Operation with wire wheel brush
(optional accessory)
CAUTION:
• Check operation of wire wheel brush by running
tool with no load, insuring that no one is in front
of or in line with the wire wheel brush.
• Do not use wire wheel brush that is damaged,
or which is out of balance. Use of damaged wire
wheel brush could increase potential for injury
from contact with broken wires.
• ALWAYS use guard with wire wheel brushes,
assuring diameter of wheel fits inside guard.
Wheel can shatter during use and guard helps
to reduce chances of personal injury.

Unplug tool and place it upside down allowing easy
access to spindle. Remove any accessories on spindle.
Thread wire wheel brush onto spindle and tighten with
the wrenches.
When using wire wheel brush, avoid applying too much
pressure which causes over bending of wires, leading
to premature breakage.

CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspec-
tion or maintenance.
• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol
or the like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks
may result.
