Porter-Cable 7418 Grinder User Manual


 
TO INSTALL WHEEL GUARD
A TYPE 27 wheel guard is furnished with the tool. A TYPE 1 wheel guard is
available as an accessory for cut-off wheels. Both guards are installed and
adjusted in the same manner.
WARNING: Always use an approved, and properly adjusted wheel
guard where required (see ACCESSORIES Section of this manual).
1. CAUTION: DISCONNECT TOOL FROM POWER SOURCE.
2. Rest tool on its back with spindle facing up.
3. NOTE: INSURE THAT THE TOOL IS DISCONNECTED FROM THE
POWER SOURCE AND THAT THE SWITCH IS IN “OFF” POSITION
BEFORE REPLACING OR ADJUSTING THE GUARD. Seat guard onto
mounting flange. Rotate the guard to a position that will place the guard
between the operator and the grinding wheel (or other accessory requiring a
guard). Tighten clamp screw (A) Fig. 4 to secure the guard in proper position
(see Fig. 5).
WARNING: Always make sure the wheel guard is positioned
between operator and the wheel, so that flying chips or pieces of a
wheel that might break will be deflected away from the operator (Fig.
5).
