Warning!
Do not use edge grinding/cutting wheels for surface
grinding applications because these wheels are not designed
for side pressures encountered with surface grinding. Wheel
breakage and injury may result.
u
Allow tool to reach full speed before touching tool to work
surface.
u
Apply minimum pressure to work surface, allowing tool to
operate at high speed. Cutting rate is greatest when the
tool operates at high speed.
u
Once a cut is begun and a notch is established in the
workpiece, do not change the angle of the cut. Changing
the angle will cause the wheel to bend and may cause
wheel breakage.
u
Remove the tool from work surface before turning tool off.
Allow the tool to stop rotating before setting it down.
Use

Let the tool work at its own pace. Do not overload.
u
Carefully guide the cable in order to avoid accidentally
cutting it.
u
Be prepared for a stream of sparks when the grinding or
cutting disc touches the workpiece.
