IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT GUARDS (FIG. 8)
Guards must be used with all grinding
wheels, sanding flap discs, wire brushes
and wire wheels. The tool may be used
without a guard only when sanding with
conventional sanding discs. D
models D28493, D28494, D28474, D28499
are provided with a guard intended for use
with depressed center wheels (Type 27),
and hubbed grinding wheels (Type 27). The
same guard is designed for use with sanding
flap discs, wire brushes and wire wheels.
Grinding and cutting with wheels other than
Type 27 and 29 require different accessory guards not included with
the tool. Mounting instructions for these accessory guards are
included in the accessory package.
