TOOL USE AND CARE

Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
tool for the application. The correct tool will do
the job better and more safely at the rate that it
was designed to work at.
Do not use tools if switch does not turn it on or
off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source be-
fore making any adjustments, changing acces-
sories or storing the tool. This preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of accidental starting
of the tool.
When the power tool is not in use, store it out
of the reach of children, and do not allow in-
dividuals who are not familiar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate it. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands on untrained
users.
Maintain the power tool. Check for misalign-
ment or binding of moving parts, broken parts,
and any other condition that may affect the
operation of the power tool. If it is damaged,
have it repaired before using. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
Check for misalignment or bonding of moving
parts, breakage parts, and any other condition
that may affect the tools operation. If you find
a damaged tool, take it to service before use it.
Use only accessories that are recommended by
the manufacturer of your model. Suitable ac-
cessories for one tool, may become hazardous
when are used on another tool.
Keep cutting tools, sharpened and clean. Cut-
ting tools in good condition with sharpened
edges, are less likely to stuck in work pieces or
easier to control.
Is recommendable to use a safety device suit-
able, such a thermal and differential switch
when you are using an electric equipment.
SERVICE: Tool service must be performed only
by qualified repair personnel. Service or main-
tenance performed by unqualified personnel
could result in a risk of injury.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR

METAL CHOP SAW
• AVOID PROLONGED CONTACT WITH DUST
created by the abrasive Cut-off saw. Allowing
the dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on
your skin promotes the absorption of harmful
chemicals into your body.

• DO NOT OPERATE THIS CUT-OFF SAW until
it is completely assembled according to the in-
structions in this manual. Failure to adhere to
these instructions could result in serious and/or
permanent injury to the operator.
• MAKE SURE APPROVED EYE PROTECTION
IS BEING WORN and properly adjusted and
secured at all times the Cut-off saw is in use.
Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resistant
lenses and ARE NOT safety glasses.
• DO NOT PERFORM ANY OPERATION FREE-
HAND.
ALWAYS USE APPROVED TABLE CLAMPS AND
VICES to clamp work pieces to the Cut-off saw
table to prevent breakage, damage to the Cut-
off saw, the workpiece, and possible severe
injury to the operator.
• USE ONLY ABRASIVE CUTTING WHEELS that
are designed for the various speeds of this Cut-
off saw. The abrasive cutting wheels should
have an arbor size 5/8" OR SMALLER. Unsuit-
able cutting wheels can break without warning
throwing fragments outward at high speeds
possibly causing severe injuries.
• ALWAYS EASE THE CUTTING WHEEL AGAINST
THE WORKPIECE when starting a cutting op-
eration. A sudden impact can cause the abrasive
wheel to break sending fragments flying away
from the Cut-off saw at high speeds resulting in
possible severe injury to the operator.
• DO NOT USE AN ABRASIVE WHEEL THAT WOB-
BLES OR VIBRATES. Visually inspect the abrasive
wheels before they contact the workpiece
ensuring there are no side-to-side movements.
Should the abrasive wheel wobble from side-to-
side or if the tip appears broken, replace them
immediately. If the vibration still exists, check
the bearings and the motor shaft and repair or
replace them as soon as possible. • EXCESSIVE
VIBRATION can cause severe damage to both
the workpiece and the Cut-off saw.
DO NOT STAND DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE
CUT-OFF SAW when it is first turned on. Loose
fragments could fly off at high speeds possibly
causing injury.
• PROPERLY SUPPORT EXTRA LONG OR EXTRA
WIDE WORK PIECES. Work pieces that are too
long or too wide can tip and cause the abrasive
wheel to seize resulting in a sudden kick back
motion resulting in damage to the workpiece
and Cut-off saw as well as possible severe injury
to the operator.
