Metabo WPB 13-125 Quick DS Operating Instructions - Page 13

Avoid inadvertent starts: always switch the tool off when the plug is removed from the mains socket or if there has been a power cut. WA..., WBA..., WEA..., WEVA..., WEBA..., W...RT: In continuous operation, the machine continues running if it is forced out of your hands. Therefore, always hold the machine with both hands using the handles provided, stand securely and concentrate. Avoid the machine swirling up or taking in dust and chips. After switching off the machine, only put it down after the motor has come to a standstill. Machines with slide switch: 5 0 I Switching on: Push the slide switch (5) forward. For continuous activation, now tilt downwards until it engages. Switching off: Press the rear end of the slide switch (5) and release it. Machines with paddle switch (with dead man function): I 0 1110 Switching on: Slide paddle switch (11) in the direction of the arrow and then press the paddle switch (11). Switching off: Release the paddle switch (11). Machines with the designation W...RT: Torque activation (with dead man's lever) ENGLISH en position to lock the trigger switch (9) (continuous operation). Switching off: Push the trigger switch (9) upwards and release. 7.3 Working directions Grinding and sanding operations: Press down the machine evenly on the surface and move back and forth so that the surface of the workpiece does not become too hot. Rough grinding: position the machine at an angle of 30° - 40° for the best working results. Abrasive cutting-off operations: Always work against the run of the disc (see Figure). Otherwise there is the danger of an out of control machine kicking back from the cut. Guide the machine evenly at a speed suitable for the material being processed. Do not tilt, apply excessive force or sway from side to side. Wire brushing / polishing work: Press down the machine evenly. 7.4 Rotate gear housing See illustration E on page 3. - Disconnect from the power supply. - Unscrew the fastening screw (a) of the lever (17). Remove the screw, lever (with its sheet metal part) and put aside. - Unscrew the 4 gear housing screws (b). CAUTION! Do not remove the gear housing! - Turn the gear housing to the desired position without removing it. - Screw in the 4 gear housing screws (b) in the available threads! Tightening torque = 3.0 Nm +/0.3 Nm. - Slide the spring that pushes the lever in position to the side and re-insert the lever (17) (with its sheet metal part), and fix with the fastening screw (a). Tightening torque = 5,0 Nm +/- 0,5 Nm. Check the lever for correct function: it has to be under spring tension. 0 I 9 Switching on: Slide the trigger switch (9) forwards and then push the trigger switch (9) upwards. Switching off: Release the trigger switch (9). Machines with the designation W...RT: Continuous operation (depending on features) 8. Cleaning It is possible that particles deposit inside the power tool during operation. This impairs the cooling of the power tool. Conductive build-up can impair the protective insulation of the power tool and cause electrical hazards. The power tool should be cleaned regularly, often and thoroughly through all front and rear air vents using a vacuum cleaner. Prior to this operation, separate the power tool from the power source and wear protective glasses and dust mask. 9. Troubleshooting 9 Machines with VTC, TC and VC electronics: 0 I The electronic signal display (7) lights up Switching on: Switch the machine on as described above. Now slide the trigger switch (9) forwards again and release in the front and the load speed decreases (not W...RT). There is too much load on the machine! Run the machine in idle until the electronics signal indicator switches off. 13
