Cutting Line Guides
There are three line guides to align the tool
with the intended line of cut (Fig. 7). Line guide
1 can pivot and be stored adjacent to the up-
per guard and held in place by an internal
latch. To use it, simply flip it forward in front of
the tool so that the guide roller contacts the
work surface.
Line guide 1 is made of steel. Line guides 2
and 3 are on the inner surfaces of the left side
wheels.
To prevent damage, fold the line guide 1 to
storage position on the upper guard when the
tool is not in use.
General Cuts
Disconnect the power cord from the power
source before making adjustments. Set depth
adjustment. Reconnect the plug to power
source.
Always hold the tool by the main handle with
one hand and the side handle with the other.
Tip the tool back on the rear wheels. Align tool
and cut-off wheel to intended line of cut using
four line guides.
Maintain a firm grip and operate the switch
with a decisive action. Never force the tool.
Lower the wheel into material to be cut until
desired depth of cut is reached.
After completing a cut
and the trigger has been
released, be aware of the nec es sary time it
takes for the cut-off wheel to come to a com-
plete stop during coast down. Do not allow
the tool to brush against your leg or side.
When cutting is interrupted, to resume cut-
ting: squeeze the trigger and allow the cut-
off wheel to reach full speed, re-enter the cut
slowly and resume cutting.
This tool is not designed
for use with wood or
metal cutting blades.
Do not use abrasive
wheels with this tool.
Overload protection
This machine is equipped with an overload-
protection circuit. Under extreme cutting loads,
this circuit will limit the allowed current and the
user may experience a reduction in machine
speed. If this situation occurs, allow the ma-
chine to cool by removing the blade from the
cut and then running the machine at no load
for a brief time.
