ENGLISH
NOTE: Edge grinding and cutting can be performed with Type
27 wheels designed and specified for this purpose; 6 mm thick
wheels are designed for surface grinding while thinner Type 27
wheels need to be examined for the manufacturer's label to see
if they can be used for surface grinding or only edge grinding/
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41 wheel and a Type 1guard.
NOTE: See the Grinding and Cutting AccessoryChart to select
the proper guard / accessorycombination.

making any adjustments or removing or installing
attachments oraccessories.

CAUTION: BEFORE operating the tool, identify which

Adjustment Options
For guard adjustment, the guard release lever
9
engages one of
the alignment holes
15
on the guard collar using a ratcheting
feature. Your grinder offers two options for thisadjustment.
• One-touch
TM
: In this position the engaging face is slanted
and will ride over to the next alignment hole when guard
is rotated in a clockwise direction (spindle facing user) but
self-locks in the anti-clockwisedirection.
• Two-touch
TM
: In this position the engaging face is straight
and squared off. It will NOT ride over to the next alignment
hole unless guard release lever is pressed and held while
simultaneously rotating the guard in either a clockwise or
anti-clockwise direction (spindle facing user).
