Disc:
Clean disc surface of aluminum drive wheel.
If replacing an abrasive, clean old adhesive from
drive wheel with a solvent. Peel off backing and
apply new abrasive (A), centering it on drive wheel.
Belt:
Push contact wheel backward (B) and
engage catch (C) to lock in place. Install belt,
making sure directional arrows printed on back of
belt match direction of belt movement. Pull catch
(C) upward to tension belt.
If belt has a lap joint, make sure belt is oriented

Electrical connections
Electrical connections should
be made by a qualified electrician in
compliance with all relevant codes. This tool
must be properly grounded.
The IBGM-8
Grinder with Multi Tool is prewired for
115V power, and is supplied with a plug designed
for use on a circuit with a grounded outlet that
looks like the one pictured in A, Figure 6-1. The
grinder may be converted to 230V power, see
sect.
7.3.
Before connecting to power source, be sure switch
is in
off
position.
It is recommended that the grinder be connected to
a 15 amp circuit with circuit breaker or time-delay
fuse marked “D”.
Local codes take precedence
over recommendations.

Grounding instructions
1. All Grounded, Cord-connected Tools:
This tool must be grounded. In the event of a
malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a
path of least resistance for electric current to
reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is
equipped with an electric cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not fit the
outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The
conductor with insulation having an outer surface
that is green with or without yellow stripes is the
equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or
replacement of the electric cord or plug is
necessary, do not connect the equipment-
grounding conductor to a live terminal.
Check with a qualified
electrician or service pe
r
sonnel if the
grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if in doubt as to whether the
tool is properly grounded. Failure to comply
may cause serious or fatal injury.
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept
the tool's plug.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cord
immediately.
2. Grounded, cord-connected tools intended for
use on a supply circuit having a nominal rating
less
than 150
volts:
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an
outlet that looks like the one illustrated in
A,
Figure
6-1. An adapter, shown in
B
and
C
, may be used to
connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown
in
B
if a properly grounded outlet is not available.
The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet can be installed by a
qualified electrician.
This adapter is not permitted
