WARNING: Always make sure that motor
is
connected to a properly
grounded
outlet.
Failure to do so may result in serious bodily injury or death. Do not operate motor on low
voltage. It
may cause power loss, overheating, or burn out motor windings.
Check voltage
at
motor while
operating. Comply
with all local electrical codes. If you are unsure, check with
an electrician
.
d)
Proper voltage is critical for
proper motor
performance. Extension
cords,
which are
too long
and/or
too
small of
a
gauge, will prevent
motor
from
receiving
full voltage. Follow extension

3.
To
cut material, either:
a)
Pull cutting head down
by
handle to desired cutting depth. It
is
best to use the entire
diamond
segment
height to cut
.
Tighten
handle on
depth
lock
to
keep
cutting head at
set
height.
CAUTION: Take care not
to
saw conveyor cart in half. Cutting head pivot range
allows
the
operator
to "
·
·use
up"
an
abrasive blade, but allows the risk of cutting conveyor cart.
CAUTION:
Do not allow material being cut to rub against blade flanges. This will damage
them
and
they will need to be replaced.
b)
Clamp
or hold material
firmly against
the conveyor can measuring stop.
CAUTION: If material being cut is allowed to slip, blade may bind, damaging
it.
Do not
cock, jam, wedge or twist the blade in the cut. Do not
grind
on the side of the blade.
c)
Push
conveyor
cart through blade
at a
reasonable
even
rate
that allows
the
blade
to cut
e
fficiently
,
but
doesn’
t bog down the
engine
or overload the
motor.
WARNING: Keep hands and all other body parts away from blade when pushing conveyor
cart
through
cut. and at all times saw is running.
