ASSEMBLY
Make sure the flats on the bottom of the disc flange are
engaged with the flats on the spindle.
Place the grinding wheel over the spindle.
WARNING:
Always install a grinding wheel with the depressed
center against the disc 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.
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.
Depress the spindle lock button and rotate the wheel
clockwise until the spindle locks in position.
