1.Release the trigger switch turning the saw off.

2.Place a padlock, with a shank diameter of 13/16" (21mm) or less, through the hole in the trigger and close it. This makes the trigger switch inoperable. See Figure 11.

3.Place the key for the padlock in a secure location.

USING THE CUT-OFF SAW

Disconnect the abrasive Cut-off saw from the AC power source eliminating any accidental starting of the motor.

Before using the saw, ensure the wheel has cooled down from any previous actions. Wear approved leather work gloves when handling the various workpieces and to protect the hands from a hot Cut-off wheel.

FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW TO OPERATE THE ABRASIVE CUT-OFF SAW. SEE FIGURE 12.

1.Adjust the angle of cut. See ADJUSTING THE WORK VISE on pages 15-16.

2.Turn the screw clamp clockwise to securely tighten the workpiece in the vise.

3.Plug the power cord into an approved GROUNDED AC receptacle.

4.Grip the handle and place thumb over the safety button.

5.Press the safety button with thumb. Squeeze the trigger switch. Release the

safety button.

6. Allow the Cut-off saw to spin up to full speed.

7. Slowly pull down on the handle while continuing to squeeze trigger switch. Lower the Cut-off wheel slowly into the workpiece.

THE CUT-OFF SAW

8.Ensure the abrasive Cut-off wheel cuts completely through the workpiece. Should the Cut-off wheel fail to pass through the workpiece, raise the handle until it clears. Turn off the Cut-off saw and remove the power cord from the AC receptacle. Refer to SETTING THE CUT-OFF WHEEL DEPTH GAUGE.

9.Once the cut is completed, turn off the Cut-off saw by releasing the trigger switch. This also allows the safety button to return to the “OFF” position. See Figure 8.

10.Unplug the Cut-off saw from the AC power source. Ensure the abrasive wheel has stopped spinning before removing the workpiece.

11.Use a dry, soft bristle, brush or an air hose and clean any debris remaining from the cut.

12.Lock down the Cut-off saw with the swing lock handle. Using a pad lock secure the trigger switch. Store the abrasive Cut-off saw in a dry safe location.

SETTING THE CUT-OFF WHEEL DEPTH GAUGE

The cutting depth of the abrasive Cut-off wheel can be set using the adjustment screw on the wheel housing. See Figure 13.

1. Locate the depth adjustment screw.

2. Adjust the screw counterclockwise to increase the depth of cut. Tighten the jam nut.

3. Loosen the jam nut and turn the screw clockwise to decrease the depth of cut. Tighten the jam nut.

FIGURE 13. SETTING THE

DEPTH GAUGE

For cutting sections of the workpiece completely off, ensure the depth adjustment screw is set allowing the abrasive Cut-off wheel to go beyond the base surface into the groove provided.
