source, use an extension cord of sufficient thickness
and rated capacity. The extension cord should be
kept as short as practicable.
4. Fitting and adjusting the wheel guard
The wheel guard is a protective device to prevent
injury should the depressed center wheel shatter
during operation. Ensure that the guard is properly
fitted and fastened before commencing grinding
operation. By slightly loosening the setting screw,
the wheel guard can be turned and set at any
desired angle for maximum operational
effectiveness. Ensure that the setting screw is
thoroughly tightened after adjusting the wheel guard.
5. Ensure that the depressed center wheel to be utilized
is the correct type and free of cracks or surface
defects. Also ensure that the depressed center wheel
is properly mounted and the wheel nut is securely
tightened, Refer to the section on “Depressed Center
