2. INTRODUCTION & SPECIFICATION
3.1.
Air Supply
- Recommended hook-up is shown in fig 2.
3.1.1.
Ensure that the cut-off tool air valve (or throttle) is in the "off" position before connecting to the air supply.
3.1.2.
You will require an air pressure between 70-90psi, and an air flow according to the specification above.
3.1.3.
Ensure the air supply is clean and does not exceed 90psi while operating the cut-off tool.
Too high an air pressure and/or unclean air will cause excessive wear, and may be dangerous,
causing damage and/or personal injury.
3.1.4.
Drain the air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the cut-off tool and invalidate your warranty.
3.1.5.
Clean air inlet filter weekly.
3.1.6.
Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8 metres).
The minimum hose diameter should be 1/4” I.D. and fittings must have the same inside dimensions.
3.1.7.
Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check hoses for wear, and make certain that all
connections are secure.
3.2. Couplings
Vibration may cause failure if a quick change coupling is connected directly to the cut-off tool. To prevent
this, connect a leader hose - Sealey model number AH2R or AH2R/38 - to the grinder. A quick change
coupling may then be used to connect the leader hose to the air line recoil hose. See figs. 1 & 2 on
next page.

PREPARING CUT-OFF TOOL FOR USE
1.2.
LEAD PAINT WARNING!
Paint once contained lead as a traditional ingredient. Contact with the dust from the removal of such
paint is toxic and must therefore be avoided. The following action must be taken before using the cut-off tool.
1.
User must determine potential hazard relating to age of paint to be removed (modern paints
do not have lead content).
2.
DANGER!
Keep all people and pets away from the working area. The following are particularly
vulnerable to the effects of lead paint dust:
Pregnant women, babies and children.
3.
We recommend personal protection by using the following safety items:
a)
Paint Spray Respirator (Our ref SSP1699)
b)
PE Coated Hooded Coverall (Our ref SSP265).
c)
Latex Gloves (Our ref SSP24).
4.
Take adequate measures to contain the paint dust, flakes and scrapings.
5.
Continue to wear safety equipment as in (3) above and thoroughly clean all areas when work
is complete. Ensure that paint waste is disposed of in sealed bags or containers according to
local regulations.

Risk of Hand Arm Vibration Injury
Air Angle Cut-Off Tool (long reach) Model No. SA6501 when operated in accordance with these instructions
and tested in accordance with EN 28662-2: 1994 results in the following vibration emission declared in
accordance with
BS EN12096: 1996.
Measured vibration emission value: . . . . . . . . . . .1.5m/s²
Uncertainty: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .0.60m/s²
These values are suitable for comparison with emission levels of other tools that have been subject to
the same test.This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is inadequately managed.
Recommended Measures to reduce risk of hand-arm vibration syndrome:
This item represents a low Hand Arm Vibration risk to users. The calculated maximum usage period exceeds 8
hours. We recommend appropriate safety equipment is utilised and regular breaks for the operator are
employed to reduce any residual risk of fatigue or repetitive strain injury.
