Instruction Manual
The precision of diamond and CBN cut-off wheels and thus the cut
depends on how carefully the following instructions are observed:
Never expose the cut-off wheel to overload, such as heavy
mechanical load, or heat.
Store the cut-off wheel in a dry place, horizontally on a plane
support, preferably under light pressure.
A clean and dry cut-off wheel does not corrode. Therefore, clean
and dry the cut-off wheel before storing. If possible, use ordinary
detergents for the cleaning.
Regular dressing of the cut-off wheel is also part of the general
maintenance (see ADVANCED OPERATIONS).
These cut-off wheels are sensitive to humidity. Therefore, do not mix
new, dry cut-off wheels and used, humid ones. Store the cut-off
wheels in a dry place, horizontally on a plane support.
