NEVER install grinding wheel on spindle
without paper or fiber discs between wheel
and flange. Not using discs can put stress
on wheel, causing it to crack and possibly
fall apart.
4. Remove M6-1 hex nut (see Figure 15).
Tip: Hold grinding wheel with free hand to
stop spindle from turning while removing hex
nut.
Note: Spindle on left side of grinder has left-
hand threads. Turn it clockwise to loosen.

5. Remove outer wheel flange and paper disc
(see
Figure 16).
6. Remove grinding wheel and bushing from
spindle (see
Figure 16). Take note of paper
or fiber disc between wheel flanges and
wheel. These cushion the pressure of the
wheel flanges and help distribute pressure
more evenly. They also help reduce damage
to the flanges.
8. Mount new grinding wheel and bushing in
order shown in
Figure 16. Tighten M6-1 hex
nut snugly but do not over-tighten. Over-
tightening can stress and crack wheel.
9. Re-assemble outer wheel guard using hard-
ware removed in
Step 2.
10. While standing away from line of rotation,
turn grinder
ON and run new grinding wheel
for at least 1–2 minutes before standing in
front of it. This helps protect you if the wheel
has internal damage that will cause it to fly
apart from the centrifugal force of rotation.
— If grinder runs smoothly, grinding wheel
may now be used.
— If wheel appears to wobble, grinder
vibrates excessively, or any other unsafe
condition appears with new wheel, stop
grinder and refer to
Troubleshooting on
Page 29.
Warped wheel flanges can contribute to
grinding wheel breaking and flying apart.
Never use warped wheel flanges. Always
check flanges before re-installing grinding
wheel.
7. Verify the flatness of the inner and outer
flanges by placing them on a level surface. If
either flange is warped or damaged, replace
it.
