accessories.

Consult your dealer for further information on the

appropriate accessories.
