Using the Bosch MGX0500 Backing Pad is a breeze. First, check if your grinder has an X-LOCK system. If it does, simply align the backing pad with the grinder and mount it. You'll hear a snap, which means it's properly attached. Then, use the included X-LOCK clip to make sure the wheel is secure. When it's time to change the wheel, just pull the lever on the grinder. As for the abrasive fiber discs, they work great with this backing pad for removing metal and getting a nice finish. Here are some important things to note. This backing pad is only for X-LOCK grinders and won't work with standard 7/8 - inch arbor mounts. When you're not using the backing pads, store them in a dry place to prevent damage. Clean them regularly to keep them in good condition. You can use a soft brush to remove any debris on the pads. With proper use and maintenance, your Bosch MGX0500 Backing Pads will serve you well for a long time.
