Additional safety
instructions for working
with wire brushes
Special safety instructions for
working with wire brushes:
•
Be aware that the wire brushes
also lose wire pieces during typi-
cal use. Do not overload the wi-
res by pressing down too hard.
Flying wire pieces can very easily penet-
rate thin clothing and/or your skin.
•
If a protective hood is recom-
mended, do not allow the wire
brushes and the protective hood
to touch each other.
The diameter
of plate and cup brushes can enlarge if
too much pressure and centrifugal force
is exerted.
Practical tips
When selecting the tool,
ensure that its speciied per
-
missible rotation speed is at
least as high as the maxi-
mum rotation speed speci-
ied on the angle grinder.
When selecting the disc, pay
attention to the maximum per-
missible diameter and the ma-
ximum permissible thickness.
Pay attention to the thread
size M14 when selecting the
brush.
Scrubbing wheels
Never use a cutting wheel
for scrubbing !
The device must only be
operated with the protecti-
ve hood mounted when the
rough grinding wheel is used.
Exert only moderate pressure on the work-
piece. Move the device evenly back and
forth.
A working angle of 30° to 40° achieves
the best results for scrub grinding.
Grinding with a wire
brush
Ensure that you observe the
permissible speed when se-
lecting the wire brush. The
permissible rotation speed
of the wire brush must be at
least as high as the highest
rotation speed indicated on
the angle grinder.
Wear protective goggles: wires
may become released!
Suitable for rough rust removal, cleaning
weld seams and removing paint.
Press the wire brush with medium force
onto the workpiece to be processed.
Do not exert excessive strain on the wire
brush by pressing down too hard.
Cutting disc
Never use a scrubbing wheel
for cutting !
The device must only be
operated with the protective
hood mounted when the cut-
ting disc is used.
