Grinding clean & strip discs

Some tools can become truly multi-functional when used with replacement accessories which are quite inexpensive. For example, if you buy several different grinding wheels, you’ll be able to use your grinder both for polishing different surfaces and for cutting materials.

Types of grinding wheels

Accessories differ in diameter and thickness. By purpose, they can be divided into the following types:

• Cut off wheels. These are coarse items used, in particular, for cutting metal parts.
• Sanding and polishing wheels. Might have a working surface made of felt or other soft material. Often used in combination with special chemical agents to make the surface of a workpiece smooth. For instance, this kind of tools is used to polish the paint on the car body.
• Fine grinding wheels. Used for rough treatment of metal surfaces, for example, for cleaning welds. Besides, with their help, you can sharpen the blades of other tools for car maintenance.

Maintenance tips

1. Fit the tool with the wheels only if their sizes correspond to recommended by the manufacturer. Violating this rule might result in damaging the wheel and injuries.
2. Protect your eyes and skin from particles of the processed material.
3. While polishing the car body, make sure the surfaces don’t get too hot. High temperature can cause structural changes and colour alterations in the coating.
4. It is not recommended to use thin wheels to cut thick metal elements. You can get injured or your power tool might be damaged.
