6.Remove the arbor cap screw and outer flange, then place the grinding wheel on the inner flange.

7.Replace the outer flange and arbor cap screw, then tighten the cap screw to approxi- mately 60 inch pounds.

Over-tightening the arbor cap screw could cause the grinding wheel to crack and break apart during operation, which would send flying debris at the operator. DO NOT over- tighten the arbor cap screw. If possible, use a torque wrench to ensure that the cap screw is not tightened more than 60 inch pounds.

8.Replace the wheel and arbor safety guards (see Figure 13).

During operation, sparks and debris are thrown from the wheel and chain. To reduce the risk of operator injury from this mate- rial, ALWAYS make sure the wheel and arbor safety guards are correctly installed before connecting the sharpener to power!
