To Operate The Cut Off Saw:
NOTE: During the break-in phase, which takes about eight hours of use, the Cut
1.
Off Saw must not be operated at high speeds without a load (do not pull the Throt-
tle Trigger (10D) beyond 3/4 of full throttle). Following this procedure will lengthen
the service life of the Saw.
NOTE: After running the Cut Off Saw for an extended period of time, allow the En-
2.
gine to idle for several minutes to dissipate the heat. This will prevent some engine
parts (ignition system, carburetor, etc.) from being damaged by overheating.
IMPORTANT: The Saw Blade (not included) will not rotate when the Engine idles.
3.
(See Figure A.)
When the Cut Off Saw is ready to operate, gently pull the Throttle Trigger (10D)
4.
backward to accelerate the Engine. Once the Engine accelerates, the Saw Blade
will begin to rotate and speed up. When the blade speed is up and stable, you can
begin to move the Saw slowly toward the object to be cut.
While holding the Cut Off Saw firmly, approach the object to be cut with the Saw
5.
Blade and increase pressure on the Cut Off Saw slowly until the Saw Blade is at
the desired depth of cut. Move forward along a straight line to complete the cut.
To Turn Off The Cut Off Saw:
To turn off the saw after a cut is completed, lift the Saw Blade out of the cut then
release the Throttle Trigger (10D). Wait until the Engine slows down to idle speed
and the Saw Blade stops rotating, then move the On/OFF Switch (5D) located at
the front of the Rear Handle (7D) to its OFF position.
