WARNING Failure to follow correct working practices can result in se-
rious injury or death
►Ensure that the workpiece is properly supported
►Avoid wheel jamming when cutting-off. Support the workpiece on both
sides of the cut line to prevent the wheel becoming trapped. If jamming
occurs, release the throttle and ease the wheel free. Check the wheel is
undamaged and properly secured before continuing
►Check that no bystanders are in the vicinity
►Ensure that sparks do not cause a hazard to people or materials
►There is a risk of electrostatic discharge if the tool is used on plastic and
other non-conductive materials
►Personal protective equipment must be used as described in Section Per-
sonal protective equipment
►Slip/Trip/Fall is a major cause of serious injury or death. Watch out for
excess hose left on the walking or work surface
►Proceed with care in unfamiliar surroundings. Hidden hazards may exist,
such as electric or other utility lines
►Maintain a balanced body position and firm footing
►Do not side grind with cutting off wheels and straight wheels or with in-
side of cup wheels
►React quickly to excessive vibration due to damaged, or improperly
mounted insert tool
►Keep away from rotating drive spindle and abrasives. Rotation may con-
tinue for several seconds after the throttle has been released. Do not lay
the tool down until rotation has stopped
►Observe that stored compressed air in the hose may cause an accidental
start
►Release control device if the energy supply should fail
►If a grinder fitted with an abrasive wheel is dropped, the wheel must be
thoroughly examined before reuse
►Disconnect from power supply before changing wheel or servicing
►Always keep the tool in a dry and clean place when not in use

If the failure occurs while the tools is in operation, the wheel manufacturer and
the tool manufacturer should be notified promptly.
Maintenance
Rust protection and internal cleaning
Water in the compressed air, dust and wear particles cause rust and sticking of
vanes, valves etc.
This can be solved by lubricating with oil (a few drops), running the machine
for 5-10 seconds and wiping off excess oil with a cloth. Do this before longer
standstills.
Lubrication
The machine is fitted with an angle gear which is lubricated with a semi-fluid
grease to ensure good wear resistance. The grease should be refilled after about
1000 running hours.
Clean the grease nipple before refilling.
For accurate lubricating properties – use Urethyn GE00 semi-fluid type grease.
The requisite amount of grease is max. 17 cm3. Normal grease consumption is
10 ml/ 1000 running hours. Grease gun will give 0.25 ml/ push.
Do not use ball bearing grease or chassis grease.
Excessive grease fill will result in high temperature. Excessive grease can be
drained through plug hole.
Lubricating guide
Use lubricants of good quality. The oils and greases listed in the lubrication ta-
ble are examples of lubricants that can be recommended.

Overhaul
WARNING Overspeed could result in serious injury or death
►If speed governor is used, check that correct speed governor is assem-
bled. Careless handling may put it out of order
►Do not disassemble security parts, e.g. speed governor or overspeed shut-
off. These parts must be completely replaced when damaged
►Always check the free speed of the machine after service. See Section
Preparation before using the grinder
For preventive maintenance, the grease in the angle gear should be changed af-
ter roughly 1000 hours of operation. See the directions under Lubrication.
The entire machine should be checked regularly at six-months intervals. If it is
in heavy duty service or not running properly it should be taken out of service
more often for inspection.
The strainer at the air inlet should be cleaned frequently to prevent clogging and
decreased capacity.
Keep the magnetic oil plug (in the angle gear housing) clean.
Clean the motor parts and apply a thin layer of air lubrication oil onto the
vanes and inner surface of cylinder and end plates.
Assemble the motor and check that it is running free. Add two drops of oil
through the air inlet and run the motor at idling speed for 5-10 seconds.

Ergonomic guidelines
Consider your workstation as you read through this list of general ergonomic
guidelines and see if you can identify areas for improvement in posture, compo-
nent placement, or work environment.
• Take frequent breaks and change work positions frequently.
• Adapt the workstation area to your needs and the work task.
• Adjust for convenient reach range by determining where parts or tools
should be located to avoid static load.
• Use workstation equipment such as tables and chairs appropriate for the
work task.
• Avoid work positions above shoulder level or with static holding during as-
sembly operations.
• When working above shoulder level, reduce the load on the static mus-
cles by reducing the weight of the tool, using for example torque arms,
hose reels or weight balancers. You can also reduce the load on the static
muscles by holding the tool close to the body.
• Make sure to take frequent breaks.
• Avoid extreme arm or wrist postures, particularly for operations requir-
ing a degree of force.

G2588-230-M14 EN Safety and operating instructions
© Atlas Copco Industrial Technique AB - 9836 988900 00 13
• Adjust for convenient field of vision by minimizing movement of the eyes
and head during the work task.
• Use the appropriate lighting for the work task.
• Select the appropriate tool for the work task.
• Use ear protection equipment in noisy environments.
• Use high-quality inserted tools or consumables to minimize exposure to ex-
cessive levels of vibration.
• Minimize exposure to reaction forces.
• When cutting:
A cut-off wheel can get stuck if the wheel is either bent or if it is not
guided properly. Make sure to use the correct flanges for cut-off wheels
and avoid bending the wheel during cut-off operation.
• When drilling:
The drill might stall when the drill bit breaks through. Makes sure you
use support handles if the stall torque is too high. The safety standard
ISO11148 part 3 recommends using something to absorb the reaction
torque above 10 Nm for pistol grip tools and 4 Nm for straight tools.
• When using direct-driven screw or nutrunners:
Reaction forces depend on tool setting and joint characteristics. The abil-
ity to bear reaction forces depends on the operator’s strength and pos-
ture. Adapt the torque setting to the operator's strength and posture and
use a torque arm or reaction bar if the torque is too high.
• Use dust extraction system or mouth protection mask in dusty environments.

vidual work places may be higher. The actual exposure values and risk of harm
experienced by an individual user are unique and depend upon the way the user
works, the workpiece and the workstation design, as well upon the exposure
time and the physical condition of the user.
We, Atlas Copco Industrial Technique AB, cannot be held liable for the con-
sequences of using the declared values, instead of values reflecting the actual
exposure, in an individual risk assessment in a work place situation over which
we have no control.
This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is not adequately
managed. An EU guide to managing hand-arm vibration can be found by ac-
cessing http://www.pneurop.eu/index.php and selecting 'Tools' then 'Legisla-
tion'.
We recommend a programme of health surveillance to detect early symptoms
which may relate to noise or vibration exposure, so that management proce-
dures can be modified to help prevent future impairment.
