injury, or may cause machine damage.
NOTE emphasizes essential information.
SAFETY
GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING:
Read all instructions
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
The term “power tool” in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool
or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite
the dust of 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.
Unmodified 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.
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 you are tired
or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication.
A moment of inattention while operating
power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
01Eng_G14DL_US 3/30/07, 18:223
English
4
b) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye
protection.
Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
c) Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch
is in the off position before plugging in.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the
switch or plugging in 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 these devices 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 toll
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) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc., in accordance with these instructions
and in the manner intended for the particular
type of power tool, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be
performed.
Use of the power tool for operations different
from intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
5) Battery tool use and care
a) Ensure the switch is in the off position before
inserting battery pack.
Inserting the battery pack into power tools
that have the switch on invites accidents.
b) Recharge only with the charger specified by
the manufacturer.
A charger that is suitable for one type of
battery pack may create a risk of fire when
used with another battery pack.
c) Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs.
Use of any other battery packs may create a
risk of injury and fire.
d) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects like paper clips,
coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small
metal objects that can make a connection
from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may
cause burns or a fire.
e) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery, avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, flush with water.
If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery
may cause irritation or burns.
6) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical
replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
–WARNING–
To reduce the risk of injury, user must read

NOTE:
Charging times may be longer depending on the
surrounding temperature and battery conditions.
Charge time lamp indications are only a guide, and
may vary depending on the surrounding
temperature and battery conditions.
Remove the battery from the charger when not in
use.
Regarding electric discharge in case of new
batteries, etc.
As the internal chemical substance of new batteries
and batteries that have not been used for an
extended period is not activated, the electric
discharge might be low when using them the first
and second time. This is a temporary
phenomenon, and normal time required for
recharging will be restored by recharging the
batteries 2 – 3 times.
How to make the batteries perform longer.
Recharge the batteries before they become
completely exhausted.
When you feel that the power of the tool becomes
weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its
battery. If you continue to use the tool and exhaust
the electric current, the battery may be damaged
and its life will become shorter.
Avoid recharging at high temperatures.
A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately
after use. If such a battery is recharged immediately
after use, its internal chemical substance will
deteriorate, and the battery life will be shortened.
Leave the battery and recharge it after it has cooled
for a while.
PRIOR TO OPERATION
1. Power switch
Ensure that the switch is in the OFF position.
2. Check your work environment
Ensure the following before operation:
No flammable gas, liquid, or object at
worksite.
When grinding thin steel sheet it may cause
a high booming noise.
To avoid such noise, place a rubber mat under
the workpiece.
Clear the area of children or unauthorized
personnel.
3. Mounting the wheel guard
Be sure to mount the wheel guard at an angle that
will protect the operator’s body from injury by a
broken wheel piece.
[Installing Wheel Guard]
Slightly loosen the screw on the wheel guard.
Install the wheel guard to the packing gland,
turn it to the angle suitable for operation, and
make adjustment.
After the adjustment, ensure that the screw
is securely tightened on the wheel guard in
order to fix it completely.
WARNING:
If the wheel guard is not attached properly, a
broken wheel may result in and cause death or
serious injury.
4. Thoroughly check that the depressed center wheel
is free of cracks, splits and other abnomalities
before mounting. Make sure it is firmly clamped
and has been properly mounted. Refer to page 15
of this manual for Depressed Center Wheel
Assembly and Disassembly
5. Test the grinder before using.
Before actually beginning the grinding work, test
the grinder by first clearing the area of all other
personnel. Make sure the wheel guard is in place
and that you are wearing eye protection. Turn the
grinder “on”, and make sure the grinder runs
smoothly and shows no abnormalities.
Duration of the trial run is as follows:
When depressed center wheel
is replaced ............................... 3 minutes or
more
When starting daily work ...... 1 minute or
more
6. Use only properly rated depressed center wheels.
Use only depressed center wheels rated at 13,300
RPM or more.

GRINDER OPERATION
CAUTION:
To extend the lifetime, the lithium-ion battery
equips with the protection function to stop the
output. Therefore, if the tool is overloaded, the
motor may stop. However, this is not the trouble
but the result of protection function. In this case,
release the switch of tool and eliminate the causes
of overloading.
NOTE:
To prevent injuries, this product has a function that
prevents unexpected motor rotation when the
battery is inserted. The motor will not run if the
battery is inserter while the switch is still ON. After
installing the battery, turn the switch off and then
back on again.
The G14DL and G18DL models are equipped with
a protection function that will shut down the tool
in the event of an overload.
Should the tool shut down due to an overload, turn
the power off and then turn it back on again.
An overload that stops tool operation and lasts
more than 10 seconds may not be released by
turning the power off and on. Should this happen,
remove the battery from the tool and reinstall it
before turning on the power switch.
1. Hold the grinder firmly by its housing and side
handle (Fig. 1).
The grinder produces a counterforce which must
be controlled by firmly holding onto the grinder.
2. Turn the grinder “on”. (Fig. 6)
While holding the grinder firmly, use one finger to
slide the switch to the “on” position.
3. Use light grinding pressure.
There is no need to press hard when grinding.
Usually the grinder’s own weight is sufficient to
allow the required light contact with the surface to
be ground.
WARNING:
Do not press the grinder forcibly against the
surface to be ground. Heavy pressure can result
in wheel breakage and serious injury. It can also
damage the surface being ground or damage the
grinder’s motor.
4. Use proper grinding angle.
Grind only with the wheel’s edge by lifting the
grinder 15° to 30°, as shown in Fig. 7.
CAUTION:
Do not use the entire surface of the depressed
center wheel. Use only the edge of the depressed
center wheel.
5. Move the grinder in the proper direction.
When using a new depressed center wheel in
direction A (Fig. 7), the wheel edge may cut into the
workpiece. In this case, grind in direction B (Fig. 7).
Once the wheel edge is worn, the workpiece can
be ground in both directions.
NOTE:
The wheel provided (resinoid wheel) is rated as
Class A grain and # 36 grain size. It is most suitable
for heavy grinding of steel and other types of
materials.
6. Adjust operation to desired finish.
For a fine finish, decrease pressure by lifting
slightly. Grind slowly and at the appropriate speed.
CAUTION:
The revolving depressed center wheel will create
air turbulence.
Do no lay the grinder down in areas of dust or dirt
until it has come to a complete stop.
