Do not use Flanges that are twisted, have damaged edges, are dirty or are a different
size than
specified for the tool.
Fitting the Cutting Blade
The Blade is placed between the inner Flange Hub (A) and the outer Flange Hub (B). The
Flange Hub is turned so that it fits on the Axle. The Shaft can be locked using a screwdriver,
steel pin or similar tool. The Blade is tightened clockwise. Tightening torque for the bolt
holding the Blade is 15–25 Nm (11–18 ft./lbs.).
Blade Guard
Check the Blade Guard for cracks or other damage. Clean the inside of the guard before
installing a new wheel. Check that the guard can be adjusted and locked.
WARNING:
The Blade Guard must be correctly installed prior to starting the
machine.
The Blade Guard should always be fitted on the Power Cutter.
The guard should be adjusted so that the rear section is close to the work piece. The best
distance is 1/4–9/32in. (6.5–7mm). The guard will collect cutting fragments and sparks,
keeping them away from the user.
