Additional Safety Rules for Chop Saws

•Always wear proper eye and respiratory protection.

•Before using, inspect the cutting wheel for cracks or flaws. If such a crack or flaw is evident, discard the wheel. The wheel should also be inspected whenever you think the tool may have been dropped. Flaws may cause wheel breakage.

•When starting the tool with a new or replacement wheel or if you are unsure of the condition of the wheel, hold the tool in a well protected area and let it run for one minute. If the wheel has an undetected crack or flaw, it should burst in less than one minute. Never start the tool with a person in line with the wheel. This includes the operator.

•In operation, avoid bouncing the wheel or giving it rough treatment. If this occurs, stop the tool and inspect the wheel for cracks or flaws.

•Clean your chop saw periodically following the procedure in this manual.

•Do not remove wheel guards or base.

•ALWAYS US E THE VISE OR SPECIAL FIXTURE TO CLAMP WORK SECURELY. Other aids such as spring, bar, or C-clamps may be appropriate for certain sizes and shapes of workpiece. Use care in selecting and placing these clamps and make a dry run before making a cut.

•Use only 14" type 1 wheels rated at 4100 rpm or higher.

•Allow cut off parts to cool before handling.

•Do not attempt to cut wood or plastic with this tool.

•NEVER CUT MAGNESIUM WITH THIS TOOL.

•Use chop saw in a well-ventilated area.

•Turn chop saw off before removing any pieces from the base.

•DO NOT CUT ELECTRICALLY LIVE MATERIAL.

•Do not use circular saw blades or any other toothed blades with this tool. Serious injury may result.

•DO NOT OPERATE THIS TOOL NEAR FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS, GASES OR DUST. Sparks or hot chips from cutting or arcing motor brushes may ignite combustible materials.

•Do not use the side of the abrasive wheel as a deburring grinder. This will substantially weaken the wheel creating an unsafe condition. The wheel may come apart.
