USING TYPE 1 OR TYPE 41 CUTTING WHEELS
i_ WARNING: Do not use edge grinding/cutting wheels for surface
grinding applications because these wheels are not designed for side
pressures encountered with surface grinding. Wheel breakage and
injury may result.
1. Allow tool to reach full speed before touching tool to work
surface.
2. Apply minimum pressure to work surface, allowing tool to operate
at high speed. Cutting rate is greatest when the tool operates at
high speed.
3. Once a cut is begun and a notch is established in the workpiece,
do not change the angle of the cut. Changing the angle will cause
the wheel to bend and may cause wheel breakage.
4. Remove the tool from work surface before turning tool off. Allow
the tool to stop rotating before setting it down.
