I have a DeWalt 4 1/2" angle grinder. I tried mounting a cutoff wheel
(thinner than a regular grinding wheel) yesterday, and found I couldn't tighten the

flange is poperly seated and the nut is fully tightened.

Is there a fix for this? Or do I need a different grinder?

Thanks,

Easy fix. Stick in a washer with a 5/8" hole

One could not be a successful Leftwinger without realizing that,
in contrast to the popular conception supported by newspapers
and mothers of Leftwingers, a goodly number of Leftwingers are
not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid.
