Operation with wire wheel brush 
(optional accessory)

007243 

CAUTION: 

• 

Check operation of wire wheel brush by running
tool with no load, insuring that no one is in front of 
or in line with the wire wheel brush. 

• 

Do not use wire wheel brush that is damaged, or
which is out of balance. Use of damaged wire 
wheel brush could increase potential for injury 
from contact with broken wires. 

• 

ALWAYS use guard with wire wheel brushes,
assuring diameter of wheel fits inside guard. 
Wheel can shatter during use and guard helps to 
reduce chances of personal injury. 

Remove the battery cartridge from the tool and place it 
upside down allowing easy access to spindle. Remove 
any accessories on spindle. Thread wire wheel brush 
onto spindle and tighten with the wrenches. 
When using wire wheel brush, avoid applying too much 
pressure which causes over bending of wires, leading to 
premature breakage. 

Operation with abrasive cut-off wheel

WARNING: 

• 

When using an abrasive cut-off wheel, be sure to
use only the special wheel guard designed for use 
with cut-off wheels. 

• 

NEVER use cut-off wheel for side grinding. 

• 

Do not "jam" the wheel or apply excessive pressure. 
Do not attempt to make an excessive depth of cut.
Overstressing the wheel increases the loading and
susceptibility to twisting or binding of the wheel in
the cut and the possibility of kickback, wheel
breakage and overheating of the motor may occur. 

• 

Do not start the cutting operation in the workpiece.
Let the wheel reach full speed and carefully enter
into the cut moving the tool forward over the
workpiece surface.    The wheel may bind, walk up
or kickback if the power tool is started in the
workpiece. 

• 

During cutting operations, never change the angle
of the wheel. Placing side pressure on the cut-off
wheel (as in grinding) will cause the wheel to crack 
and break, causing serious personal injury. 

MAINTENANCE 

CAUTION: 

• 

Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the 
battery cartridge is removed before attempting to 
perform inspection or maintenance. 

• 

Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or
the like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may 
result.
