Installing new grinder wheels

[beck3906]

I just installed CBN wheels on each side of my grinder. How do I tighten the bolts? Each time I tighten one end I seem to loosen the other.

I assume you meant nuts. They are basically self tightening. Just snug them up by holding the wheel and when turned on and they tighten against each other. One is right hand and one is left hand. Do not over crank any one side.

I just held the wheel and tightened one nut at a time in the correct rotation.

I was faced with the same confusion. I accidently discovered what JT said.

Yep, wrote this one without thinking too much.

I thought it would be hand tight but needed to confirm. Wasn't seeing anything on videos I. Watched saying to crank them down hard.

Really enjoying the CBN wheels. Should have done this years ago.
