The Grinding Wheel MUST be:
• rated to at least 6,000 RPM.
• no larger than 99″ (230 mm) in diameter.
• fitted with a 5/8″ round arbor.
• 1/4″ thick or less.
• suitable for surface grinding, not edge grinding.
• dry and clean.
• proven undamaged by inspection and
by the ring-test explained below.
2. Press in and hold the Spindle Lock Button
to prevent the Spindle from turning.
3. Remove the Outer Flange. Keep the
Inner Flange in position on the Spindle.
4. Closely inspect the Grinding Wheel before mounting.
Perform a ring-test on the wheel (unless wheel is
smaller than 4″ or is an unusual shape) as follows:
a. Suspend wheel using a dowel or
finger through the arbor hole.

Tap the flat side of the wheel with a light non-
metallic object, such as a screwdriver handle,
at a point 45° from the vertical center line on
each side of the wheel and 1 – 2 inches from
the edge of the wheel (see Illustration).
c. Rotate the wheel 90° and repeat the test
until the entire wheel has been checked.
d. An undamaged wheel will give a clear tone.
If cracked, there will be a dead sound
and not a clear ring.
5. For wheels with paper gaskets (blotters) or
metal gaskets: Slip the grinding wheel onto the
Spindle with the gasket first. The gasket should be
centered on the grinding wheel and the wheel and
gasket should rest flat against the Inner Flange.
WARNING: To prevent serious
injury, gaskets must be used for all
grinding wheels they are provided with.
Gaskets help prevent grinding wheel damage
and wheel slippage, causes of wheel failure.
6. Thread the Outer Flange onto the Spindle.
Wrench tighten only enough so that the wheel is
securely held on the spindle.
WARNING: To prevent serious injury,
do not overtighten flange. Overtightening can
damage the wheel, causing wheel failure.
