SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
CUTTING WHEEL SAFETY
•Do not store or transport the saw with the wheel in- stalled.
•Ensure that the cutting wheel is correctly mounted and tightened before use.
•Operate the Rail Saw at “no load” for 30 seconds in a safe position and ensure there is no vibration or other defects detected. If considerable vibration or other defects are detected, stop operation of the tool immediately and determine the cause. Do not use the tool until the defect is corrected.
•If the Rail Saw is dropped with a cutting wheel in- stalled, the cutting wheel should be examined thor- oughly before use.
•Only use cutting wheels that comply with ANSI B7.5/ ISO 525, 603.
•Check that the maximum operating speed (rpm – revolutions per minute) of the cutting wheel is equal to or greater than the rated shaft speed of the grind- er. Stanley recommends wheels rated at 4700 RPM for 16 inch models and 5300 RPM for 14 inch mod- els.
