Diamond wheels must be replaced when their cutting or grinding performance drops significantly. This
generally is the case when the segments reach a height of less than 1/16".
Other wheels must be replaced when their cutting performance drops significantly or other parts of
the angle grinder (not the wheel) come into contact with the material you are working on.
Abrasive wheels must be replaced when their expiry date has been reached.
