Dewalt DWE46266N Instruction Manual 1 - Page 9

the switch will need to be cycled (turned off and then on) to restart tool. E-Clutch™ This unit is equipped with an E-Clutch™ (Electronic Clutch), which in the event of a high-load or wheel pinch, the unit will be shut off to reduce the reaction torque to the user. The switch needs to be cycled (turned off and then on) to restart tool. Brake When the switch is released the motor immediately turns off and electronically brakes stopping the accessory quickly. Kickback Brake™ When a pinch, stall, or bind-up event is sensed the electronic brake engages with maximum force to quickly stop the wheel, reduce the movement of the grinder, and shut the grinder off. Turn the unit on to restart tool. Constant Clutch™ When overloaded or stalled the motor torque is reduced. If load is reduced the torque and RPM will increase. If the tool is stalled for an extended amount of time it will shut-off and require the switch to cycle to restart. LED Indicator (Fig. A) The LED indicator 7 will remain lit green during normal activity, or blink in a pattern of red light to alert you a tool protection feature has been activated. Refer to the LED Guide at the back of this manual for explanations of blink patterns. ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from power source before making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury. Accessories The capacity of the slicer guard will only fit 6" (150 mm) diameter x 1/16" (1.58 mm) thick T1 grinding wheels. It is important to choose the correct guards, backing pads and flanges to use with grinder accessories. See page 14 for information on choosing the correct accessories. WARNING: Handle and store all abrasive wheels carefully to prevent damage from thermal shock, heat, mechanical damage, etc. Store in a dry protected area free from high humidity, freezing temperatures or extreme temperature changes. Attaching Side Handle (Fig. A) WARNING: Before using the tool, check that the handle is tightened securely. Screw the side handle 4 tightly into one of the holes on either side of the gear case. The side handle should always be used to maintain control of the tool at all times. English Guards CAUTION: Guards must be used with all grinding wheels, cutting wheels, sanding flap discs, wire brushes, and wire wheels. The tool may be used without a guard only when sanding and surface finishing with conventional sanding and surface finishing diamond pads. Refer to Figure A to see guards provided with the unit. Some applications may require purchasing the correct guard from your local dealer or authorized service center. NOTE: Edge grinding and cutting can be performed with Type 27 wheels designed and specified for this purpose; 1/4" (6.35 mm) thick wheels are designed for surface grinding while thinner Type 27 wheels need to be examined for the manufacturer's label to see if they can be used for surface grinding or only edge grinding/cutting. A Type 1 guard must be used for any wheel where surface grinding is forbidden. Cutting can also be performed by using a Type 41 wheel and a Type 1 guard. NOTE: See the Accessories Chart to select the proper guard / accessory combination. Adjusting and Mounting Guard (Fig. A, C, D) CAUTION: Turn unit off and unplug the tool before making any adjustments or removing or installing attachments or accessories. CAUTION: BEFORE operating the tool, identify which guard adjustment option your tool is set to. Adjustment Options For guard adjustment, the guard release lever 15 engages one of the alignment holes 13 on the guard collar using a ratcheting feature. Your grinder offers two options for this adjustment. • One-touchTM: In this position the engaging face is slanted and will ride over to the next alignment hole when guard is rotated in a clockwise direction (spindle facing user) but self-locks in the counterclockwise direction. • Two-touchTM: In this position the engaging face is straight and squared off. It will NOT ride over to the next alignment hole unless guard release lever is pressed and held while simultaneously rotating the guard in either a clockwise or counter-clockwise direction (spindle facing user). 7
