RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION
WARNING:
Wheel coasts after turn off.
■
NEVER USE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE.
Normal sparking of the motor or sparking from cutting
metal could ignite fumes.
■
INSPECT TOOL CORDS PERIODICALLY and if
damaged, have repaired at your nearest Ryobi Authorized
Service Center. Stay constantly aware of cord location
and keep it well away from the rotating wheel.
■
USE OUTDOOR EXTENSION CORDS. When tool is
used outdoors, use only extension cords with approved
ground connection that are intended for use outdoors
and so marked.
■
DO NOT USE TOOL IF SWITCH DOES NOT TURN IT
ON AND OFF. Have defective switches replaced by an
authorized service center.
■
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.
■
ALWAYS SUPPORT LONG WORKPIECES. To minimize
risk of tipping machine, always support long workpieces.
■
BEFORE MAKING A CUT, BE SURE ALL
ADJUSTMENTS ARE SECURE.
■
ALWAYS USE THE VISE CLAMP to secure the
workpiece.
■
NEVER TOUCH WHEEL or other moving parts during
use.
■
NEVER START THE CUT-OFF MACHINE WHEN THE
WHEEL IS IN CONTACT WITH THE WORKPIECE.
■
NEVER cut more than one workpiece at a time. DO NOT
STACK more than one workpiece on the machine base
at a time.
■
NEVER PERFORM ANY OPERATION "FREEHAND".
Always secure the workpiece to be cut in the vise.
■
NEVER hand hold a workpiece. Workpiece 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 fin-
gers for any reason.
■
NEVER reach to pick up a workpiece, a piece of scrap,
or anything else that is in or near the cutting path of the
wheel.
■
AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND POSI-
TIONS where a sudden slip could cause your hand to
move into the wheel. ALWAYS make sure you have good
balance.
■
NEVER stand or have any part of your body in line with
the path of the wheel.
■
ALWAYS release the power switch and allow the wheel
to stop rotating before raising it out of the workpiece.
■
DO NOT TURN THE MOTOR SWITCH ON AND OFF
RAPIDLY. This could cause the wheel to loosen and could
create a hazard. Should this ever occur, stand clear and
allow the wheel to come to a complete stop. Disconnect
your cut-off machine from the power supply and securely
retighten the wheel arbor bolt.
■
REPLACEMENT PARTS. All repairs, whether electrical
or mechanical, should be made at a Ryobi Authorized
Service Center.
WARNING:
When servicing use only identical Ryobi replacement
parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or
cause product damage.
■
NEVER leave the cut-off machine unattended while con-
nected to a power source.
■
IF ANY PART OF THIS CUT-OFF MACHINE IS MISS-
ING or should break, bend, or fail in any way, or should
any electrical component fail to perform properly, shut
off the power switch, remove the machine plug from the
power source and have damaged, missing, or failed parts
replaced before resuming operation.
■
MAKE SURE THE CUT-OFF WHEEL IS SECURELY
MOUNTED as described in the operating instructions
before connecting the tool to a power supply. Do not
tighten wheel excessively, since this can cause cracks.
■
CHECK THE WHEEL FOR FISSURES AND CRACKS,
and test for normal operation prior to use.
■
ONLY USE A CUT-OFF WHEEL RATED FOR 3300 RPM
OR GREATER and manufactured in compliance with
ANSI B7.1. Always store wheels in a dry place with little
temperature variation.
■
ALWAYS EASE THE ABRASIVE WHEEL AGAINST
THE WORK PIECE when starting to cut. A harsh impact
can break the wheel.
■
BEFORE CUTTING, press the trigger switch and allow
the cut-off wheel to reach full speed before cutting.
■
MAKE SURE THE WORK AREA HAS AMPLE LIGHT-
ING to see the work and that no obstructions will inter-
fere with safe operation BEFORE performing any work
using your cut-off machine.
■
DO NOT OPERATE THIS TOOL WHILE UNDER THE
INFLUENCE OF DRUGS, ALCOHOL, OR ANY
MEDICATION.
■
ALWAYS STAY ALERT! Do not allow familiarity (gained
from frequent use of your cut-off machine) to cause a
careless mistake. ALWAYS REMEMBER that a careless
fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict severe injury.
■
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.
■
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. Refer to them frequently
and use them to instruct other users. If you loan someone
this tool, loan them these instructions also.
