Grinding Wheel

Your AG370 grinder is designed to accept only 4-1/2" abrasive discs with a 7/8"

bore. Check to ensure that any discs you use on this machine are rated for the

11,500 RPM speed of your grinder. Check also for any damage to an abrasive disc

before you install it. Any disc that shows a crack, has been dropped, or subjected

to other damage due to temperature extremes or solvents should be discarded.

damaged disc can ﬂy apart in use and may cause serious injury to the operator or

bystanders.

Guard

Your grinder comes with an adjustable wheel guard installed. This is to allow you to

grind at various angles and still be protected to some extent from ﬂying residue or

debris should a disc shatter in use. Unplug the grinder. Loosen the clamping screw

on the collar and rotate the guard to give you protection and expose the disc on the

appropriate side. Tighten the screw to clamp the guard in place. Do not use this

tool with the guard removed.

Side Handle

The auxiliary side handle for your grinder may be mounted on either the left or right

side of the tool. Unplug the grinder. Screw the handle ﬁrmly into the threaded hole

on either side of the metal grinding head.
