Safe Work Practice

Portable Grinders

Abrasive wheels can cause severe injury. Proper storage, use and maintenance of
wheels must be observed.

1. Familiarize yourself with the grinder operation before commencing work.

2. Ensure proper guards are in place.

3. Never exceed the maximum wheel speed RPM (every wheel is marked).

4. Check the speed marked on the wheel and compare it to the speed on the
grinder.

5. When installing the wheel, check for cracks and defects. Ensure mounting
flanges are clean and the mounting blotters are used. Do not over tighten
the mounting nut.

6. Before grinding, run the newly mounted wheel at operating speed, checking
for vibration.

7. Do not use grinders near flammable materials.

8. Never use the grinder for jobs it is not designed for, such as cutting.

9. Wear CSA-approved personal protective equipment including eye, face,


hand, foot, and hearing protection.

For further information, see the appropriate current Occupational Health & Safety
Legislation.
