Abrasive wheels are commonly used for cutting, grinding, shaping, and finishing tasks across industrial, construction, maintenance, and workshop environments. When abrasive wheels are selected, mounted, inspected, or operated incorrectly, they can create serious risks such as wheel breakage, flying debris, contact injuries, and equipment-related incidents. This course covers abrasive wheel fundamentals, wheel characteristics, proper selection, safe mounting, grinding procedures, truing, dressing, balancing, common hazards, safety controls, inspections, and training responsibilities. Learners will develop awareness of how to identify abrasive wheel risks, choose suitable wheels, follow safe operating procedures, complete basic checks, and support safer workplace equipment practices. Certification is provided upon successful completion of the course.
