ASSEMBLY
INSTALLING A GRINDING WHEEL
(NOT INCLUDED) (FIG.2)
WARNING.
Failure to unplug your grinder
could result in accidental starting causing
serious injury.
Your grinder is shipped with the disc flange and
clamp nut attached to the spindle.
Depress spindle lock button and rotate clamp nut
until spindle locks.
Loosen and remove clamp nut from spindle. Do not
remove disc flange.
Make sure flats on the bottom of disc flange are
engaged with flats on spindle.
Place the grinding wheel over the spindle with the
concave side of the wheel facing up.
WARNING.
Always install grinding wheel
with the depressed center against the
disc flange as shown in Fig 2. Failure to
do so will cause the grinding wheel to
crack when tightening the clamp nut. This
could result in serious personal injury
because of loose particles breaking off
and being thrown from the grinder. Never
use a grinding wheel with a mounting
hole larger than 22.2mm. Do not
overtighten.
Thread the clamp nut on the spindle with the flat
side of the nut facing up. Fit the raised, small
diameter portion of the clamp nut into the hole in
the grinding wheel and finger tighten.
Depress the spindle lock button and rotate the
wheel clockwise until the spindle locks in position.
Securely tighten the clamp nut with the wrench
provided. Do not overtighten.
ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING.
Before connecting your
grinder to power supply, always check to
be sure switch is not in lock-on position.
Failure to do so could result in accidental
starting of your grinder resulting in
possible serious injury.
GUARD LOCATION
The guard on your grinder should be correctly
installed depending on which side the handle is
mounted. Never use your grinder without the guard
correctly in place.
Figures 3, 4, and 5 show correct and incorrect
locations of the guard.
WARNING.
Never place the guard so
that it is on front of the grinder as shown
in figure 5. This could result in serious
injury because sparks and loose particles
thrown from the grinding wheel would be
directed toward the operator. Always
place the guard in the correct location as
shown in figures 3 and 4.
