This product has been shipped completely assembled.
Carefully lift machine from the carton by the carrying
handle and the machine base, and place it on a level
work surface.
NOTE:
This tool is heavy. To avoid back injury, lift with
your legs, not your back, and get help when needed.
WARNING:
Do not use this product if it is not completely
assembled or if any parts appear to be missing
or damaged. Use of a product that is not properly
and completely assembled could result in serious
personal injury.
This machine has been shipped with the machine arm
secured in the down position. To release the machine arm,
push down on the “D” handle and unhook the transport
chain.
WARNING:
The machine arm is spring loaded. Hold the handle
down to prevent it from snapping up when the
transport chain is unhooked. Failure to do so could
result in possible serious injury.
Lift the machine arm by the handle. Hand pressure should
remain on the “D” handle to prevent sudden rise upon
release of the transport chain.
Inspect the tool carefully to make sure no breakage or
damage occurred during shipping.
Do not discard the packing material until you have carefully
inspected and satisfactorily operated the tool.
The machine is factory set for accurate cutting. After
assembling it, check for accuracy. If shipping has
influenced the settings, refer to specific procedures
explained in this manual.

WARNING:
If any parts are damaged or missing, do not operate
this tool until the parts are replaced. Use of this
product with damaged or missing parts could result
in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Do not attempt to modify this tool or create
accessories not recommended for use with this
tool. Any such alteration or modification is misuse
and could result in a hazardous condition leading
to possible serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Do not connect to power supply until assembly
is complete. Failure to comply could result in
accidental starting and possible serious personal
injury.
WARNING:
A 14 in. wheel is the maximum wheel capacity of the
cut-off machine. Never use a wheel that is too thick
to allow outer flange to engage with the flats on the
spindle. Larger wheels will come in contact with the
wheel guards, while thicker wheels will prevent the
bolt from securing the wheel on the spindle. Either
of these situations could result in a serious accident
and can cause serious personal injury.
MOUNTING HOLES
See Figure 2, page 17.
The saw should be mounted to a firm supporting surface
such as a workbench. Bolt holes have been provided in
the saw base for this purpose. Each of the mounting holes
should be bolted securely using machine bolts, lock washers,
and hex nuts (not included). Bolts should be of sufficient
length to accommodate the saw base, lock washers, hex
nuts, and the thickness of the workbench. Tighten all bolts
securely.
Carefully check the workbench after mounting to make
sure that no movement can occur during use. If any tipping,
sliding, or walking is noted, secure the workbench to the
floor before operating.
