Frequent and dangerous mistakes for working with a grinder for beginners

A grinder is an indispensable tool in construction, but if used improperly, it can cause harm, and some errors are fraught with serious consequences. When working with such a tool, it is imperative to observe safety precautions.

Before starting the application, it is important to carefully read the instructions that are included with the tool.

It is very important to properly prepare the grinder for work, it is at this stage that newcomers most often make mistakes. First of all, it is necessary to establish a circle that must exactly match the dimensions, since the motor of each grinder has a certain power. The smaller the size of the circle, the higher the speed of rotation it is able to work. If the circle is not selected correctly, then often this causes deformation of the nozzles and wear of the tool.

In order to avoid injuries during operation, it must be taken into account that discs must not be installed larger than those for which the tool is intended. The nozzles themselves should not be deformed, and in case of deformation, their further operation is prohibited. This rule applies even to nozzles that show slight damage or any deviation from the original shape. After the circle is fixed, it is recommended to check the tool in idle mode. For 30 seconds, the grinder should operate at maximum speed. If there are no extraneous sounds and vibrations, while the casing does not affect the disk, then you can begin to work.

Many beginners often violate safety rules. It is worth considering that when working with a grinder, the following is prohibited:

• Foreign objects entering the cutting area;
• Performing work without glasses, since even the slightest fragment can lead to serious eye problems;
• Open areas of the body. When working with a grinder, you need to choose such clothes so that the whole body is closed;
• Finding in the cutting direction;
• Badly fixed workpiece;
• Strong pressure on the grinder during cutting.

It is also not recommended to perform work with the grinder for a long time, as this can adversely affect the well-being of a person. Subject to all operating rules, this tool will not cause harm, while it can be used for many years.
