2. Apply minimum pressure to the work surface, allowing the tool
to operate at high speed. Grinding rate is greatest when the tool
operates at high speed.
3. Position yourself so that the open-underside of the wheel is
facing away from you.
4. 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. Edge grinding
wheels are not designed to withstand side pressures caused by
bending.
5. Remove the tool from the work surface before turning the tool off.
Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying it down.
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.
SURFACE FINISHING WITH SANDING FLAP DISCS (FIG. 11)
1. Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool to the
work surface.
2. Apply minimum pressure to work surface, allowing the tool to
operate at high speed. Sanding rate is greatest when the tool
operates at high speed.
3. Maintain a 5˚ to 10˚ angle between the
tool and work surface.
4. Continuously move the tool in a forward
and back motion to avoid creating
gouges in the work surface.
5. Remove the tool from work surface before turning tool off. Allow
the tool to stop rotating before laying it down.
MOUNTING SANDING BACKING PADS (FIG. 12)
CAUTION: Proper guard must be
reinstalled for grinding wheel, sanding
flap disc, wire brush or wire wheel
applications after sanding applications
are complete.
1. Place or appropriately thread backing
pad (O) on the spindle.
2. Place the sanding disc (P) on the
backing pad.
3. While depressing spindle lock, thread
clamp nut (F) on spindle, piloting the
raised hub on the clamp nut into the center of san ding disc and
backing pad.
4. Tighten the clamp nut by hand. Then depress the spindle lock
button while turning the sanding disc until the sanding disc and
clamp nut are snug.
5. To remove the wheel, grasp and turn the backing pad and
sanding pad while depressing the spindle lock button.
USING SANDING BACKING PADS (FIG. 13)
Choose the proper grit sandpaper for your application. Sandpaper
is available in various grits. Coarse grits yield faster material removal

rates and a rougher finish. Finer grits yield slower material removal
and a smoother finish.
Begin with coarse grit discs for fast, rough material removal. Move
5˚–10˚
to a medium grit paper and finish with a fine grit disc for optimal
finish.
