Helpful Hints
- Minimum of 1 hp for every 1" of wheel diameter
- Never exceed the recommended RPM for maximum performance and safety
- Most efficient cutting rate - use 2 to 3 seconds per square inch as a guideline
- Position materials for the slightest contact between the wheel and workpiece
- Flanges should be equal in diameter, recessed, and at least 1/3 the diameter of the wheel for wheels 12" or larger
Notes - Important
- Always use a guard and wear eye protection
- Always comply with ANSI B7.1 and OSHA regulations
- Never exceed the maximum rate speed marked on the wheels
- Never use a cracked, dropped, or damaged wheel
- Never force a wheel onto a machine or alter the size of the mounting hole
- Never use mounting flanges for Type 1 cut-off wheels unless they are 1/3 the diameter of the wheel and are clean, and flat
- Never overtighten the mounting nut
