installed.

Adjusting, removing & installing the wheel guards
WARNING:
The correct guard MUST be installed for each application before use. This is a legal
requirement.
WARNING:
NEVER install a cutting disc or super abrasive cutting wheel without the correct
cutting wheel guard in place.
IMPORTANT:
Ensure the Guard is positioned to provide a barrier between the disc and the operator.
Adjusting the grinding guard
Note:
The Grinding Guard (11) can be moved through a range of approximately 90° so it can be
placed between the disc and the operator at any required work angle.
1. Loosen the Grinding Guard Screw (2)
2. Adjust the Grinding Guard so the guard will protect the operator from the disc when the tool
is in use
3. Tighten the Grinding Guard Screw
Removing the guard

Pin Spanner (12) to remove the Threaded Flange (5) and remove the Disc (1)

Guard are aligned with the notches on the gear housing (Image B), and remove the Guard

Fitting a grinding or cutting disc
IMPORTANT:
Ensure the correct Cutting or Grinding Guard is installed.

Note:
If using depressed centre discs, ensure that the depression is positioned towards the Inner
Flange.
