DeWalt D28065 Instruction Manual page 18

5. Continuously move the tool in a forward and
backward motion to avoid creating gouges in
the work surface. Allowing the tool to rest on
the work surface without moving, or moving the
tool in a circular motion causes burning and
swirling marks on the work surface.
6. Remove the tool from the work surface before
turning the tool off. Allow the tool to stop
rotating before setting it down.
CAUTION: Use extra care when working over an edge, as a
sudden sharp movement of grinder may be experienced.
Mounting and Using Cutting
(Type 1) Wheels (Fig. 1)
Cutting wheels include diamond wheels and abrasive discs. Abrasive
cutting wheels for metal and concrete use are available. Diamond
blades for concrete cutting can also be used.
NOTE: All grinders that use Type 1 wheels use the 1-11/16" (43 mm)
diameter quick-change backing flange (G1).
WARNING: A closed, 2-sided cutting wheel guard is not included
with this tool and is re quired when using cutting wheels. Fail ure to use
proper flange and guard can re sult in injury resulting from wheel
breakage and wheel contact. See page 10 for more information.
MOUNTING CLOSED (TYPE 1) GUARD (FIG. 17, 18)
1. Open the guard latch (M). Align the lugs (K) on the guard with the
slots (L) on the gear case.
2. Push the guard down until the guard
FIG. 16
lug engages and rotates freely in the
groove on the gear case hub.
3. Rotate guard (D) into 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 cover. You
should be unable to rotate the guard
by hand when the latch is in closed
position. If rotation is possible,
tighten the adjusting screw (N) with
clamp lever in the closed position.
Do not operate grinder with a loose
guard or 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: If, after a period of time, the guard
becomes loose, tighten the adjusting screw (N)
with the clamp lever in the closed position.
CAUTION: Do not tighten adjusting screw
with clamp lever in open position. Undetectable
damage to guard or mounting hub may result.
MOUNTING CUTTING WHEELS (FIG. 9)
CAUTION: The quick-change backing flange and threaded clamp
nut (included with tool) must be the same diameter when used with
cutting wheels.
