Safety precautions when working
with abrasive discs for metal

Be sure to wear safety glasses to protect your eyes from sparks and metal particles, and wear headphones or active noise-canceling headphones to protect your hearing from noise.

Before starting work, make sure that the abrasive disc is securely attached to the tool (for example, a grinder) and is correctly installed in the direction of rotation.

Before turning on the tool, check it for damage, cracks or other defects. Do not use a damaged tool.

When working with an abrasive disc, do not press hard on it. The disk should move freely over the metal surface with minimal pressure.

Do not use the abrasive disc on materials other than metal. Avoid an incorrect angle of attack to avoid causing cracks or breakage of the disc.

When working with an abrasive disc, be aware of sparks and dust that may occur. Make sure you are in a well-ventilated area or use special dust collection equipment.

Use Appropriate Tools: When working with an abrasive wheel, use special clamps, stops or clamping devices to reduce the risk of movement or shifting of the metal workpiece.

Do not overheat the abrasive disc. If the disc becomes hot, stop operation and allow it to cool before continuing operation.

After finishing the job, allow the abrasive disc to cool completely and remove any dust from the surface before removing or storing it.
