Angle grinder safety tips
April 26, 2022
An angle grinder is a tool with many uses. You must be cautious when using one because of the fast wheel and consider the following tips:
- When gripping the side handle look at where your fingers are because they are kind of close to the blade.
- If cutting metal then don’t turn the wheel or bend it because it might break and fly apart.
- When surface grinding, hold the tool at about a 20 to 30 degree angle and keep it moving around to prevent gouges.
- Never carry the grinder with your finger on the switch because just one slight push might turn it on.
Remember these tips and read the manual before using the tool.
