Removing & Installing
Grinding Wheels
If installing a grinding wheel for the first time,
or when replacing a worn wheel, this section
explains the order in which this process must
take place. Every time a grinding wheel is
removed from its hub, this procedure must be
repeated. If installing a new wheel right out of
the box, the ring (
Page 23 ) test must also still
be completed.
