WARNING:

•When using an abrasive cut-off / diamond wheel, be sure to use only the special wheel guard designed for use with cut-off wheels.

•NEVER use cut-off wheel for side grinding.

•Do not "jam" the wheel or apply excessive pressure. Do not attempt to make an excessive depth of cut. Overstressing the wheel increases the loading and susceptibility to twisting or binding of the wheel in the cut and the possibility of kickback, wheel breakage and overheating of the motor may occur.

•Do not start the cutting operation in the workpiece. Let the wheel reach full speed and carefully enter into the cut moving the tool forward over the workpiece surface. The wheel may bind, walk up or kickback if the power tool is started in the workpiece.

•During cutting operations, never change the angle of the wheel. Placing side pressure on the cut-off

wheel (as in grinding) will cause the wheel to crack and break, causing serious personal injury.

•A diamond wheel shall be operated perpendicular to the material being cut.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:

•Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance.

•Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
