Install the cover (A) on the tool so that its side with “Upside ” mark faces upward.

OPERATION

003545 Adjust the amount of water flow. Hold the tool firmly. Set the base plate on the workpiece to be cut without the wheel mak- ing any contact. Then turn the tool on and wait until the wheel attains full speed. Now simply move the tool forward over the workpiece surface, keeping it flat and advancing smoothly until the cutting is completed. Keep your cutting line straight and your speed of advance uniform.

CAUTION:

THIS TOOL SHOULD ONLY BE USED ON HORIZONTAL SURFACES.

Be sure to move the tool forward in a straight line and gently. Forcing and exerting excessive pressure or allowing the wheel to bend, pinch or twist in the cut can cause overheating of the motor and dangerous kickback of the tool.

Since excessive cutting may cause overload of the motor, the depth of cut should not be more than 20 mm (13/16”) at a pass. When you wish to cut more than 20 mm (13/16”) deep, make a couple of passes with progressively deeper settings.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:

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