− Battery cartridge replacing signal − When the remaining battery capacity gets low, the indicator lamp lights up during operation signaling that it is time to change the battery. − Accidental re-start preventive function − Even if the battery cartridge is inserted on the tool with the slide switch in the "I (ON)" position, the tool does not start. At this time, the lamp flickers slowly and this shows that the accidental re-start preventive function is at work. − To start the tool, first slide the slide switch toward the "O (OFF)" position and then slide it toward the "I (ON)" position. ASSEMBLY CAUTION: • Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the battery cartridge is removed before carrying out any work on the tool. Installing or removing wheel point 1. Wrench 13 2. Wheel point 3. Collet nut 4. Wrench 13 1 2 3 4 011468 Loosen the collet nut and insert the wheel point into the collet nut. Use one wrench to hold the spindle and the other one to tighten the collet nut securely. The wheel point should not be mounted more than 8 mm (5/16") from the collet nut. Exceeding this distance could cause vibration or a broken shaft. To remove the wheel point, follow the installation procedure in reverse. OPERATION 011478 Turn the tool on without the wheel point making any contact with the workpiece and wait until the wheel point reaches maximum speed. Then apply the wheel point to the workpiece gently. To obtain a good finish, move the tool in the leftward direction slowly. CAUTION: • Apply light pressure on the tool. Excessive pressure on the tool will only cause a poor finish and overloading of the motor. MAINTENANCE CAUTION: • Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the battery cartridge is removed before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance. • Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result. Replacing carbon brushes 1. Limit mark 1 8 mm (5/16") Max. 011469 CAUTION: • A 1/4" collet cone is provided as standard equipment. Use an optional collet cone 1/8" to install a 1/8" shank wheel point. 001145 Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly. Replace when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders. Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same time. Use only identical carbon brushes. 7
