Removing & Installing
Wheel & Hub

To remove and reinstall the wheel and hub:

1.

DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!

2.

Place a sheet of plywood on top of table to
protect it, as shown in Figure 28, and open
the grinding wheel cover.

The procedure in this section describes how
to install or swap one or more pre-balanced
grinding wheel and hub assemblies. Having a
selection of pre-balanced grinding wheel and hub
assemblies on the shelf ready to go increases
productivity if different grinding wheel profiles
must be use during a grinding project.
