Installing or removing depressed
center wheel or flap disc
Optional accessory
WARNING:
When using a depressed center
wheel or flap disc, the wheel guard must be fitted
on the tool so that the closed side of the guard
always points toward the operator.
WARNING:
Make sure that the mounting part
of the inner flange fits into the inner diameter of
the depressed center wheel / flap disc perfectly.
Mounting the inner flange on the wrong side may
result in the dangerous vibration.
WARNING:
Be sure to tighten the lock nut
with the lock nut wrench while pressing the shaft
lock.
Mount the inner flange onto the spindle.
Make sure to fit the dented part of the inner flange onto
the straight part at the bottom of the spindle.
Fit the depressed center wheel / flap disc on the inner
flange and screw the lock nut onto the spindle.

When using the depressed center wheel or flap disc 4
mm (5/32") or thicker, mount the lock nut with its pro
-
trusion facing downward to fit inside the center of the
wheel as shown in the figure.
When using the depressed center wheel or flap disc

WARNING:
If the lock nut is mounted with its
protrusion downward into the depressed center wheel
or flap disc thinner than 4 mm (5/32”), the wheel may
rotate because the lock nut cannot hold the wheel
due to the height of protrusion.
To tighten the lock nut, press the shaft lock firmly so
that the spindle cannot revolve, then use the lock nut
wrench and securely tighten clockwise.
