Introduction
The angle grinder is a portable electric grinder that uses an abrasive disc for grinding away material. They are available in different diameters, and size selection depends on the size of the job and amount of material to be removed. Angle grinders are used for grinding in position and are capable of rapidly removing large amounts of metal. There are also several attachments available for angle grinders to increase the versatility of this tool.
How to use it
Simply pull the trigger and place the grinder on the surface that needs to be ground.
Where to use it
Used extensively in the workshop and wherever site grinding is required. An extremely versatile power tool.
Maintenance
Grinding discs need frequent replacement.
OHS issues
These are extremely dangerous machines and should be used with care.
Safety glasses must be worn.
When changing a grinding disc check that the RPM rating of the new disc is not less than the RPM of the angle grinder. If they are rated slower, the grinding wheel could fail, throwing bits of grinding disc all over the workshop. Always wait until the wheel has stopped before putting the grinder down. On starting, hold the grinder tight as it produces a large amount of kick.
