How to correctly insert the grinding disc on a BOSCH GWX1350VSP grinder?

Question

Accepted Answer

The BOSCH GWX13-50VSP grinder uses the innovative X-Lock system that allows you to change grinding discs without tools, unlike traditional grinders with a key and nut. This technology makes installation simple and quick.

Before you begin, ensure that the grinder is completely unplugged and that the disc has had time to cool down if it has been used recently. Wait a few minutes if you have just used it, as the discs become very hot during operation.

Pre-inspection: Clean the X-Lock Accessory Mount (the central mounting support) to check that there is no dirt, dust, or debris. Also, examine the two X-Lock clamping tabs to ensure they are open and undamaged. If you detect any foreign material, clean it thoroughly before proceeding.

Disc installation: Place the Type 27 grinding disc on the X-Lock Accessory Mount by precisely aligning the alignment contours of the X-Lock mounting hub (located at the center of the disc) with those of the grinder's support. This step is important as it ensures proper centering. Then firmly push the disc into the mount until you hear a distinct audible click, which indicates that the clamping tabs have locked into place.

Final check: After the click, examine the top of the X-Lock mounting hub of the disc to ensure it is not above the clamping height guide (the two small metal protrusions on each side of the central support). If the hub exceeds this height, it means that the clamping is not correct; in this case, remove the disc, clean the mount further, and try again. A poorly clamped disc could detach during use and pose a danger.

Safe removal: To remove the disc later, always ensure that the grinder is stopped and unplugged. Operate the X-Lock release lever by pressing the back of the lever and then lifting it. Never handle the release lever while the disc is spinning, as this could cause serious injury.
