Bakelite bonded cut-off wheels are sensitive to humidity. Therefore,
do not mix new, dry cut-off wheels with used damp ones. Store the
cut-off wheels in a dry place, horizontally on a flat support.
The precision of diamond and CBN cut-off wheels (and thus the
quality of the cut) depends on how carefully the following instructions
are observed:

Never expose the cut-off wheel to a heavy mechanical load, or
heat.

Store the cut-off wheel in a dry place, horizontally on a flat
support, preferably under light pressure.

A clean and dry cut-off wheel does not corrode. Therefore, clean
and dry the cut-off wheel before storing. If possible, use ordinary
detergents for the cleaning.

Regular dressing of the cut-off wheel is also part of the general
maintenance.
