ADJUSTMENTS

WARNING:
Before performing any adjustment, make sure the
tool is unplugged from the power supply. Failure to
heed this warning could result in serious personal
injury.

DEPTH STOP

See Figure 11, page 19.
The depth stop limits the wheel's downward travel. It allows
the wheel to go below the machine base enough to maintain
full cutting capacities.
The adjustable depth stop is a bolt threaded into the pivot
bracket at the rear. To adjust the depth stop use the arbor
wrench supplied to raise or lower the depth stop bolt.
The depth stop is factory set to provide maximum cutting
capacity for the 14 in. abrasive wheel provided with the
cut-off machine.
When the diameter of the wheel has been reduced due to
wear, it may be necessary to adjust the depth stop to provide
maximum cutting capacity. When a new abrasive wheel is
installed, it is necessary to check the clearance of the wheel
to the machine base support.
 Unplug the cut-off machine.
 Slide the arbor wrench over the depth stop bolt and onto
the lock nut.
 Loosen the lock nut.
 Move the arbor wrench up and onto the head of the depth
stop bolt.
 Hold the lock nut and adjust the depth stop bolt.
NOTE: The depth stop is lowered by turning the depth
stop bolt clockwise and raised by turning the bolt
counterclockwise.
 Once the depth stop bolt is in the desired position, tighten
the lock nut to secure it in place.
 By pressing down on the machine arm, lower the wheel
and check clearance and maximum cutting distance
(distance from adjustable stationary vise where wheel
enters) to front of machine base slot.
 Adjust if necessary.
NOTICE:
Do not start the cut-off machine without checking
for interference between the wheel and the machine
base support. Damage may result to the wheel if it
strikes the machine base support during operation
of the machine.
