TOOL STORAGE

CONFIRM TIGHTNESS OF ARBOR NUTS

Your DELTA

23-198 (6 in.) or 23-199 (8 in.) Grinder has

convenient on-board tool storage for the dressing tool

provided. The tool holder, shown in Figure 3, is located

on the rear of the grinder base.

Prior to using your grinder for the first time, it is

recommended that you check the tightness of the arbor

nuts. To check the tightness on the arbor nuts, do the

following:

1. Remove the thumb screws (A) securing the outer

face of the wheel guard to the tool frame. See

Figure 4.

2. Rotate the wheel guard to free it from the retaining

screws and remove guard.

3. Raise both wings of the arbor nut.

4. Firmly grasp the wings of the arbor nut (B) with one

hand while using the other hand to keep the wheel

from moving. See Figure 5. Tighten the arbor nut as

far as you can.

NOTE: You may also use the 13mm flat wrench

(provided) positioned on the flat of the arbor shaft,

(located between left side wheel and motor) to keep the

shaft steady as you tighten the arbor nut.

NOTE: The arbor nut on the right side of the machine

tightens by rotating it clockwise, the arbor nut on

the left side of the machine tightens by rotating it

counterclockwise.

5. Fold the wings of the arbor nut back to their original

position so that they lay flat against the thick outer

flange, then re-attach wheel guard.

6. Repeat process for other side.

NOTE: As you use your grinder, the force and direction

of the wheel will cause the arbor nut to tighten

automatically. However, it is recommended that your

periodically check the tightness of the nuts as part of

your regular tool maintenance.
