Wheels are suited for small cut-off and shallow
notching operations only. Always handle wheels
carefully to avoid damage. Before installing any
wheel, always inspect it for cracks. If wheel is
cracked, discard it to prevent others from using it.
Care of Grinding & Cut-Off Wheels
Grinding/cut-off wheels should be protected from:
• wetness and extreme humidity
• any type of solvent
• extreme changes in temperature
• dropping and bumping
Grinding and cut-off wheels should be stored:
• in an organised way so wheels can be removed
without disturbing or damaging other wheels
• with their safety information
• Grinding and cut-off wheels should NOT be
dropped, rolled or bumped. Discard wheels that
have been dropped, rolled, bumped, subjected to
extreme changes in temperature, or come into
contact with solvents or wetness.

purpose discs for most metal jobs. Best for
cold-rolled steel, stainless steel or metals requiring
tough, fast cutting, long lasting abrasives.
