climb out or kick out. The wheel may either jump toward or
away from the operator, depending on direction of the
wheel's movement at the point of pinching. Abrasive wheels
may also break under these conditions. Kickback is the
result of tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures
or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper
precautions as given below:
a. Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position
your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback
forces. Always use auxiliary handle, if provided, for
maximum control over kickback or torque reaction
during start up. The operator can control torque
reaction or kickback forces, if proper precautions are
taken.
b. Never place your hand near the rotating accessory.
Accessory may kickback over your hand.
c. Do not position your body in the area where power
tool will move if kickback occurs. Kickback will propel
the tool in direction opposite to the wheel's movement at
the point of snagging.
d. Use special care when working corners, sharp
edges etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the
accessory. Corners, sharp edges or bouncing have a
tendency to snag the rotating accessory and cause loss
of control or kickback.
e. Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or
toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent
kickback and loss of control.
Assembly
Warning! To prevent accidental operation, turn off
and unplug tool before performing the following
operations. Failure to do this could result in
serious personal injury.
Auxiliary handle
An auxiliary 3 position handle is furnished with your grinder.
It can be screwed into either side or the top of the gear case
housing.
Warning! This handle should be used at all time
to maintain complete control of the tool.

Accessories

It is important to choose the correct guards, backing pads
and flanges to use with grinder accessories.
(Original instructions)
Mounting guard (Fig. B and C)
1. Figure B: Open the guard latch (6), and align the lugs
on the guard (7) with the slots on the gear case cover
(8).
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 into the
desired working position. The guard body should be
positioned between the spindle and the operator to
provide maximum operator protection.
4. Figure C: Close the guard latch (6) 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 guard latch in open
position.
5. To remove the guard, open the guard latch, rotate the
guard so that the lugs and slots are aligned and pull up
on the guard.
Adjusting the guard (Fig. D)
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 (9) with latch in
the closed position and guard installed on the tool.
Caution! Do not tighten the adjusting screw with
the latch in the open position. Undetectable
damage to the guard or the mounting hub may result.
Caution! If the guard cannot be tightened by the
guard latch, do not use the tool and take the tool
and guard to a service center to repair or replace the guard.

Caution! Hold the side handle (4) and body of the
tool firmly to maintain control of the tool at start up
and during use and until the wheel or accessory
stops rotating. Make sure the wheel has come to a complete
stopbe fore laying the tool down.
