Removing & Installing Grinding Wheels

If installing a grinding wheel for the first time, or when replacing a worn wheel, this section explains the order in which this process must take place. Every time a grinding wheel is removed from its hub, this procedure must be repeated. If installing a new wheel right out of the box, the ring (Page 23) test must also still be completed.

To remove and install a grinding wheel:

1.DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!

2.Place a sheet of plywood or similar on top of the table (see Figure 21), and open the grinding wheel cover.

4.Using the wrenches, loosen the retaining nut in the direction shown in Figure 23.
