Why do you show examples with the guard of the angle grinder removed when using a zip disk? Isn't this unsafe, and not really necessary in that scenario?

[@GreggDistributorsLP]

Although it is common for those working in the field to remove the guard on an angle grinder, you should always be safe and attach the guard at all times for safety. Those examples were just for demonstration reasons for the discs themselves, however they were not videos created by Gregg Distributors. Always read the safety instructions on your grinders and refer to the safety section of this video if you require additional information on the proper safety PPE required to operate the machine.
