WARNING
mum Safe Operating Speed rated
at least equal to the maximum speed marked on
the power tool. This speed is based on the
strength of the wheel, allowing for a reasonable
measure of safety. It is not meant to imply a best
or most efficient operating speed. Do not exceed
the Maximum Safe Operating Speed.
Installing/Removing Grinding Wheels
Make sure the wheel does not extend beyond the
bottom of the guard. Threaded hub grinding wheels
may require a deeper guard (see "Accessories").
1. Remove the battery pack. WARNING! Always
remove battery pack before changing or removing
accessories.
2. Properly position the guard.
3. Wipe the flange, FIXTEC nut and spindle to re-
move dust and debris. Inspect the parts for dam-
age. Replace if needed. Use only MILWAUKEE
mounting hardware designed for your tool.
4. Place the flange on spindle, as shown.
5. Place the selected wheel on the spindle and align
it with the flange.
6. Press in the spindle lock button. With the tightening
tab up, thread the FIXTEC nut clockwise onto the
spindle. Use the tightening tab on the FIXTEC nut
to grasp the nut and tighten securely. Press down
the tightening tab.
7. To remove wheel, remove the battery pack and
reverse the procedure.
Sanding Disc Selection
Use sanding discs and accessories that are:
• correct size as written on tool's nameplate.
• rated at or above the RPM listed on the tool's name-
plate.
• correct accessory, wheel type and grit for the job.
Select the correct type of sanding disc for your job.
Generally, use 24 or 36 grit for heavy stock removal;
50, 60, or 80 grit for medium stock removal and 120
grit for finishing. Always begin with a coarse grit, us-
ing successively finer grits to obtain the desired finish.
•Aluminum Oxide: For fast cutting, general purpose
discs for most metal jobs. Best for cold-rolled steel,
stainless steel or metals requiring tough, fast cutting,
long lasting abrasives.
•Aluminum Zirconia Bi-Cut: Unique grit pattern is
arranged in clusters for faster stock removal and
cleaning. Ideal for removing paint from cars, boats,
etc. without clogging.

WARNING
wear safety goggles or glasses
with side shields. Never grind without proper
safety equipment.
Controlled Start
The controlled start feature reduces the torque reac-
tion "jerk" when the trigger is pulled.
Electric Brake
The electric brake engages when the switch is re-
leased, causing the wheel to stop within seconds.
There may be a delay between the time the switch is
released and when the brake engages. Occasionally
the brake may miss completely. If the brake misses
frequently, have the tool serviced by an authorized
MILWAUKEE service facility. Make sure the tool
comes to a complete stop before laying it down.
