Adjusting and Mounting Guard (Fig. F, G) CAUTION: Turn unit off and unplug the tool before making any adjustments or removing or installing attachments or accessories. CAUTION: BEFORE operating the tool, identify which guard adjustment option your tool is set to. Adjustment Options For guard adjustment, the guard release lever 10 engages one of the alignment holes 17 on the guard collar using a ratcheting feature. Your grinder offers two options for this adjustment. • One-touchTM: In this position the engaging face is slanted and will ride over to the next alignment hole when guard is rotated in a clockwise direction (spindle facing user) but self-locks in the counter- clockwise direction. • Two-touchTM: In this position the engaging face is straight and squared off. It will NOT ride over to the next alignment hole unless guard release lever is pressed and held while simultaneously rotating the guard in either a clockwise or counter-clockwise direction (spindle facing user).
