Using the Milwaukee 2686-20 Cut-Off Grinder is easy. First, make sure you attach the right guard for your job. You can do this quickly with the tool-free guard adjustment feature. Then, connect an M18™ battery. The paddle switch is designed for comfort, so hold the grinder in a way that feels good to you and press the switch to start. When using it, always wear safety gear like goggles and gloves. Keep a firm grip on the side handle to maintain control, especially during kickback situations. The grinder has an electronic clutch for this purpose. Don't overload the tool. If it starts to heat up or seems to be struggling, stop and let it cool down. This is because of the overload protection feature, which helps the motor last longer. After use, clean the grinder. Wipe off any dust or debris. Store it in a dry place. And remember, use common grinding accessories that fit the 5/8"-11 spindle. With proper use and care, this grinder will serve you well for a long time.
