I have a Pro Tec 115mm diamond cutting wheel; bought it a couple of days ago for £2.75 from a local hardware shop. It says on the packet to put the wheel on in the direction of the arrows. Yes ok. Now the arrows indicating direction of spin are on one side with some writing. ie size of wheel etc. So that means writing side up as it is placed on the spigot of the grinder.
Would there be any harm done if the wheel was placed the other way round? I noticed it seemed to cut better this way, or was it my imagination? Also I noticed that the blades were going a reddy blue in colour....burning I guess. Is that a sign of poor quality or too much pressure or? BTW, I am using it to cut concrete 50mm paving flags.
Thanks
