3. Snap nut and collet together by firmly applying
downward pressure onto assembly with the palm
of hand.
4. To disassemble collet from nut, hold nut firmly with
one hand and press the collet to one side with the
other hand.
Installing Grinding Points
1. Remove dust and debris from the collet body
before inserting grinding points.
2. Insert the collet with the collet nut attached into the
collet body. Thread the collet nut onto the spindle
but do not tighten it yet.
3. Clean the grinding point mandrel, then insert it a
minimum of 3/4" into the collet. The mandrel will
overhang the collet and the grinding point about 1/2".
Collet
Insert mandrel
a minimum of 3/4" inside the collet Overhang about 1/2"
4. Hold the spindle shaft steady with a 1/2" open end
wrench and securely tighten the collet nut with an
11/16" open end wrench.
5. Reverse the procedure when removing the grind-
ing point.
To reduce the risk of injury, always
WARNING
securely tighten the collet to the
grinders and clean mandrels before inserting
them into the collet. Otherwise the high-speed
rotation of the tool could force the grinding point
to fly out of the collet.
OPERATION
To reduce the risk of injury, always
WARNING
unplug tool before attaching or
removing accessories or making adjustments.
Use only specifically recommended accessories.
Others may be hazardous.
To reduce the risk of injury, wear safety goggles
or glasses with side shields.
If the grinder begins vibrating, immediately stop
the motor and check to see if the grinding point is
dull. Dull grinding points will cause the tool to vi-
brate and could force the collet to fly off the tool.
Always replace or sharpen dull grinding points.
Grinding point
Mandrel
Always hold the grinder firmly before starting the
motor. To start the motor for Cat. No. 5192, turn the
toggle switch ON. To start Cat. No. 5194, press the
paddle switch. For Cat. No. 5196, pull the trigger.
Using the Trigger Lock Mechanism
(Cat. No. 5196)
The lock button holds the trigger in the ON position
for continuous full speed use.
1. To lock the trigger, hold the lock button in while
pulling the trigger, then release the trigger.
2. To unlock the trigger, pull the trigger and release.
The lock button will pop out.
Allow the motor to reach full speed and then place
the grinding point on the work surface. The tool is
designed to work most efficiently with only light pres-
sure. Excessive pressure will burn the work surface,
damage the grinding point, bend the mandrel, and
cause slow grinding.
When a grinding point becomes dull, the grinder may
start to vibrate. When this happens immediately
stop using the grinding point. Vibration could loosen
the collet, causing the grinding point to fly off the tool.
Replace a dull grinding point with a new one or use
a dressing stone to sharpen the dull point. Handle
grinding points carefully. Dropping them or dropping
the grinder could cause the point to shatter. Do not
operate the grinder carelessly because it may cause
the grinding point to explode at high speeds.
MAINTENANCE
To reduce the risk of injury, always
WARNING
unplug the tool before performing
any maintenance. Never disassemble the tool.
Contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for ALL
repairs.
Maintaining Tools
Keep your tool in good repair by adopting a regular
maintenance program. Inspect your tool for issues
such as undue noise, misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts, or any other condi-
tion that may affect the tool operation. Return the tool
to a MILWAUKEE service facility for repair. After six
months to one year, depending on use, return the
tool to a MILWAUKEE service facility for inspection.
To reduce the risk of personal in-
WARNING
jury, electric shock and damage,
never immerse your tool in liquid or allow a liquid
to flow inside it.
Clean dust and debris from vents. Keep handles
clean, dry and free of oil or grease. Use only mild
soap and a damp cloth to clean, since certain clean-
ing agents and solvents are harmful to plastics and
other insulated parts. Some of these include gasoline,
turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint thinner, chlorinated
cleaning solvents, ammonia and household deter-
gents containing ammonia. Never use flammable or
combustible solvents around tools.
For repairs, return the tool to the nearest service center.
