5. With the guard latch open (O), rotate the guard as shown in
figure 8. The guard body should be positioned between the
spindle and the operator to provide maximum operator protection.
6. Open the top half of the guard again, and tighten guard stop
screw (O). Turn screw clockwise
until fully seated onto guard
stop. Close top half of the guard
(U) again until it clicks into place.
Insure the guard is completely
closed and locked.
7. Close the guard latch to secure
the guard on the gear case.
NOTE: You should not be able
to rotate the guard by hand
when the latch is closed. 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 with
guard latch in the closed position.
CAUTION: Do not tighten the adjusting screw with the guard
latch in open position. Undetectable damage to the guard or the
mounting hub may result.
CAUTION:If guard cannot be tightened by adjusting clamp, do
not use tool and take the tool and guard to a service center to
repair or replace the guard.
WARNING: Do not operate the tool with a loose guard or with
the guard in the open position. A loose or open guard cannot
protect the operator from broken wheel fragments, accidental
contact with wheel, and sparks that could ignite clothing.
8. To remove guard, follow these steps in reverse.
NOTE: Take care not to lose the guard stop screw (O) so it can
be re-installed with the the adjustable cut-off guard.
