Operating Instructions
MAKING A CUT
1. Make sure material being cut is secured in
a vise or fixture before attempting to cut.
2. Keep your body positioned to either side of
the wheel, but not in line with wheel. It is
important to support the tool properly and to
position your body such as to minimize body
exposure from possible wheel binding and
recoil.
3. Grip the tool with both hands when cutting
and always be ready and able to manage the
cut.
4. Avoid jamming, twisting or pinching the
wheel with the workpiece or otherwise
applying excessive side pressure to the wheel.
5. Keep guard covering between wheel and
user.
6. Make sure the guard lock lever is in the
closed position and the guard is securely
mounted to the attachment. Use the allen
wrench to adjust the guard adjustment screw.
7. Maximum cutting depth is 3/4”.
Overtightening the guard
adjustment screw can
permanently damage the locking mechanism.
Test the tightness of the lever after each full
turn of the adjustment screw.
To prevent recoil and
damage to the tool, always
ensure that the inner or outer flanges never
contacts the workpiece surface.
8. Generally, the harder the material being
worked on, the faster the wheel will wear.
9. When cutting thicker material, never make
the cut in one pass. Make successive passes
until you reach desired depth.
NOTE: If you run the tool continuously for
more than 5 minutes, it is normal for the
housing to feel warm.
It is important to read and understand the
section in this manual called “Causes and
Operator Prevention of Recoil”.
