Operation
I
Hold the tool firmly. Turn the tool on and
then apply the wheel or disc to the work-
piece.
In general, keep the edge of the wheel or
disc at an angle of about 1 5 O to the work-
piece surface.
During the break-in period with a new wheel,
do not work the grinder in the B direction or
it will cut into the workpiece. Once the edge
of the wheel has been rounded off by use,
the wheel may be worked in both A and B
directions.

WARNING:
It should never be necessary to force the tool. The weight of the tool applies adequate
pressure. Forcing and excessive pressure could cause dangerous wheel breakage.
Continued use of a worn-out wheel may result in wheel explosion and serious personal
injury. Depressed center wheel should not be used after
it
has been worn down to
1 15 mm (4-1 12") in diameter. Use of the wheel after this point is unsafe and
it
should
be removed from service and rendered unusable by intentional destruction.
