1. Open the guard latch (K), and align the
lugs (L) on the guard with the slots on
the gear case (M). 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 rotate freely in the
groove on the gear case hub.
3. With the guard latch open, rotate
the guard (I) 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 the clamp lever
in open position.
5. To remove the guard, open the guard
latch, rotate the guard so that the
arrows are aligned and pull up on the
guard.
NOTE: The guard is pre-adjusted to the
diameter of the gear case hub at the
factory. If, after a period of time, the guard
becomes loose, tighten the adjusting
screw (N) with clamp lever in the closed
position with guard installed on the tool.
CAUTION: Do not tighten the adjusting screw with the clamp
lever in the open position. Undetectable damage to the guard or the
mounting hub may result.

CAUTION: If the guard cannot be tightened by the adjusting
clamp, do not use the tool. To reduce the risk of personal injury, take
L
the tool and guard to a service center to repair or replace the guard.
NOTE: Edge grinding and cutting can be performed with
Type 27 wheels designed and specified for this purpose; 1/4"
(6.35 mm) thick wheels are designed for surface grinding while thinner
Type 27 wheels need to be examined for the manufacturer's label to
M
see if they can be used for surface grinding or only edge grinding/
K
cutting. A Type 1 guard must be used for any wheel where surface
grinding is forbidden. Cutting can also be performed by using a
Type 1 wheel and a Type 1 guard.
