of the inner flange fits into the inner diameter of
the depressed center wheel perfectly. Mounting
the inner flange on the wrong side may result in the
dangerous vibration.
Mount the inner flange onto the spindle.
Make sure to fit the dented part of the inner flange onto
the straight part at the bottom of the spindle.

OPERATION

WARNING:
It should never be necessary to
force the tool. The weight of the tool applies ade-
quate pressure. Forcing and excessive pressure
could cause dangerous wheel breakage.
WARNING:
ALWAYS replace wheel if tool is
dropped while grinding.
WARNING:
NEVER hit the workpiece with the
wheel.
WARNING:
Avoid bouncing and snagging
the wheel, especially when working corners,
sharp edges etc. This can cause loss of control and
kickback.
WARNING:
NEVER use tool with wood cutting
blades and other saw blades. Such blades when
used on a grinder frequently kick and cause loss of
control leading to personal injury.
