How to Use a Cut-Off Wheel
Portable cut-off wheels are among the main everyday
bonded abrasive products in use. The cut off wheel for drill
can be found everywhere, from metal fabrication shops to
homeowners’ garages; these wheels are very safe when
used correctly. However, accidents have occurred due to
misuse and abuse of those wheels.
Tips For Using a Cut-Off Wheel
• Wear the right personal protective equipment (PPE).
Required PPE is safety glasses alongside goggles or a
face shield. Wear other PPE as needed, like gloves, dust
mask, apron, etc.
• Check the wheels for cracks or damage before using
them.
• Check machine speed and mark the utmost operating
speed.
• Mount portable cut-off wheels with proper flanges.
• Position the wheel guard so that it stands between the
operator and, therefore, the wheel.
• Replace damaged wheel guards.
