This is a very important step, as cleaning agents, grinding residues, and removed dirt and debris may remain on the surface of the ripper teeth. If not thoroughly removed, it may cause to the following problems:
Chemical residues: Cleaning agents remaining on the surface may react with metals, cause to corrosion or other chemical reactions. This will damage the surface quality of the ripper teeth and shorten their service life.
Grinding residue: The residue generated by the grinding pad may leave particles or small wear marks on the surface. If not thoroughly removed, it may cause unnecessary friction or wear in the next use.
Dirt and debris: The removed dirt, debris, or other impurities may adhere to the surface of the ripper teeth. If not removed in time, it may affect the performance and effectiveness of the ripper teeth.
