Begin with coarse grit discs for fast, rough material removal. Move to a medium grit paper and finish with a fine grit disc for optimal finish.
Coarse | 16 - 30 grit |
Medium | 36 - 80 grit |
Fine Finishing | 100 - 120 grit |
Very Fine Finishing | 150 - 180 grit |
1.Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching 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 15˚ angle between |
|
| the tool and work surface. The san- |
|
| ding disc should contact approximately |
|
| one inch of work surface. | |
4. | Move the tool constantly in a straight |
|
| line to prevent burning and swirling |
|
| of work surface. Allowing the tool to rest on the work surface | |
| without moving, or moving the tool in a circular motion causes | |
| burning and swirling marks on 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 and Using Wire Brushes and Wire Wheels
Wire cup brushes or wire wheels screw directly on the grinder spindle without the use of flanges. Use only wire brushes or wheels provided with a
CAUTION: Wear work gloves when handling wire brushes and wheels. They can become sharp.
CAUTION: Wheel or brush must not touch guard when mounted or while in use. Undetectable damage could occur to the accessory, causing wires to fragment from accessory wheel or cup.
MOUNTING WIRE BRUSHES AND WIRE WHEELS
WARNING: Turn off and unplug the tool before making any adjustments or removing or installing attachments or acces- sories. Before reconnecting the tool, turn the switch on and off as previously described to ensure that the tool is off.
1.Thread the wheel on the spindle by hand.
2.Depress spindle lock button and use a wrench on the hub of the wire wheel or brush to tighten the wheel.
3.To remove the wheel, reverse the above procedure.
CAUTION: Failure to properly seat the wheel hub before turning the tool on may result in damage to tool or wheel.
USING WIRE CUP BRUSHES AND WIRE WHEELS
Wire wheels and brushes can be used for removing rust, scale and paint, and for smoothing irregular surfaces.
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. Material removal rate is greatest when the tool operates at high speed.
3. Maintain a 5˚ to 10˚ angle between the
tool and work surface for wire cup brushes.
4. Maintain contact between the edge of the wheel and the work surface with
wire wheels.
5.Continuously move the tool in a forward and backward motion to avoid creating gouges in the work surface. Allowing the tool to rest on the work surface without moving, or moving the tool in a circular motion causes burning and swirling marks on the work surface.
