Troubleshooting

The disc is cutting slowly or with difficulty.

Check the material being cut; ensure the disc is appropriate for the metal. Consider using cutting wax or lubricant, especially when cutting aluminum.

Excessive sparks are produced when cutting.

Ensure the correct feed force is being applied. Check the blade's condition; if worn, replace it.

The blade is not fitting properly on the grinder.

Verify the disc's bore size matches the grinder's arbor size (22.23mm). Contact DeWalt support if the issue persists.
