ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS/OPERATIONS

INSTALLING THE SG24-1000 SAFETY AND DUST SHIELD ASSEMBLY KIT.

Application: All Models.

Tools Required:

1each, 5/32 inch Allen wrench.

1each, 7/16 inch wrench.

2each, 1/2 inch wrenches.

1 each, flat blade screwdriver.

1)If the SURFACE GRINDER is powered by an engine, disconnect the spark plug wire. If powered by an electric motor, properly disconnect the extension cord or SURFACE GRINDER from the power source.

2)Using the allen wrench, remove the bumper guard P/N 29018-016 from the machine.

3)Tilt the SURFACE GRINDER back until the operator handle comes in contact with the surface. The SURFACE GRINDER may not be in a stable position in this configuration. To minimize the possibility of property damage and/or personnel injury, properly secure an appropriate weight to the handle for added stability. Other means can be utilized to support the frame and provide proper machine stability. Appropriate wheel chocks are also recommended. FIGURE 1.

DANGER

EXERCISE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN WORKING NEAR OR UNDER THE SURFACE GRINDER WITH THE OPERATOR HANDLE TILTED BACK IN THE SERVICE POSITION. IF THE SURFACE GRINDER IS NOT POSITIONED IN A STABLE CONFIGURATION, WITH ADEQUATE COUNTERWEIGHT PROPERLY SECURED, UNEXPECTED MOVEMENT CAN ALLOW THE SURFACE GRINDER TO FALL BACK TO THE WORK SURFACE. THE RESULT CAN BE PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.

4)Using the 7/16-inch wrench, install the wrap- around rubber skirt P/N 29018-88 around the outside perimeter surrounding the multi- accessory discs. Secure with cap screws P/N 106499-007 and washers P/N 29018-090. The original bumper and cap screws can also be utilized as an alternative attachment method. The notches in the rubbers skirt are provided as a means to compensate for multi-accessory

attachment wear (if applicable). Adjust the location of the rubber skirt to provide the necessary clearance between it and the work surface. Improper clearance will accelerate skirt wear. FIGURE 2.

5)Using the 1/2-inch wrenches, the rectangular rubber skirt P/N 29018-089 is attached to the middle support member of the main frame. Proper installation will have the hose attach fitting that is riveted to the skirt facing the rear of the machine. The notches in the rubber skirt are provided as a means to compensate for multi- accessory attachment wear (if applicable). Adjust the location of the rubber skirt to provide the same clearance as with the wrap-around rubber skirt P/N 29018-088. The skirt straps PN 29018-092 provide additional support for the rear skirt assembly. Properly secure with the cap screws PN 06500-007 and self-locking nuts P/N 08233-005. FIGURE 3.
