BEARING CHECK
Periodically inspect the bearings and associated parts for
proper operation. A worn or damaged bearing can cause
motor damage.
ACCESSORY INSTALLATION
HANDLE EXTENSION INSTALLATION
An optional handle extension can be installed on the CO25
cutoff saw between the motor mount and the valve handle
assembly.
1. Remove the wheel guard by loosening and removing the
wheel nut using a box-end wrench while gripping the cutoff
wheel.
2. Remove the outside collar, wheel and inside collar by
removing the beveled retaining ring and swingover nut as-
sembly securing the wheel guard. Remove the guard.
3. Remove the four hex-socket capscrews securing the
valve handle assembly to the motor housing. Separate the
two assemblies.
4. Carefully remove the two short oil tubes from the motor
housing or valve handle. If you plan to remove the exten-
sion at a later date and restore the cutoff saw to its original
confi guration:
Note:
Take care not to damage the sealing surfaces of the
tubes.
5. Clean, wrap, mark and store the oil tubes in a safe place.
6. Install the extension on the motor housing by aligning the
holes in the extension with those in the motor housing.
7. Install and tighten the four hex-socket capscrews from
the motor housing side of the joint.
8. Install the two long oil tubes in the extension by lubricat-
ing and installing an O-ring on each end of the two long oil
tubes included in the extension kit.
9. Carefully insert the tubes in the large holes in the exten-
sion until they bottom out inside the motor.
10. Install the valve handle assembly on the extension by
aligning the oil tubes protruding from the extension with the
holes in the valve handle assembly.
11. Carefully slide the valve handle assembly onto the oil
tubes until the handle mates with the extension.
12. Install and tighten four hex-socket capscrews from the
extension side of the joint.
13. Remove the tubular handlebar from the cutoff saw by
loosening and removing the hex-socket capscrews from the
top and bottom of the handlebar next to the wheel guard.
14. Slide the handlebar horizontally off the end of the motor
assembly.
15. Install the new assist handle by using two capscrews
and the handlebar retainers removed from the original
handle.
16. Fasten the vertical strut of the assist handle to the
extension using the hardware included in the extension
kit. On models using a 1/4-inch fastener, install the spacer
between the strut and the extension.
17. Remove the handle strut assembly from the cut-off saw
as desired.
SAW CART INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL
The CO25 cut-off saw can be installed on a Stanley saw
cart to provide a stable platform for slab cutting. The saw
can be easily removed again for handheld operation. After
the original installation, attaching or removing the saw from
the cart requires only a few steps.
INSTALLATION
Steps 1 through 4 are required only for the initial installation
on a new cart.
1. Install the handlebar assembly by inserting the handlebar
assembly in the tube at the top of the cart. Insert with the
control lever on the left side as you stand behind the cart.
2. Center the assembly and secure with the 3/8-inch
handlebar set bolt and locking nut.
3. Install the foam grip on the left end of the handlebar us-
ing soapy water. The right grip is installed at the factory.
4. Connect the control cable to the control lever by insert-
ing the cable head into the lever housing and turn to lock in
place and align the cable in the slotted conduit retainer on
the control lever assembly and tighten the thumb nut.
