1. Always start at no load to achieve maximum speed then start working.
2. Do not force the disc to work faster, reducing the Disc’s moving speed means longer working time.
3. Always work with a 15-30 angle between disc and workpiece. Larger angles will cut
ridges into the workpiece and affect the surface finish. Move the angle grinder across
and back and forth over the workpiece.
4. When using a cutting disc never change the cutting angle otherwise you will stall the
disc and angle grinder motor or break the disc. When cutting, only cut in the opposite
direction to the disc rotation. If you cut in the same direction as the disc rotation the disc
may push itself out of the cut slot.
5. When cutting very hard material best results can be achieved with a diamond disc.
6. When using a diamond disc it will become very hot. If this happens you will see a full ring of
sparks around the rotating disc. Stop cutting and allow to cool at no load speed for 2-3 minutes.
7. Always ensure the workpiece is firmly held or clamped to prevent movement.
