Mounting /Removing
Wheel
Before mounting a grinding wheel (new or used),
perform the following procedures:
• Wheel Inspection (Page 26)
• Ring Test (Page 26)
• Wheel Balancing (Page 27)
Do not use a wheel that is suspected of having
cracks, or if you can see chips, nicks, or dents in
the wheel surface. These conditions can lead to
wheel failure where the wheel flies apart at oper-
ating speed. Always be sure to use a wheel that
is rated for operating at speeds of at least 3450
RPM.
