MOUNTING CUTTING WHEELS
A CAUTION: Matching diameter backing flange and threaded clamp
nut (included with tool) must be used for cutting wheels.
1. Place the unthreaded backing flange on spindle with the raised
section (pilot) facing up. The raised section (pilot) on the backing
flange will be against the wheel when the wheel is installed.
2. Place the wheel on the quick-change backing flange, centering
the wheel on the raised section (pilot).
3. Install the threaded clamp nut with the raised section (pilot) facing
away from the wheel.
4. Depress the spindle lock button and tighten clamp nut with a
wrench.
5. To remove the wheel, grasp and turn while depressing the spindle
lock button.
USING CUTTING WHEELS (FIG. 20)
A WARNING: Do not use edge grinding/cutting FIG.20
wheels for surface grinding applications because
these wheels are not designed for side pressures
encountered with surface grinding. Wheel .......
breakage and injury may result.
1. Allow tool to reach full speed before touching
tool to work surface.
2. Apply minimum pressure to work surface,
allowing tool to operate at high speed.
Cutting rate is greatest when the tool [ ]
operates at high speed.
3. Once a cut is begun and a notch is established in the workpiece,
do not change the angle of the cut. Changing the angle will cause
the wheel to bend and may cause wheel breakage.
4. Remove the tool from work surface before turning tool off. Allow
the tool to stop rotating before setting it down.

and disconnect ff from power source before installing and
removing accessories, before adjusting or when making
repairs. Before reconnecting the tool, depress and release the

up can cause injury.
