USE ONLY CORRECT WHEELS. Do not use wheels with
incorrect size holes. Never use wheel washers or wheel
screws that are defective or incorrect. The maximum
wheel capacity of your cut-off machine is 14 in.

DO NOT REMOVE THE MACHINE'S WHEEL GUARDS.
Never operate the machine with any guard or cover
removed. Make sure all guards are operating properly
before each use.

KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM CUTTING AREA. Keep
hands away from wheel. Do not reach underneath work
or around or under the wheel while the wheel is rotating.
Do not attempt to remove cut material while wheel is
moving.


of tipping machine, always support long material.

BEFORE MAKING A CUT, BE SURE ALL ADJUST-
MENTS ARE SECURE.

ALWAYS USE THE VISE CLAMP to secure the
material.

NEVER
cut more than one piece of material at a time.
DO NOT STACK
more than one piece of material on the
machine base at a time.

NEVER PERFORM ANY OPERATION “FREEHAND”.
Always secure the material to be cut in the vise.

NEVER hand hold a piece of material. Material will become
very hot while being cut.

NEVER reach behind, under, or within three inches of the
wheel and its cutting path with your hands and fingers
for any reason.

NEVER reach to pick up a piece of material, a piece of
scrap, or anything else that is in or near the cutting path

GENERAL SAFETY RULES

INSPECT TOOL CORDS PERIODICALLY. If damaged,
have repaired by a qualified service technician at
an authorized service facility. The conductor with insulation
having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow
stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair
or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary,
do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a
live terminal. Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord
immediately. Stay constantly aware of cord location and
keep it well away from the rotating wheel.

INSPECT EXTENSION CORDS PERIODICALLY and
replace if damaged.

POLARIZED PLUGS. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
this tool has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one
way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician
to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any
way.

KEEP TOOL DRY, CLEAN, AND FREE FROM OIL AND
GREASE.
Always use a clean cloth when cleaning. Never
use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, or
any solvents to clean tool.

STAY ALERT AND EXERCISE CONTROL. Watch what
you are doing and use common sense. Do not operate
tool when you are tired. Do not rush.

DO NOT USE TOOL IF SWITCH DOES NOT TURN IT
ON AND OFF.
Have defective switches replaced by an
authorized service center.

NEVER TOUCH WHEEL or other moving parts during
use.

NEVER START THE CUT-OFF MACHINE WHEN THE
WHEEL IS IN CONTACT WITH THE MATERIAL.

DO NOT OPERATE A TOOL WHILE UNDER THE
INFLUENCE OF DRUGS, ALCOHOL, OR ANY
MEDICATION.

WHEN SERVICING use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause
product damage.

USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES listed
in this manual or addendums. Use of accessories that
are not listed may cause the risk of personal injury.
Instructions for safe use of accessories are included
