machine cannot be used to bevel cutting.
To change the cutting angle, loosen the two hex bolts which secure the guide plate.
Move the guide plate to the desired angle (0° - 45°) and tighten the hex bolts
securely. (

Securing Workpiece
CAUTION:
Always set the vise nut to right fully
when securing the workpiece. Failure to
do so may result in insufficient securing
of the workpiece. This could cause the
workpiece to be ejected or cause a
dangerous breakage of the wheel.
By setting the vise nut to left, the thread
shaft can be moved rapidly in and out.
To grip workpieces, set the vise nut to
left and push the thread shaft until the vise plate contacts the workpiece. Set the vise
nut to right and then turn the vise handle clockwise to securely retain the workpiece.

Spacer Blocks
When the cut-off wheel has worn down
considerably, use a spacer block of sturdy,
non-flammable
material
behind
the
workpiece. (
Fig. 10
)
You can more efficiently utilize the worn
wheel by using the midpoint on the
periphery of the wheel to cut the
workpiece.
Cutting at an Angle
When cutting workpiece over 65mm wide at an angle, attach a straight piece of
wood (spacer) over 190mm long and 45mm wide to the guide plate. (
Fig. 11
)
Attach this spacer with screws through the holes in the guide plate.
If you use a spacer block which is slightly narrower than the workpiece. (
Fig. 12
) You
can also utilize the wheel economically.
Cutting Long Workpieces
Long workpiece must be supported by blocks of
non-flammable material on either end so that it will
be level with the base top. (
Fig. 13
)
Switch Action
CAUTION:
Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that
the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to
the “OFF” position when released.
To start the machine, simply press the switch trigger.
Release the switch trigger to stop. For continuous
operation, pull the switch trigger and then push in
the lock button. To stop the machine from the locked
position, press the switch trigger fully and then release it. (
