Figure 12. These screws hold the guard in
place.
2. Adjust the two vertically-aligned screws (C
and D in Figure 12) so the guard is upright
and not touching the disc. The top screw
moves the guard toward the disc and the
bottom screw moves it away from the disc.

The setscrew/checknut combination shown in

belt arm from the motor, be sure to remove this
setscrew to allow the arm housing to be slipped
of the motor mounting.
