Never use a wheel that is bigger than the allowed wheel
diameter. The allowed wheel revolutions must always be

Work proposal/Roughing grinding
Keep the wheel at 30° - 40° against the workpiece surface
and grind with regular motions.
Dividing grinding

To divide hard stones, a diamond dividing wheel is the best
option.

grinding!
Carbon brushes
Have the carbon brushes checked by an electrician when
sparks are produced excessively. Caution! Carbon brushes
may only be replaced by an electrician.
