An angle grinder is commonly used for cutting, edging, grinding and polishing jobs. It utilises a spinning wheel to which you can attach an abrasive, or polishing disc. You can grind welds, remove rust, and can even sharpen other tools with the quickly rotating disc.

• Choose the right disc for the right job to avoid damaging either the tool or the surface you’re grinding.
• Securely attach the disc according to manufacturer guidelines.
• Hold the grinder firmly in two hands. If not held securely, angle grinders can easily run away from you, causing damage.
• Turn the angle grinder on and allow it to reach full speed before beginning.
• Use slow and deliberate movements while cutting or grinding. 
• Don’t over-exert pressure on the angel grinder. This can lead to overheating or damaging the disc.
• Protect yourself from sparks or other debris which may shoot off during the process.
• Once complete, switch the grinder off and allow it to come to a complete stop before you touch the disc tool.

• Metal: An angle grinder is commonly used for cutting metal pipes, rods, and sheets, and removing metal welds.
• Masonry: You can cut through materials like bricks, concrete, and stone with an angle grinder.
• Tiles: Angle grinders are useful for cutting ceramic or porcelain tiles to specific lengths.
• Plastics: It can cut through different types of plastics, such as PVC or acrylic.

Always ensure you’re using the right disc for the right job.
