What does the panel think about removing the guard from a bench grinder to fit a diamond or CBN wheel?
Bear in mind that these wheels are generally made of a solid lump of steel so cannot shatter like a normal grinding wheel.
 
Leave it on. You will only ever need that guard once. If it is not there you will have problems. It's like insurnce. If you have it, you don't need it.
