BURST HAZARD!
• Do not exceed 90 psi (6.2 bar) of tool inlet pressure. Permanent tool damage
and/or bursting could occur and cause personal injury.
INJURY HAZARD!
• This tool has high-speed, highly abrasive cutting surfaces which can quickly
cause severe injury. Keep fingers and hands away from moving parts when
operating. Wear thick, well-fitting work gloves and keep loose clothing,
sleeves, cords, jewelry and hair away from moving parts.
• This tool will eject a trail of sparks at high speed which can ignite flammable
materials or injure others nearby. Do not operate in the vicinity of flammable
materials and keep all persons and pets away from the work area.
• Do not force tool or exert side forces on Cut-Off Wheel while cutting as
the tool body can suddenly kick back or twist causing severe hand or wrist
injury. Cut-Off Wheels can shatter with excessive side force causing them to
disintegrate and eject sharp pieces at high velocity.
• Always make sure the workpiece being cut is securely clamped or anchored
to avoid sudden movements which could result in injury.
• Frequently inspect Cut-Off Wheel and tool condition. If cracks or chips de-
velop, discontinue tool use immediately and replace damaged Wheel. ONLY
USE replacement Wheels rated at 20,000 RPM or greater. Severe injury can
result in the event of Cut-Off Wheel failure.
• Disconnect air supply from the tool to prevent accidental starting and poten-
tial injury while installing or removing Cut-off Wheels.
VIBRATION INJURY HAZARD!
• This tool will vibrate during use! Repeated exposure to vibration may cause
physical injury.
SET-UP & CONNECTION
• Thread the included 1/4” Male NPT quick disconnect fitting into the 1/4” NPT inlet threads
of the Cut-off tool.
• Attach Air Supply to Inlet Fitting.
INSTALL CUT-OFF WHEEL (NOT INCLUDED)
• The Cut-Off Wheels are removed and installed
by gripping the flats on the output shaft with the
included 14mm Flat Arbor Wrench while placing
the Included 5mm Hex Key Wrench into the
Socket Head Wheel Retaining Screw threaded
into the arbor shaft.
• Turn the screw in a counter-clockwise direction
when viewed from the end. Remove Retaining
Washer (note outward orientation of beveled
edge) then remove cutting wheel (Fig 1).
• Place replacement wheel over the stepped 3/8"
[9.5mm] diameter portion of the shaft, replace
Retaining Washer in the proper bevel-out position.
• Re-install the Socket Head Wheel Retaining Screw, then use the wrenches to tighten (Fig 1).
FIG. 1
Be sure that the air supply to the tool is clean and dry. Moisture in the supply line
will quickly damage the air motor and valves. A minimum 3/8” I.D. air line should be
used for optimal performance.
INJURY HAZARD!
• Disconnect air supply from the tool to prevent accidental starting and potential injury while
installing or removing Cut-off Wheels.
INJURY HAZARD!
• To avoid injury, only use replacement Wheels rated for High-RPM, (20,000 or greater) use.
Be sure the Socket Head Wheel Retaining Screw is securely
tightened on the output shaft before operating tool.
