Always prioritize safety when working with grinding wheels. Failure to follow safety precautions can result in serious injury. Refer to the official Safety Information PDF for comprehensive guidelines:

  • Wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), including safety glasses, face shield, gloves, and hearing protection.
  • Ensure the grinding wheel's maximum RPM rating (6500 RPM) is compatible with your angle grinder's speed.
  • Inspect the wheel for damage (cracks, chips) before each use. Do not use damaged wheels.
  • Mount the wheel securely on the angle grinder's 5/8-inch-11 threaded arbor.
  • Maintain a firm grip on the grinder and keep bystanders clear of the work area.
  • Avoid applying excessive pressure, which can cause wheel breakage or grinder kickback.
  • Grind only on the edge of the wheel for grinding applications.
