Guards and Flanges
It is important to choose the correct guards and flanges to use
with the grinder accessories. See pages 9–11 for the correct
accessories.

WARNING: Accessories must be rated for at least the speed
recom mended on the tool warning label. Wheels and other
accessories running over rated accessory speed may burst and
cause injury. Every unthreaded accessory must have a 7/8" arbor
hole. If it does not, it may have been designed for a circular saw and
should not be used. Use only the accessories shown on pages
9–11. Accessory ratings must be above listed minimum wheel
speed as shown on tool nameplate.
