USING YOUR
ANGLE GRINDER OPERATION
Caution: We highly recommend that when using
abrasive cutting wheels, that a cutting guard should be
tted to your angle grinder. These cutting guards are
available as a spare part and can be ordered though the
special orders desk.
Make sure that a grinding disc is mounted with the label
on top or facing the Angle Grinder.
If you are tting any other kind of attachment, refer to
attachment tment instructions. XU1 tools will not be
responsible for any damage or injury caused due to the
incorrect tment of grinding discs or any other kind of
attachment. Incorrect attachments can cause the motor
to burn out, generally damage the tool or cause injury
Your XU1 100mm Angle Grinder has been designed
to grind all types of material when used in a DIY (Do
It Yourself) context or for hobbyist purposes. It is not
built for continuous daily use in a trade of professional
capacity.
You will need to select the appropriate disc depending
on the type of material you are grinding. Please discuss
replacement discs with your retailer.
When grinding, do not force the Angle Grinder. The
weight of the Angle Grinder itself should provide all the
force that is required.
If the tool slows signicantly, lift it away from the surface
to allow it to regain speed. Continuous use at lower
speeds will result in permanent damage to your tool.
1. Inspect the grinding disc before tting and during use
to ensure it is not deformed or cracked.
2. Ensure that the guard is tted in a position which
ensures it is between you and the grinding disc.
The guard is there to protect you from ying objects
that may be dislodged at the work piece and from
accidental contact of your hand, nders or other part
of your body with the disc.
3. Do not t or use a grinding disc for cutting
applications. Grinding discs should be used for
grinding metal only.
4. The grinding disc provided is not solid. It is made
from grit which is bonded together with reinforcement
and adhesives. It is always possible that a part of the
disc can dislodge and y away from the tool at high
speed. This is why you must wear the appropriate
safety equipment (glasses, gloves and protective
clothing) and follow all safety instructions detailed in
this manual.
5. Do not use any kind of attachment (discs or
otherwise) that has a diameter greater than 100mm)
6. Depress the spindle lock button at the top of the gear
box housing and rotate the spindle until it locks in
position.
7. Once the spindle is locked, use the pin wrench
supplied to loosen the outer ange. FIG. B
8. Hold the Angle Grinder with the spindle facing
upwards and make sure that the inner ange is on
the spindle and located correctly.
The two machined at sections on one side of the
inner ange must face the Angle Grinder and located
in the appropriate position on the spindle.
9. Insert the grinding disc onto the Angle Grinder
spindle with the disc label facing the Angle Grinder.
The hole in the disc should be located onto the
spindle. Ensure that the hole in the disc locates and
ts rmly into the ring section of the inner ange.
10. Screw the outer ange onto the spindle with the
protruding ring section facing the Angle Grinder. This
ring section must locate with the hole in the grinding
disc. FIG. C
11. Tighten the other ange by locking the spindle and
tighten with the pin wrench provided.
12. To remove the disc, rst lock the spindle and loosen
the outer ange with the pin wrench. Thereafter,
remove the outer ange and the grinding disc.
13. Regularly check that the outer ange has not
loosened during use.
A guard should be used at all times whilst operating
the angle grinder.
Note: The grinding disc must be removed before tting
the safety guard.
1. Loosen the screw on the safety guard.

Read instruction manual
The electric motor has been designed for 230-240V
only. Always check that the power supply corresponds
to the voltage on the rating plate.
Always use an approved extension lead suitable for the power
input of this tool. Before use, inspect the extension lead for
signs of damage, wear and ageing. Replace the extension
lead if damaged or defective.
When using an extension lead on a reel, always unwind the
lead completely. Use of an extension lead not suitable for the
power input of the tool or which is damaged or defective may
result in a risk of re and electric shock.
The power supply for this product should be protected by a
residual current device (rated at 30mA or less). A residual
current device reduces the risk of electric shock.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualied persons
in order to avoid a hazard.
This tool is double insulated therefore no earth
wire is required.
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and
dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
ammable 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.
Unmodied 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 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. Personal 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
nger on the switch or energising power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
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) 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 drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of inattention while operating

Additional safety instructions for
grinding, sanding, and abrasive
cutting-off operations
a) This power tool is intended to function as a
grinder or cut-off tool. Read all safety warnings,
instructions, illustrations and specications
provided with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may
result in electric shock, r and/or serious injury.
b) Operations such as sanding, wire brushing, or
polishing are not recommended to be performed
with this power tool. Operations for which the power
tool was not designed may create a hazard and cause
personal injury.
c) Do not use accessories which are not
specically designed and recommended by the
tool manufacturer. Just because the accessory can
be attached to your power tool, it does not assure safe
operation.
d) 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 y apart
e) The outside diameter and the thickness of your
accessory must be within the capacity rating of
your power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories cannot
be adequately guarded or controlled.
f) Threaded mounting of accessories must match
the grinder spindle thread. For accessories
mounted by anges, the arbour hole of the
accessory must t the locating diameter of the
ange. Accessories that do not match the mounting
hardware of the power tool will run out of balance,
vibrate excessively and may cause loss of control.
g) Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each
use inspect the accessory such as abrasive wheels
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.
h) 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 work piece
fragments. The eye protection must be capable of
stopping ying debris generated by various operations
. The dust mask or respirator must be capable of
ltrating particles generated by your operation.
Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may cause
hearing loss.
i) 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 y away and
cause injury beyond immediate area of operation.
j) 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.
k) 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.
l) 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.
m) 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.
n) Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents. The
motor’s fan will draw the dust inside the housing and
excessive accumulation of powdered metal may cause
electrical hazards.
o) Do not operate the power tool near ammable
materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.
p) Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants.
Using water or other liquid coolants may result in
electrocution or shock.
Kickback and related warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged
rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or any other
accessory. Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling
of the rotating accessory which in turn causes the
uncontrolled power tool to be forced in the direction
opposite of the accessory’s rotation at the point of the
binding.
For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or
pinched by the work piece, the edge of the wheel that
is entering into the pinch point can dig into the surface
of the material causing the wheel to climb out or kick
out. The wheel may either jump toward or away from
the operator, depending on direction of the wheel’s
movement at the point of pinching. Abrasive wheels
may also break under these conditions. Kickback is the
result of power tool misuse and/or incorrect operating
procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking
proper precautions as given below.
a)Maintain a rm grip on the power tool and
position your body and arm to allow you to resist
kickback forces. Always use auxiliary handle, if
provided, for maximum control over kickback or
torque reaction during start-up. The operator can
control torque reactions or kickback forces, if proper
precautions are taken.
b) Never place your hand near the rotating
accessory. Accessory may kickback over your hand.
c) Do not position your body in the area where
power tool will move if kickback occurs. Kickback
will propel the tool in direction opposite to the wheel’s
movement at the point of snagging.
d) Use special care when working corners,
sharp edges etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the
accessory. Corners, sharp edges or bouncing have a
tendency to snag the rotating accessory and cause
loss of control or kickback.
e) Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade
or toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent
kickback and loss of control.
Additional safety instructions for
grinding and abrasive cutting-off
operations
e) Always use undamaged wheel anges that are
of correct size and shape for your selected wheel.
Proper wheel anges support the wheel thus reducing
the possibility of wheel breakage. Flanges for cut-off
wheels may be different from grinding wheel anges.
f) 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.
Additional safety instructions for
abrasive cutting-off operations
a) Do not “jam” the cut-off wheel or apply
excessive pressure. Do not attempt to make an
excessive depth of cut. Overstressing the wheel
increases the loading and susceptibility to twisting or
binding of the wheel in the cut and the possibility of
kickback or wheel breakage.
b) Do not position your body in line with and
behind the rotating wheel. When the wheel, at the
point of operation, is moving away from your body, the
possible kickback may propel the spinning wheel and
the power tool directly at you.
c) When wheel is binding or when interrupting a
cut for any reason, switch off the power tool and
hold the power tool motionless until the wheel
comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove
the cut-off wheel from the cut while the wheel is in
motion otherwise kickback may occur. Investigate and
take corrective action to eliminate the cause of wheel
binding.
d) Do not restart the cutting operation in the work
piece. Let the wheel reach full speed and carefully
reenter the cut. The wheel may bind, walk up or
kickback if the power tool is restarted in the work
piece.
e) Support panels or any oversized work piece to
minimize the risk of wheel pinching and kickback.
Large work pieces tend to sag under their own weight.
Supports must be placed under the work piece near
the line of cut and near the edge of the work piece on
both sides of the wheel.
f) Use extra caution when making a “pocket
cut” into existing walls or other blind areas. The
protruding wheel may cut gas or water pipes,electrical
wiring or objects that can cause kickback.
Additional safety instructions for
sanding operations
a) Do not use excessively oversized sanding disc
paper. Follow manufacturers recommendations,
when selecting sanding paper. Large sanding paper
extending beyond the sanding pad presents a
laceration hazard and may cause snagging, tearing of
the disc or kickback.
The tool is recommended for use with a residual
current device with a rated residual current of
30mA or less
Cutting guard (not supplied) should be tted to
your angel grinder if it is used with an abrasive
cutting wheel
a) Use only wheel types that are recommended for
your power tool and the specic guard designed
for the selected wheel. Wheels for which the power
tool was not designed cannot be adequately guarded
and are unsafe.
b) The grinding surface of centre depressed
wheels must be mounted below the plane of
the guard lip. An improperly mounted wheel that
projects through the plane of the guard lip cannot be
adequately protected.
c) 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.
d) 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.

It is important to understand the functions of the various
controls. Please see below how and when to use the on/
off switch, speed control, speed pre-selector, forward/
reverse control and the drill / hammer selector.
Familiarise yourself with these controls before rst use
of your new drill.
On/off switch
1. Turn the drill on by depressing the trigger. FIG. C
To turn the tool off, release the trigger switch.
2. The tool can be locked on by rst depressing the
trigger switch and then pressing the lock-on button
3. Once the lock-on button has been engaged the
switch will remain locked on.
4. To turn the tool off, press and release the trigger
switch.
Speed control
1. The speed can be varied according to the pressure
applied to the trigger switch. The harder you squeeze,
the faster the rotation from zero up to a preset
maximum.
Forward/reverse lever
1. The direction of rotation of the chuck is controlled by
the forward/reverse lever located above the trigger
switch. FIG. D
2. For forward rotation: move the lever to the left
3. For reverse rotation: move the lever to the right
Note: Do not change the direction of rotation while the
chuck is still in motion.
Adjusting between hammer and
drill mode of operation
1. Move the mode selector to the left (hammer icon) to
select the hammer mode FIG. E
2. Move the mode selector to the right (drill bit icon) to
select the drill mode.
Note: When drilling in hammer mode, carbide tipped
drill bits should be used and the drill must be set to
rotate in the forward rotation.
Inserting a bit
1. Disconnect the drill from the mains supply.
2. Twist the chuck sleeve to open the jaws slightly larger
than the diameter of the bit you are inserting
3. Insert the drill bit up to its utes making sure it is
centred in the jaws.
4. Tighten the chuck by turning the chuck sleeve
FIG. F
5. Once the jaws have clamped evenly around the drill
bit, use the chuck key to tighten the chuck securely.
6. Always tighten the chuck using all three holes. This
will ensure a rm grip on the accessory.
7. Occasionally check the tightness of the chuck during
drilling as it may vibrate loose.
8. Reconnect the drill to the supply, switch on and check
that the bit runs true and does not wobble indicating
that it is not sitting square. Adjust if necessary after
again disconnecting the tool from the power supply.
Removing a bit
1. Disconnect the drill from the power supply
2. Use the chuck key to loosen the chuck
3. Remove the bit
Note. Use gloves to handle drill bits and other sharp
accessories. Also be aware that drill bits can be very hot
after even a short period of use.
Drilling in all materials
1. Always use sharp drill bits
2. Mark the place where the hole is to be drilled
3. Commence with a slow speed to start the hole then
increase the speed once the hole has been started
4. Reduce your pressure on the tool when the drill bit is
about to break though the material.
Drilling in metal
1. Move the mode selector to the right (drill bit icon) to
select the drill mode.
2. Support thin material on a scrap piece of wood
3. Use a punch to mark the position of the hole. Careful
use of the variable speed feature allows you to start
holes without centre punching. Operate the drill at a
low speed until you start the hole.
4. If drilling a large hole use a small drill bit at rst to
establish a pilot hole then use the required large
sized drill bit.
5. Use only HSS (High speed steel) drill bits or those
recommended for metal use.
6. When drilling into iron or steel, use a cooling
lubricant such as thin oil
7. With aluminium, use turpentine or parafn
8. With brass, copper and cast iron, use no lubricant but
withdraw the drill regularly to assist cooling.

1. Your tool has been designed to operate over a long
period of time with a minimum of maintenance.
2. Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon
proper tool care and regular cleaning.
3. When not in use the drill should be stored in a dry,
frost-free location not within the reach of children.
4. Keep ventilation slots of the drill clean at all times and
prevent any foreign matter from entering.
5. If the housing of the drill requires cleaning do not use
solvents but a moist soft cloth only.
Note: Ozito Industries will not be responsible for any
damage or injuries caused by repair of the tool by an
unauthorised person or by mishandling of the tool.
If the supply cord of this power tool is damaged,
