6. Installing a wheel
WARNING: USING A WRONG SIZED WHEEL CAN CAUSE WHEEL BREAKAGE AND RESULTING SERIOUS INJURY.
In order to avoid this hazard, refer to the following illustration to determine the proper dimensions(s) of your wheel. Some guidelines:
(a)Dimensionshould always be less than 1/2" (13 mm). Longer lengths can result in excess vibration, wheel breakage, and the chance for serious injury.
(b)When dimension d is 1/4" (6.35 mm), the diameter of the wheel (dimension
D)should be less than 1" (25 mm). NEVER use a longer diameter wheel.
(c)When dimension d is 1/8" (3.175 mm), the diameter of the wheel (dimension
D)should be less than 3/8" (10 mm).
(d)Dimension L varies according to the dimension D. Dimension L can be longer as dimension D increase. Refer to the following table:
(When=1/2’’(13mm))
| d | 1/8’’(3.175mm) |

| 1/4’’(6.35mm) |

D | 3/16’’ | 1/4’’ | 5/16’’ | 3/8’’ | 1/2’’ | 5/8’’ | 3/4’’ | 1’’ | |
(5mm) | (6mm) | (8mm) | (10mm) | (13mm) | (16mm) | (20mm) | (25mm) | ||

L | 1/2’’ | 3/4’’ | 3/4’’ | 3/4’’ | 1’’ | 1’’ | 3/4’’ | ||
(13mm) | (20mm) | (20mm) | (20mm) | (38mm) | (25mm) | (25mm) | (20mm) | ||
