b. The guard must be securely attached to the power
tool and positioned for maximum safety, so
the least amount of wheel is exposed towards the
operator.
The guard helps to protect operator from
broken wheel fragments and accidental contact with
wheel and sparks that could ignite clothing.
c. Wheels must be used only for recommended
applications. For example: do not grind with
the side of cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels
are intended for peripheral grinding, side forces
applied to these wheels may cause them to shatter.
d. Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are
of correct size and shape for your selected wheel.
Proper wheel flanges support the wheel thus reducing
the possibility of wheel breakage. Flanges for cut-off
wheels may be different from grinding wheel flanges.
e. Do not use worn down wheels from larger power
tools.
Wheel intended for larger power tool is not
suitable for the higher speed of a smaller tool and may
burst.
