Perfect instructional video for us novices and even those who grew up with a power tool in their crib and think they know it all !
Very helpful for me as a complete beginner. Thank you!
very professional. I am a cutting wheel production factory, and I also have to cut stainless steel and common metal cutting tests every day！These devices are essential
Thanks man i didnt knkw not to start it when its stuck. Grinder always intimidated me
As a beginner, this vid gave me valuable information. Ciear n Good oration. Thank you.
Thank you for this video! I am going to attempt to use a similar grinder to remove some welds. Thank you for getting to the point quickly and thank you for the demonstration too… wish me luck…. I have never used a grinder before
Great info, thanks a lot
This is the video I showed my son. Excellent!
Good safety brief. At 10k - 20k rpm, the wheel is incredibly fragile and I've seen them turn into a radial shotgun.
This happened to me and I was screamed when It happened but pleasantly surprised that it hurts less than getting a shot tbh if felt like cardboard getting thrown at me....idk if I got very lucky or we are afraid of this for no reason
What rpm is the best?
Based on his comment.. probably a 9999 RPM is in the safe zone 👍🏼
Great video. Thank you.
Thank you for this video. I have a barn door track that i wanted to cut with my angle grinder... this helped me prepare properly to be safe!
Glad it helped! Good luck cutting the track.
Smart advice. Thanks for sharing! 👍
Very helpful thanks
Thanks for the video!
Muchas gracias Gumaro!
Very well done.
Thank you!
Thank you, good video.
Am learning...as a beginner...
Informative
Your video is very well done and very informative. Thank you
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the comment.
As an educator, should you be using a Type 27 guard with the Type 41/1 cutting wheel?
Hi Patrick. Good call. We’ve been using the guard that comes with the grinder, but after some confirmation research we agree that the correct guard to use with a type 1 cutting disc is a type 1 guard. We’ll re-edit to show the correct guard and also ensure that the proper guard is being used when cutting in our shop. Thanks again for correcting the record.
Good catch - I just bought an angle grinder specifically for cutting - just realized I need to order a Type 1 double sided guard.
Thank you sir.
Thank u sir
Thank you Sir
Good video Gumaro! Thank you!

Very good video thanks for sharing very educational information and good explanation
Glad it was helpful!
Hello there, very good informative video. A quick question is it mandatory to put metal cutting disc printed/labelled side facing the power tool or it doesn't matter unless other specific instruction are on place?
Thank You.
Hi Iliyan. Good question. We did some digging on this and asked our experienced welders. The short answer is no. If the manufacturer doesn't specify, then there is no rule about which side the label should face. Thanks for asking.
I can't necessarily find an exact video on the question I have to ask. But is there a possible way that you can get the shavings out of clothes I didn't have an apron at the time I needed to grind a pipe
I'll try anything besides washing it done that plenty of times it's not a lot but it does sometimes irritate my skin
Good
I would add that when something flys off a spinning disc, cutting disc or engine flywheel or ..., it travels in the plane of the disc. The position that gives you the best view often isn't the safest when things go wrong. Practise working without putting yourself, especially face, in the plane of the disc.
I love this video man really educational and professional.. But I can't help but hearing that Chicano voice specially at the end. You had added fool at the end 😂🙌👌

I purchased the Bosch GWS8-45 grinder and it says in the manual, that it’s not meant for cutting. Is this true? I thought all angle grinders do cutting with a cutting wheel.
I also noiticed that there was no mention as to which way to install cutoff disc on the grinder.
Which way do you do it?
I'm a novice and right-handed. When cutting metal, instinctively I grasp the side handle with my left hand and the angle grinder with my right hand. That way I find it very comfortable inasmuch as the splinters fly away from my body. The risk is that the tool tends to kick back, but I can cautiously manage it. My question is: Are there any potential risks using the power tool that way? I'm very concerned because I see that no one else handle the tool my way! Thank you!
Hi. Thanks for the question. Angle grinders have handles that can be moved to a right or left orientation, so your position on the handle doesn't tell us whether you are using it safely. What matters is that the disc rotates towards the material and not you (the operator). Rotating in the direction of the operator is a safety hazard because of the risk to the operator if the disc slips or breaks. If you're unsure which direction the disc is rotating, you can check the directional arrow on the grinder head. Hope that helps.
If the angle grinder is kicking in to you, you need to flip the grinder over and put the handle on the other side. You want the sparks coming in your direction so that if the disc binds it will send the grinder forward and out of your hands not into you. Obviously you need to stand to the side so that the sparks aren't going directly at you.
Our technology today is way too advanced to still be using one of these. You know good and Dang well that can make something a lot easier and less dangerous
Absolutely but that comes with cost^^
Didnt say how far down in size you can allow the disc to get, before become high risk for safety.
In my country there is no press on kill switch on angle grinder instead we have on off switch in back
Almost like having a father. Thanks
What type of clamp is holding the metal to table?
Hi Michael. That's a vise grip locking c-clamp.
I found this video while searching for how to hold the tool. You didn't mention it, but are you right-handed? Do we hold the handle with our dominant hand, not the tool body?
Hi Mik. Gumaro is right handed and is using his right hand to hold the grinder handle in this video. Which hand you use on the handle/body comes down to comfort and personal preference, though we've found people generally prefer to use their right hand to grip the body because it makes it easier to avoid the sparks. Good question!
@@ASCProcessSystems Great. Thank you!
I'm right handed, but I use my right hand for the trigger and left hand for the body. I like that position because it is easier to see the cut and manipulate the tool; however, it is not the safest position because your body is positioned in the area of the most Sparks or the blast area if the disc breaks. I try to grind using left hand on trigger and right hand on body, but I find I can't see my cut line as well and I can't manipulate it as accurately because I am not used to it. I would say if starting out, learn to grind so the grinder is the the left side of.your body so you're not eating Sparks.

Sweet now I’m less afraid to use my spinny death machine at work
New to this type of tool, not wanting to be injured. Tool info indicates that a Type 1 flat cut-off wheel (As opposed to a Type 47 depressed/recessed.) can not be used because it is too close to the guard and may strike and shatter if it flexes and that the guard needs to be changed to one with a front shield. I see you and others do not follow this. The tools do not include the cut-off guard and some don't even offer them as an option. Have you seen this in the manuals?
Hi. Good question and observation. You're right that a type 1 cutting disc needs to be used with a type 1 guard. This is because these discs are used on their edge, unlike other discs (e.g. type 27), which are used on their side. When used on the edge, both sides of the disc are exposed, so a guard is needed to cover both sides. This is covered in the manual for the grinder we use, which is a Dewalt D28402.
Our experience is that manufacturers typically do not include a type 1 guard with the grinder. They offer it as an accessory, which needs to be purchased separately. We didn't know that at the time we made this video, which is why we didn't address type 1 guards. We are making a new video that will address that issue. Thanks for your comment, and good luck using your new grinder safely!
A cut wheel on a grinder is the only setup, that even after years of use, I respect the most of all tools. A disc breaking at 10 or 13,000 RPM is something to fear, not respect. Wear your gloves, a thick jacket and a face shield EVERY time you use one of those. And never EVER use a disk that is no longer uniform.
The subtitles says “Hi, my name is Goo Butter….”
Just a fun note.
Pretty good but you are using the wrong guard for a cut off wheel. I also like to mention when teaching about cut off wheels that you should never use the side of the wheel for grinding.
You got everything except for telling them how to put the blade on the grinder, which way it goes... and the flange 🤔
“ GREAT AFTER YOU PUT YOUR PEE PEE ON!”
Don't forget to put your pipi on 😅
