Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure your angle grinder is unplugged and completely powered off.
- Identify the correct thread size on your angle grinder (M14 x 2 for this brush).
- Carefully screw the wire brush onto the grinder's spindle until it is securely seated. Do not overtighten.
- Crucially, wear appropriate safety gear: safety glasses or a full face shield, gloves, and hearing protection.
- Start the grinder at a low speed and gradually increase to the maximum recommended speed of 1000rpm.
Compatibility:
This brush is designed for angle grinders with an M14 x 2 thread mounting. It is compatible with most 4-1/2" and 9" angle grinders that feature this standard thread size.
Care:
- After use, allow the brush to cool down before cleaning or storage.
- Inspect the brush regularly for loose or broken wires. Discard if significant damage is present.
- Store in a dry place to prevent rust on the steel wires.
- Never use the brush if any wires appear to be missing or severely bent, as this can lead to dangerous projection of debris.
