2. Check machine speeds against maximum operating speed of the wheel.
3. Be sure that the wheel bore, threaded or unthreaded, fits machine arbor properly and that
flanges are clean, flat, and of the proper type for the wheel you are mounting.
4. Run the wheel in a protected area at least one minute before grinding.
5. Wheels must be properly guarded.
6. Wear protective safety glasses or a proper face shield.
7. Do not use wheels which have been dropped or otherwise damaged.
8. Do not use excessive pressure when mounting wheels between flang es. Tighten nut
sufficiently to hold wheel firmly.
9. Do not use heavy side grinding pressure on any Type 1 straight sided wheel.
10. Do not mount more than one wheel on a single arbor.
