IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT
GUARDS
Guards must be used with all grinding wheels,
sanding flap discs, wire brushes and wire
wheels. The tool may be used without a guard
only when sanding with conventional sanding
discs. D

WALT models D28493, D28494,
D28474, D28499 are provided with a guard
intended for use with depressed center wheels
(Type 27), and hubbed grinding wheels (Type
27). The same guard is designed for use with sanding flap discs,
wire brushes and wire wheels. Grinding and cutting with wheels
other than Type 27 and 29 require different accessory guards not
included with the tool. Mounting instructions for these accessory
guards are included in the accessory package.
CAUTION: When using a grinding wheel with a Type 27, 28, or
29 guard, be sure that the bottom surface of the grinding wheel is
inside the the guard lip.

dure above in reverse order.
NOTE: The guard is pre-adjusted to the

lever in open position. Undetectable damage to the guard or the
mounting hub may result.

against the soft mount.
2. Depress the spindle lock button and use a wrench to tighten the
hub of the wheel.
