Operating Instructions:

• Choose the Correct Wire Brush – Select the appropriate wire‑brush type (steel, nylon, brass, etc.) and size for the job (e.g., rough‑enamel, fine‑metal, rust removal).
• Prepare the Workpiece – Clean the surface of large debris; if wet‑brushing, apply water or solvent to keep the surface lubricated.
• Hold the Wire Brush Firmly – Use a double‑handed grip or a brush holder to maintain control and prevent accidental splattering.
• Brush in a Controlled Motion – Work in consistent, overlapping strokes; avoid dragging the brush at high speeds that can damage the brush or the material.
• Replace When Worn – Switch to a new brush when the wires are flattened, frayed, or the abrasive action has noticeably decreased.

Handling Info:

• Storage – Keep brushes in a dry, well‑ventilated area; store horizontally or upright to prevent wire deformation.
• Orientation – Do not stack brushes with the bristles facing upward, as this can cause uneven wear.
• Transportation – Pack brushes in their original packaging or a padded case; label “Keep upright” if shipping.
• Cleaning – After use, rinse the brush in water (or the appropriate solvent) and allow it to dry completely before storing.
• Avoid Over‑cleaning – Excessive washing or soaking can loosen wires and reduce life span.

Safety Information:

• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) – Always wear safety glasses or a face shield; use gloves when handling abrasive or contaminated brushes.
• Ventilation – Work in a well‑ventilated space or use a dust‑collection system to minimize airborne particulates.
• Sharp Edges – Handle the brush carefully; the wires can be sharp and may cause cuts or punctures.
• First Aid
  • Inhalation: Move to fresh air; seek medical attention if symptoms persist.
  • Skin Contact: Wash the affected area with soap and water; if irritation continues, consult a medical professional.
  • Eye Contact: Flush with water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical care.
• Fire Safety – Avoid exposing brushes to open flames or high heat, especially when used on flammable or solvent‑treated materials.
• Disposal – Dispose of used wire brushes in accordance with local hazardous‑waste regulations; recycle metal components where possible.
