11.
Ensure that the bar spanner used for tightening or
removing the cut-o
ff
wheel is not attached to the machine.
12.
Check that the work piece is properly supported.
Ensure that the material is securely fastened with the
vise. If it is not, a serious accident could be caused if the
material comes loose or the cut-o
ff
wheel breaks during
operation.
13.
Ensure that the abrasive wheel is correctly
fi
tted and
tightened before use and run the machine at no-load
for 30s in safe position, stop immediately if there is a
considerable vibration or if other defects are detected.
If this condition occurs, check the machine to determine
the cause.
14.
Rotate the cut-o
ff
wheel to inspect any facial de
fl
ection.
A heavy de
fl
ection will cause the cut-o
ff
wheel to shift.
15.
Ensure that ventilation openings are kept clear when
working in dusty conditions. If it should become
necessary to clear dust,
fi
rst disconnect the machine
from the mains supply.
16.
Do not use accessories which are not speci
fi
cally
designed and recommended by the tool manufacturer.
Just because the accessory can be attached to your
power tool, it does not assure safe operation.
CUTTING PROCEDURES
CAUTION
It is dangerous to remove or install the workpiece while the
cut-o
ff
wheel turning.
1. Operating the switch (Fig. 2)
The switch is switched on by manually pulling the trigger
and cut o
ff
by releasing the trigger to the original location.
The switch will not operate unless the stopper has been
pushed in.
2. Cutting
(1) Rotate the cut-o
ff
wheel, gently press down the handle,
and bring the cut-o
ff
wheel close to the cutting material.
(2) When the cut-o
ff
wheel contacts the cutting material,
gently press down the handle further and start cutting.
(3) When cutting (or designated slotting) is completed, raise
the handle and restore it to its original position.
(4) At the termination of each cutting process, turn OFF the
switch to stop rotation and proceed with the subsequent
cutting job.
CAUTION
It does not necessarily cut rapidly when putting more
force on the handle.
Too much force on the handle will put excessive
pressure on the motor and reduce its capacity.
NOTE
Due to HITACHI’s continuing program of research and
development, the speci
fi
cations herein are subject to
change without prior notice.
PRIOR TO OPERATION
1. Unpacking
Carefully remove all parts included in the delivery from
their packaging. Remove all packaging material from the
machine and the accessories provided.
Before starting the operation of the machine for the
fi
rst
time, check if all parts of standard accessories listed
below have been supplied:
–
Cut-o
ff
wheel
– Hex. Bar wrench
CAUTION
Avoid unintentional starting of the machine. During
assembly and for all work on the machine, the power
plug must not be connected to the mains supply.
2. Power source
Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms
to the power requirements speci
fi
ed on the product
nameplate.
3. Power switch
Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position. If the
plug is connected to a receptacle while the power switch
is in the ON position, the power tool will start operating
immediately, which could cause a serious accident.
4. Extension cord
When the work area is removed from the power source, use
an extension cord of su
ffi
cient thickness and rated capacity.
The extension cord should be kept as short as practicable.
5.
To ensure safe handling, the machine must be installed
on a level and stable surface (e. g., workbench) prior to
using.
6.
Since movable portions are secured by tension of a
chain while in transit, remove the chain from the chain
hook by slightly depressing the switch handle.
7.
Ascertain that all cut-o
ff
wheels are in perfect condition,
and do not display scars and cracks.
8.
Although they have been fully clamped at the factory prior
to delivery, reclamp the clamping nuts securely for safety.
9
Possible accidents such as a cracked cut-o
ff
wheel
is prevented by this protective cover (wheel cover).
Although it has been fully clamped at the factory prior to
delivery, securely reclamp the mounting screws for safety.
10.
When replacing the cut-o
ff
wheel, ensure that
the replacement cutting wheel has a designed
circumferential speed in excess of 4800 m/min.
