ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS/OPERATIONS

5)Using a hammer, strike the wider side of the mounting wedge with controlled, direct blows to firmly seat the multi-accessory attachment into the aluminum disc. Usually one or two direct blows will be sufficient to properly retain the attachment.

CAUTION

Do not apply excessive impact force to the mounting wedge to cause splitting. Once the multi-accessory attachment is seated in the aluminum disc, further impact force on the wedge will not increase the seating force.

CAUTION

Improper seating force created by an excessive blow to the mounting wedge will not allow the attachment to properly release from the aluminum disc if direct contact with a foreign object is made. Such occurrence can result in property damage and/or personal injury. The correct seating force for a specific job application is that which is sufficient to retain the attachment, yet still allows it to release from the aluminum disc when direct contact with a foreign object is made.

6)Determine that the multi-accessory attachment is in full contact with the aluminum disc. If not in proper contact, refer to REMOVING A MULTI- ACCESSORY ATTACHMENT (not including multi-segmented, dry diamond blades) FROM THE COUNTERROTATING DISCS for proper removal procedures.

7)Return the SURFACE GRINDER to its normal operating position.

8)If the SURFACE GRINDER is powered by an engine, reconnect the engine spark plug wire. If powered by an electric motor and the machine is to be used immediately, reconnect the extension cord or SURFACE GRINDER to the power source. Determine that the ON/OFF switch located on the operator handle is in the OFF position.

DANGER

UNEXPECTED MACHINE START UP CAN RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.

REMOVING A MULTI-ACCESSORY ATTACHMENT (not including multi-segmented, dry diamond discs)

FROM THE COUNTERROTATING DISCS.

Application: All Models.

Tools Required:

1 each, Small Hammer

1 each, Drift Punch or small, Pry Bar

DANGER

WHEN REMOVING A MULTI-ACCESSORY ATTACHMENT FROM THE SURFACE GRINDER, ALWAYS WEAR APPROPRIATE SAFETY EYEWEAR AND APPAREL TO MINIMIZE THE POTENTIAL FROM FLYING DEBRIS. FLYING DEBRIS CAN RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.

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

2)Tilt the SURFACE GRINDER back until the operator handle comes in contact with the surface. Follow the instructions for this procedure as outlined

in INSTALLING A MULTI-ACCESSORY ATTACHMENT (not including multi-segmented, dry diamond blades) IN THE COUNTERROTATING DISCS.

3)The multi-accessory attachment can be removed by both the use of a drift punch or small, pry bar. If utilizing the drift punch, strike the narrow end of the mounting wedge with controlled, direct blows until the attachment is released from the aluminum disc. If utilizing the pry bar, position the bar between the aluminum disc and the attachment. Use controlled, direct blows to the bar in order to force the attachment loose from the aluminum disc.
