NOTE: Using a metal object, like a screwdriver,
is not recommended as it may damage the
grinding wheel.
5. Remove the hex nut (8), the wheel flange (9)
and the wheel (10).
NOTE: The nut on the right side of the grinder
has a standard right-hand thread (turn coun-
terclockwise to loosen). The one on the left
side has a left-hand thread (turn clockwise to
loosen). Both wheel nuts tighten when turn-
ing toward the rear of the grinder and loosen
when turning toward the front of the grinder.
6. Inspect the wheel (10) for cracks, chips or
any other visible damage (other than normal
wear) and discard if such damage is found. In-
spect the blotter/ cardboard disc for damage. If
the blotter is missing or severely damaged, re-
place it with a piece of thin cardboard or blot-
ter paper cut in the same shape. NEVER USE A
GRINDING WHEEL WITHOUT A BLOTTER.
7. Install the new wheel or other accessory.
Make sure both wheel flanges (9) are in place
with the concave sides toward wheels.
8. Place a wood wedge (7) (not supplied) be-
tween the wheel and the wheel cover.
NOTE: Do not overtighten the nut as this can
crack the grinding wheel (10).
9. Replace the wheel cover and screws.
10. Adjust the tool rest to 1/8 in. (3.2 mm) away
from the wheel and tighten securely.
11. Reattach and adjust the eye shield to a
point between your eyes and the wheel.
12. Set the spark guard 1/16 in. (1.6 mm) away
from the wheel.
