ASSEMBLY
 Place the wheel wrench on the arbor nut then slide the
6 mm hex wrench into the arbor.
 Holding the hex wrench firmly to prevent movement, turn
the wheel wrench counterclockwise to loosen.
 Remove the arbor nut and outer washer, leaving the inner
washer on the arbor.
WARNING:
If inner washer has been removed, replace it before
placing wheel on arbor. Failure to do so could
cause an accident since the wheel will not tighten
properly. Never use wheels that have openings,
grooves, or teeth on this tool.
 Place the cutting wheel onto arbor with the arrows on
wheel going in the counterclockwise direction.
NOTE: Two water nozzles come installed on this product. Be
sure to install cutting wheel so that there is a water nozzle on
each side of cutting wheel with water ports facing the cutting
wheel. The outer water nozzle can be easily removed for
installation of cutting wheel. Check that outer nozzle outlet
hole has been reattached with water port facing toward the
cutting wheel.
 Replace the outer washer. The double "D" flats on the
washers align with the flats on the arbor.
 Replace the arbor nut on the arbor. Using wheel wrench
and arbor wrench, tighten arbor nut securely.
