Mounting Wire Cup Brushes and
Wire Wheels
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of personal injury,
wear work gloves when handling wire brushes
and wheels.
They can become sharp.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of damage to the
tool, wheel or brush must not touch guard when
mounted or while in use.
Undetectable damage
could occur to the accessory, causing wires to fragment
from accessory wheel or cup.
Wire cup brushes or wire wheels screw directly on the
grinder spindle without the use of flanges. Use only wire
brushes or wheels provided with a 5/8"‑11 threaded hub.
A Type 27 guard is required when using wire brushes
and wheels.
1. Thread the wheel on the spindle by hand.
2. Depress spindle lock button and use a wrench on the
hub of the wire wheel or brush to tighten the wheel.

or pad could result in serious injury (or damage to the
tool or wheel).
WARNING:
