Mounting Sanding Backing Pads
(Fig. A, E)
nOTE:
Use of a guard with sanding discs that use backing
pads, often called fiber resin discs, is not required. Since a
guard is not required for these accessories, the guard may or
may not fit correctly if used.
WARNING:
Failure to properly seat the clamp nut
and/or pad could result in serious injury (or damage to
the tool or wheel).
WARNING:
Proper guard must be reinstalled for
grinding wheel, sanding flap disc, wire brush or
wire wheel applications after sanding applications
are complete.

Removing guard (Fig. B)
To remove the guard, open the guard latch, rotate the guard
so that the lugs on the guard are aligned with the slots on
the gear case cover, and pull the guard away from the gear
case cover.
nOTE:
The guard is pre-adjusted to the diameter of the gear
case hub at the factory. If, after a period of time, the guard
becomes loose, tighten the adjusting screw 14 with latch
in the closed position and guard installed on the tool.
CAUTION:
Do not tighten the adjusting screw with
the latch in the open position. Undetectable damage
to the guard or the mounting hub may result. If the
guard cannot be tightened by the guard latch, do not
use the tool and take the tool and guard to a service
center to repair or replace the guard.
