Handling a Rotary Grinder

Video Transcript

"Hi, my name is Danny and I'm from Tampa and on behalf of Expert Village I'm going to teach how to use and maintain a rotary grinder. Now I'm going to be talking about using this. When you use it if you are using there is the flat disc or let's say a grinding wheel. You want to hold it firmly with one hand so if you are holding it with your right hand you want to hold it like that. If you want to hold like this but you want to make sure when you are grinding you are holding it down and you want to blow the sparks away from you. You don't want to blow the sparks on you. Usually when you have the cut off wheel you want to blow the sparks away from your face, away from your body. You usually want to shoot the sparks down so you would be holding it like this and you would be spraying the sparks down. You don't want to spray them up or out at somebody else. You want to make sure that you are all clear. So you want to have a firm grip on this so you don't, so it does not grab any and you don't loose control of it. Because it would shoot out of our hand. "
