Keep these How-To's coming!

[@CorgiDaddy]

Hi Shannon, thanks for another informative video. I just used mine to cut some bolts that were too long, cut a rusted lock off and cut some metal support braces. Keep up with the nice content.

[@KevParlee]

More videos, more videos!! This is the most important part of your business EDUCATION !!! Fully converted Ryobi now. I needed this video else i was going to return the tool. P.S. the included disks are very poorly labeled. Should have "toolside" labeling for orientation

[@russellc308]

very helpful!! thx

[@Echo3_]

I love the Ryobi tool ecosystem, wish I could afford to have them all, it’s Harbor freight for me :(

[@sribalajitourist4215]

Thanks a lot .

[@familydogg1234]

You got that right- let the tool do the work- don't FORCE blade in. Lol- I wore out a " Diamond" cutting 30 Transformers Copper contents. Actually I got better after awhile. I like that new blade locking nut. Thanx

[@brokenarrowez]

I'm in love.

Worldstar brought me here

[@sigataros]

I can imagine this angle grinder sparking and blowing up while im using it

[@richn9481]

If I use type 27 wheels for cutting do I need optional wheel guard? Model is PCL445? Manual says guard needed for TYPE 1 wheels?

[@danielwebster7766]

Be careful about where the sparks are going

[@TheYoutubeKid1]

Yeah incase of gasoline or oil

[@snakesonn3590]

G'day Shannon. Great video as usual legend

[@PriceHollingsworth]

Chain saw wheel is for wood

[@catherjwang]

Can this be used to grind wood or bark on wood?

[@TheYoutubeKid1]

No just metal

[@rockyridgevlogs1995]

Yes

[@MegaOzzy28]

What do you mean? My angle grinder is my circular saw too!!!

[@8w8r8p]

You didn't explain how to fit a cutting disc. Aren't there important differences in how they're installed?

[@shannondelima3028]

Or how to put the nut back on with the spindle lock. Wtf. 5 minutes of high quality video production without the basics. Guess I'll read the manual 😅

[@8w8r8p]

@@shannondelima3028 Yes. I remembered from years ago there's a difference between fitting a cutting disc and a grinding disc but couldn't remember the specifics or work it out from the manual. Have since worked it out myself but it's disappointing that a video produced by the manufacturer (and not some DIY cowboy in his shed) didn't think it's important to tell people the outer flange needs to be flipped, depending on which disc is being used.

No mention of PPE. Really?

[@paula9661]

She did mentioned. Shortly

Hi Shannon

[@chewar7537]

The music is annoying and unnecessary!

[@user-px1si5ik9b]

I found the music just so annoying and distracting. Couldn’t continue watching even though it was informative

[@ricomidence2063]

So turn your volume and add subtitles...

[@americanhero1234]

She draws attention to them by moving hands back and forth.

[@AlanlaCelestina]

She can’t hide them 😈
