2. Only use a grinding wheel with the correct arbor size and shape that
matches the grinder's spindle.
3. Always ensure the wheel guard is attached correctly and do not
operate the angle grinder without the guard attached.
4. Ensure the grinding wheel has a clean edge. Check the grinding
wheel for wear or chipping and replace if necessary.
5. Never install more than one wheel at a time.
6. Before using the tool on the workpiece, run the tool at the highest
speed, without a load, for at least 30 seconds in a safe position. Stop
immediately if there is any vibration or wobbling that could indicate
poor installation or a poorly balanced grinding wheel. Check the tool
to determine the cause.
7. Do not subject the grinding wheel to any lateral pressure as it may
damage the tool or cause it to kickback.
7.1 Confirm that your grinding wheel is designed for side-grinding
before using it for that purpose.
8. A large amount of sparks will be created when working with an angle
grinder. Hold the tool so that sparks fly away from you and other
persons or flammable materials. Keep up-to-date fire-prevention safety
instructions in the event of a fire.
9. Do not use a coolant or water with this angle grinder.
10. Do not use as a fixed grinder.
11. Only use the correct size wheel. Using a larger or smaller wheel may
apply unexpected forces against the wheel, causing it to shatter.
KICKBACK PRECAUTIONS
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged grinding accessory.
The tool kicks out and away from the workpiece while the grinding
accessory is still active. This can inflict a serious injury on the user or a
bystander. Kickback can also damage the tool or workpiece.
Kickback can be avoided by taking proper precautions:
1. Maintain a firm grip on the tool and position your body and arms to
allow you to resist a kickback. Kickback will propel the tool in the
direction opposite to the grinding accessory's direction of rotation. A
snagged grinding wheel may pull the tool out of the grasp of the user.
