WARNING!
Ensure the guard is in the
maximum cutting disc covering position over the workpiece. Do not use the cutting off
grinders without guards in position.
cutting disc. It is important to position your body and the guard to minimize body exposure
from the possible fragments of a disintegrating cutting disc.
Cutting discs running over the rated speed
can disintegrate and cause injury.
This includes face shield,
safety goggles, dust mask and gloves.
Do not use a cutting
disc that may be damaged. Fragments from a cutting disc that disintegrates during
operation can cause serious injury or property damage.
Proper support of the workpiece is
important to keep the cut-off and over-hanging metal from falling and striking the operator.
Avoid bouncing the cutting disc or giving it rough treatment. If
the cutting disc is damaged due to misuse, it may develop cracks and disintegrate without
warning.
The cutting disc should have
marked speed equal to or greater than that marked on the machine. Read the operating
instructions supplied by the cutting disc manufacturer.
These blades are not intended
for this machine and could create loss of control during use or cause injury to persons and
damage to property.
Cutting wood and plastic could
cause them to burn due to friction heating.
Dust generated by cutting masonry will clog the motor
causing premature failure and thereby voiding the warranty.
Sparks from the motor
or cutting may ignite dust and fumes.
The dust generated when cutting magnesium is
highlyammableandmaybeexplosiveundercertainconditions.
Excessive accumulation of
powered metal inside the motor housing may cause electrical failures.
The wide vice opening and high pivot point provide cutting capacity for many large pieces. Use
the cutting capacity chart below to determine the maximum size of cuts that can be made with
a new wheel.
Capacity shown on the chart assumes no cutting disc wear and optimum fence position.
