Typical Applications
A large variety of accessories are available for
applications such as grinding, sanding, and cutting.
Grinding/Sanding
Use sanding and grinding accessories that are:
less than 55 mm in diameter.
• correct accessory type and grit for the job.
• rated at or above the RPM listed on the tool's
nameplate.
Wheel Brushes
Wire wheel brushes are useful for removing rust,
scale, burrs, weld slag, etc. A wide variety of wire
brushes are available for many applications. When
applying brush to work, avoid using too much
for
pressure. This causes over-bending of wires and
heat build-up resulting in premature wire breakage,
rapid dulling and reduced brush life. Instead of
using more pressure, try a wire wheel brush with
more aggressive cutting action (increased wire size,
decreased wire length or different brush type, i.e.
knot type instead of crimped wire type).
Cutting
Always handle cutting wheels carefully to avoid
damage. Before installing any wheel, always in-
spect it for cracks. If wheel is cracked, discard it to
prevent others from using it. Cutting wheels should
be protected from:
• wetness and extreme humidity
• any type of solvent
• extreme changes in temperature
• dropping and bumping
If a cutting wheel encounters any of these situations,
discard the wheel immediately.
WARNING
