ASSEMBLY

Fig. 3a

Fig. 3b

To install optional flap disc (sold separately): Place
the flap disc over the spindle. Thread the clamp nut

on the spindle with the flat side of the nut facing up.
Fit the raised, small diameter portion of the clamp
nut

into the hole in the wheel and finger tighten.

WARNING:

Always install a grinding wheel with the depressed
center against the flange. Failure to do so will
cause the grinding wheel to crack when tightening
the clamp nut

. This could result in serious personal

injury because of loose particles breaking off and
being thrown from the grinder. Do not overtighten.

�n Depress the spindle lock button and rotate the wheel

clockwise until the spindle locks in position.

�n Tighten the clamp nut

securely with the wrench

provided. Do not overtighten.
