Depressed center Type 27 grinding wheels
must be used with included flanges.

flange, centering the wheel on
the raised section (pilot) of the
backing flange.
3. Figure G - While depressing the
spindle lock button, thread the
threaded locking flange (13) on
spindle. Figure H - If the wheel you
are installing is more than 1/8 inch
(3mm) thick, place the threaded
locking flange on the spindle so that
the raised section (pilot) fits into the
center of the wheel. Figure I - If
the wheel you are installing is 1/8
inch (3mm) thick or less, place the
threaded locking flange on the spindle

locking flange with included wrench.
NOTE
: If the wheel spins after the
threaded locking flange is tightened, check
the orientation of the threaded clamp nut.
If a thin wheel is installed with the pilot on
the clamp nut against the wheel, it will spin
because the height of the pilot prevents the
clamp nut from holding the wheel.
