1. If you are not thoroughly familiar with the operation of a cut-off saw, obtain advice from a
supervisor, instructor, or other qualified person.
2. ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GOGGLES. Wear hearing protection during periods of
extended operation.
3. REPLACE CRACKED METAL CUTTING DISC IMMEDIATELY. Handle disc carefully and
inspect for cracks before each use. Tighten spindle bolt enough to hold the disc firmly.
Use only the disc flanges provided with your cut-off saw.
4. DO NOT stand in front of the cut-off saw when starting it. To start the saw, stand to one
side and turn ON. Wait until the cut-off saw comes to full speed. There is always the
possibility that a piece from a damaged disc may be thrown off when coming to full
speed.
5. ONLY USE abrasive cut-off discs rated at 4100 RPM or higher.
6. NEVER USE A CIRCULAR SAW BLADE or tooth-type blade in the cut-off saw.
7. DO NOT CUT wood with this cut-off saw.
8. DO NOT USE THE CUT-OFF SAW with the upper or lower blade guard removed.
9. ALWAYS CLAMP THE WORKPIECE with the vise clamp assembly when cutting.
10. CAUTION! Flying sparks will occur when cutting. Sparks can cause personal injury and
ignite flammable materials.
11. DO NOT TOUCH the workpiece after cutting. It is hot and could burn the skin.
12. RELEASE TRIGGER SWITCH AND ALLOW THE CUTTING DISC TO COME TO A
COMPLETE STOP BEFORE REMOVING ANYTHING FROM THE CUT-OFF SAW
TABLE.
13. KEEP HANDS AWAY from rotating parts.
14. AVOID DANGEROUS CONDITIONS. Do not use the cut-off saw in wet or damp areas, or
expose to rain. Use the cut-off saw in a well-ventilated area. FOR INDOOR USE ONLY.

DO NOT OPERATE YOUR CUT-OFF SAW UNTIL IT IS COMPLETELY
ASSEMBLED AND INSTALLED ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS.
