ASSEMBLY and OPERATION

CONNECTING TO VACUUM CLEANER

When you wish to perform cleaner operation, connect a vacuum 

cleaner to your tool. Connect a hose of vacuum cleaner to the 

dust nozzle via an elbow joint (accessory). 

INSTALLING OR REMOVING THE WHEEL 

To remove the wheel, depress the shaft lock to hold the shaft stationary, then loosen the 

hex  bolt  clockwise  with  the  socket  wrench.  To  install  a  wheel,  place  flange  with  its  partly 

elevated side facing the tool, and then place ring before installing a wheel onto the spindle 

 

(shaft) and another flange with partly elevated side facing outward. Be sure to fully tighten the hex bolt 

counterclockwise after mounting the new wheel, or operation will be dangerous. 

OPERATION

CAUTION: 

Be sure to pull the tool when cutting a workpiece.

• This tool should only be used on horizontal surfaces. 

• Use this tool for straight line cutting only. Cutting curves can cause stress cracks or fragmentation of the 

diamond wheel and abrasive cut-off wheel resulting in possible injury to persons in the vicinity. 

• After operation, always switch off the tool and wait until the wheel has come to a complete stop before 

putting the tool down. 

• When cutting concrete blocks, tiles or masonry materials, do not make a cut in depth more than  

60 mm (2-3/B”). When you need to cut a workpiece over 60 mm (2-3/8”) up to 100 mm (4”), make more than 

two passes of cuts. The depth of the most efficient cut is about 40 mm (1-9/16”). 

Hold the tool firmly with both hands. First keep the wheel 

without making any contact with a workpiece to be cut. Then 

turn the tool on and wait until the wheel attains full speed.  

The cut is made by pulling the tool toward you (not 

by pushing away from you). Align the notch on the 

base with your cutting line when performing a cut. 

 

Switch off the tool on the position posed when finishing a 

cut. Raise the tool after the wheel comes to a complete stop.
