WARNING: Accessories must be rated for at least
the speed recom mended on the tool warning label.
Wheels and other accessories running over their
rated accessory speed may fly apart and cause injury.
Threaded accessories must have a 5/8"–11 hub. Every
unthreaded accessory must have a 7/8" (22.2 mm)

Mounting Guard
Mounting and Removing Guard
(Fig. F, G)
WARNING: Guards must be used with all grinding
wheels, cutting wheels, sanding flap discs, wire
brushes, and wire wheels. Guard modification
that results in reduced coverage of the accessory
could result in severe personal injury. The tool
may be used without a guard only when sanding
with conventional sanding discs. A Type 27 guard
(intended for use with depressed center grinding
wheels [Type 27 and Type 29], sanding flap discs,
wire wheels and wire cup brushes) is included with
the tool. Grinding and cutting with wheels other than
Type 27 and 29 require different accessory guards not
included with tool. A Type 1 guard is for use with the
Type 1 wheel and is available at extra cost from your
local dealer or authorized service center. Mounting
instructions for accessory guards are shown below
and are also included in the accessory package.
1. Open the guard latch
13
, and align the lugs
14
on
the guard with the slots on the gear case
15
. This will
align the lugs on the guard with the slots on the gear
case cover.

2. Push the guard down until the guard lugs engage and
can rotate freely into the groove on the gear case hub.
3. With the guard latch open, rotate the guard
6
into the
desired working position. The guard body should be
positioned between the spindle and the operator to
provide maximum operator protection.
4. Close the guard latch to secure the guard on the gear
case. You should not be able to rotate the guard by
hand when the latch is closed. Do not operate the
grinder with a loose guard or with the guard latch in
open position.
5. To remove the guard, follow the procedure above in
reverse order.

case hub at the factory. If, after a period of time, the guard
becomes loose, tighten the adjusting screw
