outside diameter and support areas - Ensure wheel guard is in place
- Ensure that arbor hole of abrasives matches the power tool in use
- Ensure permissible RPM on wheels is above max. RPM of power tool
- Ensure power tool is fully disconnected from power source before wheel
replacement - Ensure no loose items are left near work piece and on the floor that may obstruct or distract user from work

Mounting System
The mounting system is a decisive factor for the safe use of the AUWELD-tools. Two flanges clamping a grinding tool must always have the same outside diameter and support area.
