DESCRIPTION
Angle Grinders – Safety Talk
The injuries resulting from the use of angle grinders are caused by:
• particles being thrown out from the grinding work;
• the grinding wheel breaking up or shattering; and
• contact between a revolving wheel and a person?s hand or another part of the body.
The most serious injuries involving angle grinders and abrasive wheels occur when the wheel shatters
and flying fragments strike the operator or people who are close by. In some cases this has resulted in a fatality when a person has had an artery severed by a flying piece of the wheel.
