    One of the most versatile tools in the tool box. Please do not remove the safety features on your Angle Grinder. This will increase the tools effectiveness, but possible injuries will also increase. Good leather gloves is a must when using this tool, and eye/ face protection are what I use, which is required to keep a pretty face and limb protection.

    SAFETY and PROPER USE ARE THE KEYS TO SUCCESS and you'll learn it here. okay. never used angle grinder before, though I have used power tools, and been hurt by two because I lost concentration for less than one second each time. almost cut my hand in half in one incident, sewed up by excellent doc, but nerve damage for 25 years so far. so, I watched this video CAREFULLY and gobbled up the comments regarding safety, too. then I went to work. this video was an excellent introduction to the angle grinder, and the comments were of enormous value. if you are a novice with this tool, no matter how many other tools you've used, take your time absorbing the info here. It's not a lot, but you'll end up with ten fingers, which you might like to take advantage of to give this video and the commentators two high fives. my job's done, I'm unhurt and happy to have learned how to use this powerful (say it again) powerful and incredibly useful tool.

    I had a lot of old pipes and rebar to cut up and from what I read kzread.infoUgkxPDBfLu68o58Aw85O_J-zIFfjJARBhp-3 this would be the tool for the job. Since I had never used one, I watched a couple of youtube videos and I'm so glad I did. Some really good safety tips, which I followed, and this tool did a splendid job. One good thing to know is the weight of the tool puts just about the right amount of pressure on the metal I was cutting, so I didn't have to use a lot of pressure, which is more likely to jam the tool. It made fast work of my job.

    Manufacturers of electric tools always tell you to unplug one before you make any changes. (For example, changing the sanding belt, bit, or blade.) I never do. Except on this tool. I religiously unplug it before making any adjustments whatsoever. The number of times I've chucked up the wrench and hit the "on" switch instead of the lock button.... I don't even like to think about it.

    Great video. I m an Aussie who worked in construction for a long time and still do a bit of work every few weeks. I 've cut up a lot of steel. All your tips are spot on. Angle grinders are not toys and must be used responsibly. Always use PPE, correct gloves, proper eye protection, glasses/goggles. Steel capped boots, or at least think leather boots. Ear muffs better to use also for those cutting on a regular basis.

    My advice to new DIYers is that if it is your first time try to buy a weak or mini angle grinder and when you built your confidence you can go for higher amps and strong one , I have two angle grinders one cheap Chinese 10 dollars one and the other in Metabo , Believe me I carry all of my works with the cheap one . But the cheap one also is bad because the plastic is getting brittle and brakes cause danger , still I am not reach to that stage yet , also do not use your angle grinder for a long time continuously and not to forget your fatigue point that the brain get tired .

    Hi Jerry. I'm also a new user. A guy left this at the job-site, and I picked it up. I'm using it for...well the 2nd time, but the 1st time was way back in 2009 & I didn't have any eye/ear/hand/sleeve protections in place as I will today. I'm cutting an aluminum door guard...the one at the bottom of most doors. This is a mobile home, but the same is used on regular homes that have a wooden door. It's about a "1-mm" thick piece of aluminum, attached to the floor with screws & the screws are out. I installed this years ago, and I did it for life, so the inside frame at the bottom is holding & depressing this to hold in place...even after the screws came out...that's how perfect I figure things. I bought a metal-grinder bit-wheel -the smaller one. The carpet is still in place & it's glued down without any ease in removing it. I bent it a little to try & lift it up, but it wouldn't budge. Wish me luck!

    Please check this with a professional and experienced metal worker ( I am neither). It's the direction of the spin of the disc that is very important I understand.. if it is spinning against the operator.. That is safer in case the grinder slips out of hand.. It moves Away from the operator. If it moves toward the operator.. It's extremely dangerous! It's more of safety takes precedence over comfort using a dominant hand. All the best, be safe

    1:14 I realize it's just like spinning car wheels while the car doesn't move. So spinning car wheels due to high speed is bad but with an angle grinder is just what you want. You don't want to go slow because then the angle grinder is getting traction and injuries are likely to happen. In the car analogy starting off slow is important to prevent slipping and ruin the wheels.

    That made sense to me! When you start a car from stationery you don't want to be revving too hard straight away because the wheels will just turn and squeal and you won't move anywhere until they have got traction. You don't want traction on an angle grinder because that's what causes it to snag, so start off with fast speed straight away and move steadily through whatever you are cutting to avoid snagging, am I right?

    I am aright handed person, while cutting metal tubes or strips, i turn the angle grinder with the disc facing towards my right side,the handle is in my left hand and the grinder body in my right, so the sparks flow straight ahead not on to my body, but i have been told thats wrong the sparks should be coming towards me , whats the correct method?

    Hi There - There are many tools that could work for this application - including an angle grinder if done with the proper technique. However, you may want to consider a die grinder with a thin cutoff wheel. Hope this helps!

    Hi Arvin, It is always better to use an angle grinder with the guard on; and it is always better to use an angle grinder with the side handle in place (either side depending on individual preference / comfort). We always suggest to read the manufacturers instructions before using a tool so you know all the safety precautions. Hope this helps!

    Always with guard no exceptions and the handle is up to personal choice, type of job and type of grinder, 7 and 9 inch grinders should always be used with a handle while 4.5 inch grinders can be used without provided you can firmly grasp the grinder around the body. When using a cutting/slitting or wire wheel or anything that is prone to snagging then I would use the handle for the extra grip.

    I can not recomand an angle grinder with a switch that you can lock in position, i have one of those (going into trash now) and i had it jump out ouf the cut i made, jumped out of my grip (i could not reach the switch anymore), cut me into the hip just milimeters away from vital blood vessels and started to eat my t-shit until i ripped it out of my shirt and pulled the plug, this was scary. And i was only working with a small 500Watts grinder. Also ALWAYS wear ear and eye protection and gloves! Please!

    All small grinders usually have those switches that lock into position as they're often held in unusual positions that don't allow a normal switch to be installed. I would recommend wearing overalls too as they're easier to avoid snagging.

    It is not the grinder, it is you. I will always recommend a grinder with a lock on switch, you have more fingers to actually grip and hold on to the grinder properly instead of having to keep the pressure on some switch with some of your fingers.

    @@paulmanzolillo9764 An angle grinder is actually a great tool for 45 degree cuts. Get some french chalk and an adjustable square as they have a 45 degree angle on them and mark out the 45 with a sharpened bit of chalk. Use a cut off disk as they make fantastic angled cuts. A 7 inch grinder with a cut off disk is actually a possible better choice for angled cuts than a 4.5 inch as they have a tendency not to wobble off the line as much as can cut through thicker materials. It's tricky to do those cuts however but once you do they'll almost look like a robot done them.

    They’re so cheap these days I don’t even bother changing wheels. I just have a dedicated one for different purposes. The people saying the cheap ones are garbage is simply not true. My first was $15 from harbor freight I picked up as a kid because I didn’t have much money…. Well 20 years later it’s still working perfectly. I have since mounted it on a jig amazon sells that converts it into a chop saw.
