Thank you so much for such excellent video. I just got today my first angle grinder from HF and despite seeing 7-8 videos, NONE of them explained as clear as you did on how to attach the different disks, paying attention to the flange nut orientation plus emphasizing on safety at the same time. Awesome. These prior KZreadrs should learn from you on how to make an excellent set up video. Just subscribed. Bravo Zulu!🙂

Thank you, for excellent, clear, simple, display & explanation.

Exactly what a first time user is looking for. Thank you

Excellent presentation with valuable information for inexperienced grinding wheel opertors like myself. This was very helpful and probably prevented me from injuring myself or others. Many thanks!

Straight and to the point. Thanks.

Hey Rob thanks so much for explaining how to put on a disc with an arbor nut already attached I have been looking for a video that explains that . Awesome

Super helpful, exactly what I needed! I was having a loosely spinning blade, turns out the dimpled nut was facing the wrong direction. Thank you for the help!

Reeeeespect. Straight to the point and thorough. 🙏 answered all my thoughts and concerns

Instruction was clear as glass. Thank you.

shims are glorified washers and nuts are nuts, got it. on a real note thank you for this video, learned a lot!

Good one👍

You are using a type 27 guard with type 1 wheels. That is why you are using washers are shims. You need to swap out the guard to a type 1 guard to use type 1 blades. Once you do that you will be a lot safer and you don't need to use any washers as shims

This video is exactly what I needed man thank you

New to angle grinding and this really helped to show the different configurations of media, arbor size and retaining nuts. That was confusing for me. Thank you!

Very clear and right to the point. Thank you

Thank you for explaining that lock-button

Thanks for your tutorial. Its was very helpful for a beginner like me.

Great work. Best video I’ve seen.

Thank you for the video it's useful information and explanation was crystal clear

Thanks Rob, great explanation

What a great vid. Very well explained.

GREAT PRESENTATION. THANK YOU!

Just to let yall know I'm the one who's been stealing the grinder nuts❤

Thanks man. I have some cutting to do on a flat bar with type 27 and I plan to go full MAGA on the bar with my Dewalt D28402 and type 27 disc.

Very helpful tips 👍

I learned some good stuff about grinders.

The first thing imma use my angle grinder for is to cut my cars aftermarket plastic sideskirts shorter. I bought a metal cutting wheel... I think it might have been overkill but i might need it in the future. Wish I had a garage. Really sucks to be doing projects in my apt living room. But anyways thanks for the info

Great video. Thanks!!!

Brilliant info thanks

AWSOME TEACHING👍, NOW I KNOW HOW TO CHANGE MY DISC, THE RIGHT WAY 😎

Thank you for this, I am also a newbie, using a cutting wheel and couldn’t get the disc to not spin, the directions of the tool indicated one way only to use the arbor nut but since it was thin it would spin, flipped it over and tight and ready to rock. Just got to keep the fingers intact now or the wife will kill me.

Super helpful! Thanks

Great video 👍

Very concise, thorough and precise. Thank you, indeed.

best video on the subject.

Thank you it help me in my assignment

Thank you very much!!!

Excellent video. I have one thin wavy/fragile looking circle piece you did not address. Any clue as to what that is? I have never used a grinder. Just using it to polish with 4” felt polishing wheels.

raised shim and raised nut for thick disc, right? i mean, from what i understand in 3:09, to maintain the think disc, i need to place a bulky side to support the hole size

great video for beginners

Great video

Can u fit 100mm disc to a 125mm grinder

Thank you huge help

yeah thanks man, i was worried putting that in unthreaded grinder on cause the nut just wasn’t secure enough for my comfort

Great vid

Thank you!

Does that wrench have any use at all or is it just there to take up space? Thanks for the video.

Nice explanation

I'm new to angle grinders, so the video was very helpful to me. Thank you! Edit: At 4:26 you take what looks like a common flat washer, and call it a shim. You put it under the usual shim that has the square recessed notches on one side, which transfers the spin of the arbor to the wheel. Two questions for anyone who knows angle grinders: [1] Where does one get that "flat washer" shim? (The hole in an SAE 5/8" washer is actually too large.) [2] A flat washer-like shim does not have the recessed notches that lock in, so what keeps the cutting/grinding disk from slowing down or failing to spin properly?

I was thinking the same thing and also a new user. I'm guessing there must be an adapter available just for this purpose. Otherwise a flat washer could be modified with groves or nothes using the angle grinder [I think].

Don't. Adding a shim to move the wheel down is not necessary. This is the first time that I've seen someone think it is necessary or desirable. That said, you can purchase a spacer if you measure the shaft diameter. But the fact that you cannot find "grinder spacer" should cause you to wonder about the necessity, given the fact that there are hundreds of millions of the grinders in use worldwide. Conversely, if you deem them the next most popular addition to the grinder, setup your tooling and mass produce them.

You probably figured this out by now, but that unthreaded washer he calls a shim comes with every grinder you buy.

@@tamaica7770 Why do you think you need it? Does something not work? I've never needed to add a washer/spacer to my grinders, or any that I've used. Remember: safety first. Use equipment modifications engineered for the grinder you're using.

Please provide safety operations of this angle grinder. Thanks

Thank you

My arbor nut keeps spinning off even though I hold down the spindle lock and use the tool to tighten it. Scares me to death. I was using a diamond cutting wheel on a 3"x .25" piece of marble with only the two nuts (above and below the blade) the tool came with. Is it simply not tight enough? They aren't supposed to unscrew as the blade turns.

Check the orientation of the bottom spacer and the nut. Typically you want the bottom spacer to have the raised rim facing out from the tool (registering the hole in your wheel on center). Then make sure the nut has the raised rim also facing out away from the disc. There should be a slight depression on one side of the nut to avoid bottoming out on your bottom spacer and bypassing the disc. Diamond wheels tend to be thin, and I suppose it is possible for a no-name import grinder to not have enough clearance to bite down on the disc, but I’d be very surprised if that was the case. Bottom line: any disc you put on the grinder should only spin with the tool’s arbor when properly installed. And yes, it should only get tighter as the tool engages the work. If the disk is rattling free while in use, something is not right and you will need to sort it out before using it safely.

I bought a cutting wheel and it came with 2 washers. Not sure if I need them, they seem redundant as the wheel size fits snug with the size of my arbor. Any thoughts ?

@robdamico5304

They might be spacers to fit different size arbors than yours. The inner rim of the wheel should fit a feature on your arbor nut or the existing spacer that came with the grinder. It shouldn't ride directly on the threads of the arbor. If it fits snug and runs without vibration, you are probably good to go. Just be sure to wear your safety gear. I always wear a face shield when using a cutoff wheel on a grinder. They have a tendency to shatter if you run them wrong, so keep that guard on and stay safe!

I don’t get how you placed a silver washer? Just underneath the shim ? Not saying that is wrong ! But looks unusual & safe 😨

THANK YOU

yay

Thanks for the video. So is it acceptable if the sanding dick comes out closer to the edge of the guard?

Thanks.. should've watched this before spending half an hour f'ing around with a vice

I learned how to use one in 5 minutes at work from a specialist, guys like my dad now. I do large amounts of grinding and welding.
