To Reduce The Risk Of Injury From Jams, Slips Or Thrown Pieces
• To reduce the risk of burns or other fire damage, never
use the machine near flammable liquids, vapors or
gases.
• Choose the right 14-inch diameter cut-off wheel for the
material and the type of cutting you plan to do.
• Make sure the cut-off wheel is undamaged and prop-
erly aligned. With the machine unplugged, push the
power-head all the way down. Hand spin the cut-off
wheel and check for clearance. If the abrasive wheel
hits anything, make the adjustments shown in the
"Alignment" section.
Plan Ahead To Protect Your Eyes, Hands, Face and Ears
Know Your Machine. Read and understand the owner's
manual and labels affixed to the tool. Learn its applica-
tions and limitations as well as the specific potential haz-
ards peculiar to this tool.
To reduce the risk of injury from accidental contact with
moving parts, don't do layout, assembly, or setup work on
the machine while any parts are moving.
Reduce The Risk of Accidental Starting. Make sure
switch is "OFF" before plugging tool into a power outlet.
Plan your work.
Use The Right Tool. Don't force tool or attachment to do
a job it was not designed to do. Use a different tool for
any workpiece that can't be held in a solidly braced, fixed
position.
CAUTION: When cutting any metals, sparks or hot
fragments could cause a fire.
To reduce the risk of injury or death from electrical
shock:
Make sure your fingers do not touch the plug's metal
prongs when plugging or unplugging the cut-off machine.
did not, follow the instructions in the Trouble Shooting
section.
• Other conditions that may affect the way the machine
works.
If any part of this machine is missing, bent, or broken in
any way, or any electrical parts don't work, turn the tool
off and unplug it. Replace damaged, missing, or failed
parts before using the machine again.
Keep Guards In Place, in working order, and in proper
adjustment.
Maintain Tools With Care. Keep the machine clean for
best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubri-
cating.
Remove Wrench from tool before turning it on.
• Make sure the abrasive wheel and arbor collars are
clean.
• Make sure the collars' recessed sides are facing the
abrasive cut-off wheel.
• Using the arbor wrench supplied, make sure the arbor
screw is firmly hand tightened.
• Make sure all clamps are tight and there is no exces-
sive play in any parts.
• Keep Work Area Clean. Cluttered areas and benches
invite accidents. Floor must not be slippery.
Dress for safety.
Any power tool can throw foreign objects into the eyes.
This can result in permanent eye damage. Always wear
safety goggles, (not glasses) complying with ANSI Z87.1
(or in Canada CSA-Z94.3-99) shown on package. Every-
day eyeglasses have only impact resistant lenses. They
are not safety glasses. Safety goggles are available at
many local retail stores. Glasses or goggles not in com-
pliance with ANSI or CSA could seriously hurt you when
they break.
• For dusty operations, wear a dust mask or respirator
along with safety goggles.
