Caution! Allow the tool to reach full speed before
touching tool to the work surface. Lift the tool from
the work surface before turning the tool off.
Spindle lock
The spindle lock button (5) is provided to prevent the spindle
from rotating when installing or removing wheels. Operate
the spindle lock only when the tool is turned off and the
wheel has come to a complete stop.
Warning! Do not engage the spindle lock while the tool is
operating. Damage to the tool will result and attached
accessory may spin off possibly resulting in injury.
To engage the lock, depress the spindle lock button shown
in Fig. E and rotate the spindle until you are unable to rotate
the spindle further.

Mounting and Removing Hubbed Wheels
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.
Hubbed wheels install directly on the 5/8 in.-11 threaded
spindle.
1. Thread the wheel on the spindle by hand.
2. Depress the spindle lock button and use a wrench
(Fig. E) to tighten the hub of the wheel.
3. Reverse the above procedure to remove the wheel.

5. To remove the wheel, depress the spindle lock button
Note: If the wheel spins after the threaded clamp nut is
tightened, check the orientation of the threaded clamp nut. If
a thin wheel is installed with the pilot on the clamp nut
against the wheel, it will spin because the height of the
pilotprevents the clamp nut from holding the wheel.
