Adjusting the Wheel Guard
The wheel guards can be adjusted for maximum safety during grinding operations.
To adjust the guard:
1.Remove the wheel and both flanges.
2.Loosen the three Phillips head screws in the guard plate.
3.Rotate wheel guard to the desired position and retighten the screws loos- ened in Step 2.
Note: The mounting hardware for Model T10493 and Models T10494 and T10495 are different. For Model T10493, ensure that the guard plate clip is seated in one of the five posi- tion holes on the wheel guard, as shown in Figure 4.

Always consider the position of the wheel guard when installing the handle. NEVER operate the grinder with the handle installed toward the open face of the guard. This could lead to injury.
