Abrasive wheel cutting disc - IOSH forums

Can anyone give the definitive answer to the question of which way should the angle grinder abrasive wheel disc be fitted?    Any manufacturer's guidance I have read states it must be fitted correctly but does not say if the spindle locking nut should be against the unblotted side of the disc or the metal insert with expiry date on it.

Been n contact with a number of disc manufacturer's and suppliers with conflicting answers!   Some say it does not matter, other it should be against the metal insert, others against the blotter side.   On-line images tend to show all grinders with the information label facing upwards towards the user, ocasional ones not.

It would be helpful to know what the reason would be to say one way or another.
