ASSEMBLY/ADJUSTMENTS (cont.)
WARNING!
Removing the adjustable safety guard (6) is a serious safety
concern, this action will also void your warrany.
•
Depress the spindle lock button (1) at the top of the alloy gear case (2); rotate the
spindle (or disc if attached) to locate the lock position. Once the spindle is locked and
cannot be rotated, use the pin spanner (9) supplied to loosen the outer flange (10).
CAUTION:
Always wait until the disc or attachment has stopped rotating before
pressing the spindle lock button (1). Pressing the spindle lock button (1) will cause
damage to the spindle lock mechanism which will not be covered under warranty.
Assembling a Grinding Disc
•
Holding the angle grinder with
the spindle facing upwards,
ensure the inner flange (11) is
on the spindle and located
correctly. The two machined flat
sections on one side of the
inner flange (11) must face the
angle grinder and locate in the
appropriate position on the
spindle (11)(Fig.1).
•
Insert the hole in the 125mm grinding disc (7) over the angle grinder spindle with
the 125mm grinding disc (7) label facing the angle grinder. The hole in the grinding
disc (7) should be located over the spindle. Ensure the hole in the 125mm grinding
disc (7) locates and fits firmly into the ring section of the inner flange (11)(Fig.1A).
•
Screw the outer flange (10) onto the spindle with the protruding ring section facing
the 125mm grinding disc (7). This ring section must locate with the hole in the
125mm grinding disc (7)(Fig.1B).
•
Tighten the outer flange (10) by depressing the spindle lock button (1) and then
tightening the outer flange (10) with the pin spanner (9) provided.
•
Removal of the 125mm grinding disc (7) is conducted in reverse order to the above.
•
Regularly check that the outer flange (10) has not loosened during use.
Assembling a Diamond Wheel
•
Holding the angle grinder with
the spindle facing upwards,
ensure the inner flange (11) is
on the spindle and located
correctly. The two machined flat
sections on one side of the
inner flange (11) must face the
angle grinder and locate in the
appropriate position on the
spindle (11)(Fig.2).
