Pro-Tip: When using a turbo rim blade for dry cutting, avoid putting excessive pressure on the grinder. Allow the blade to reach full RPM before entering the material and pull the blade out of the cut every 30 seconds to let it air-cool, which prevents the diamond segments from glazing over and ensures maximum life.
