A Type 1 guard must be installed when using a Type 1 cut-

the wheel should break.

WARNING!

1. Unplug tool and place it upside down on a level surface. Remove any

accessories from spindle.

2. Loosen the guard screw and slip the guard over the spindle.

Position the guard in the location which offers best control and guard

protection. For operating zones that provide maximum protection for the

operator, see Fig. 9. Tighten the guard screw securely.

3. To adjust the guard, unplug the tool, loosen the guard screw, rotate the

guard to the desired position and retighten the guard screw.

to the access holes and lift out. To install the adjusting shoe, insert the

head of the carriage bolts into guard access holes and slide the shoe

over to the far edge of slots. Adjust shoe to desired position and tighten

wing nuts securely.
