thread the clamp nut (F) on spindle. If

the wheel you are installing is more than

1/8" (3.31 mm) thick, place the threaded

clamp nut on the spindle so that the

raised section (pilot) fits into the center of

the wheel. If the wheel you are installing

To remove the wheel, depress the spindle

 

lock button and loosen the threaded

 

clamp nut with a wrench.

NOTE: If the wheel spins after the clamp nut is tightened, check the orientation of the threaded clamp nut. If a thin wheel is installed with the pilot on the clamp nut against the wheel, it will spin because the height of the pilot prevents the clamp nut from holding the wheel.

EDGE GRINDING WITH GRINDING WHEELS (FIG. 10)

CAUTION: Wheels used for cutting and FIG. 10 edge grinding may break if they bend or twist

while the tool is being used to do cut-off work

or deep grinding. To reduce the risk of serious injury, limit the use of these wheels with a standard Type 27 guard to shallow cutting and notching (less than 1/2" in depth).

The open side of the guard must be positioned

away from the operator. For deeper cutting with a Type 1 cut-off wheel, use a closed, Type 1 guard. See the chart on page 10 for

more information. Type 1 guards are available at extra cost from your local dealer

or authorized service center.

1.Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool to the work surface.
