4. Fitting and adjusting the wheel guard
The wheel guard is a protective device to prevent
injury should the depressed center wheel shatter
during operation. Ensure that the guard is properly
fitted and fastened before commencing grinding
operation. By slightly loosening the setting screw,
the wheel guard can be turned and set at any
desired angle for
effectiveness. Ensure that the setting screw is
thoroughly tightened after adjusting the wheel guard.
5. Ensure that mounted wheels and points are fitted
in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
Ensure that the depressed center wheel to be utilized
is the correct type and free of cracks or surface
defects. Also ensure that the depressed center wheel
is properly mounted and the wheel nut is securely
tightened, Refer to the section on "Depressed Center
Wheel Assembly"
Ensure that blotters are used when they are provided
with the bonded abrasive product and when they
are required.
Do not use separate reducing bushings or adaptors
to adapt large hole abrasive wheels.
For tools intended to be fitted with threaded hole
wheel, ensure that the thread in the wheel is long
enough to accept the spindle length.
Do not use cutting off wheel for side grinding.
6. Conducting a trial run
Ensure that the abrasive products is correctly
mounted and tightened before use and run the tool
at no-load for 30 seconds in a safe position, stop
immediately if there is considerable vibration or if
other defects are detected.
If this condition occurs, check the machine to
determine the cause.
7. Confirm the push button.
Confirm that the push button is disengaged by
pushing push button two or three times before
switching the power tool on (See Fig. 1).
8. Fixing the side handle.
Screw the side handle into the gear cover.
PRACTICAL GRINDER APPLICATION
1. Pressure
To prolong the life of the machine and ensure a
first class finish, it is important that the machine
should not be overloaded by applying too much
pressure. In most applications, the weight of the
machine alone is sufficient for effective grinding.
Too much pressure will result in reduced rotational
speed, inferior surface finish, and overloading which
could reduce the life of the machine.
2. Grinding angle
Do not apply the entire surface of the depressed
center wheel to the material to be ground. As
shown in Fig. 2, the machine should be held at an
angle of 15° – 30° so that the external edge of the
depressed center wheel contacts the material at an
optimum angle.
3. To prevent a new depressed center wheel from
digging into the workpiece, initial grinding should
be performed by drawing the grinder across the
workpiece toward the operator (Fig. 2 direction B).
Once the leading edge of the depressed center
wheel is properly abraded, grinding may be
conducted in either direction.

4. Precautions immediately after finishing operation
The wheel continues to rotate after the tool is
switched off.
After switching off the machine, do not put it down
until the depressed center wheel has come to a
complete stop. Apart from avoiding serious
accidents, this precaution will reduce the amount
of dust and swarf sucked into the machine.
CAUTIONS
Check that the work piece is properly supported.
Ensure that ventilation openings are kept clear when
working in dusty conditions.
If it should become necessary to clear dust, first
disconnect the tool from the mains supply (use non-
metallic objects) and avoid damaging internal parts.
Ensure that sparks resulting from use do not create
a hazard e.g. do not hit persons, or ignite flammable
substances.
Always use protective safety glasses and hearing
protectors, use other personal protective equipment
such as gloves, apron and helmet when necessary.
Always use eye and ear protection.
Other personal protective equipment such as dust
mask, gloves, helmet and apron should be worn
when necessary.
If in doubt, wear the protective equipment.
When the machine is not use, the power source
should be disconnected.
ASSEMBLING AND DISASSEMBLING THE
DEPRESSED CENTER WHEEL (Fig. 1)
CAUTION: Be sure to switch OFF and disconnect the
attachment plug from the receptacle to avoid
a serious accident.
1. Assembling (Fig. 1)
(1) Turn the equipment upsidedown so that the spindle
will be facing up.
(2) Mount the wheel washer onto the spindle.
(3) Fit the protuberance of the depressed center wheel
onto the wheel washer.
(4) Screw from above the wheel nut onto the spindle.
(5) As shown in Fig. 1, push in the push button to
prevent rotation of the spindle. Then, secure the
depressed center wheel by tightening the wheel nut
with the wrench.
2. Disassembling
Follow the above procedures in reverse.
CAUTIONS
Comfirm that the depressed center wheel is mounted
firmly.
Confirm that the push button is disengaged by
pushing push button two or three times before
switching the power tool on.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

1. Inspecting the depressed center wheel
Ensure that the depressed center wheel is free of
cracks and surface defects.
2. Inspecting the mounting screws:
Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure
that they are properly tightened. Should any of the
screws be loose, retighten them immediately. Failure
to do so could result in serious hazard.
