SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:
Warning: When using air tools, basic safety precautions should always be followed to
reduce the risk of injury, including the following:
1. Avoid accidental starting.
-Keep needle valve shutoff closed when transporting or repositioning
2. Disconnect Machine.
-This tool should be disconnected when not in use. If hydraulic power is
shutoff, tool should be discharged of any stored fluid pressure.
3. Maximum Hydraulic Pressure
-Maximum hydraulic pressure is 2000 PSI.
-Use 100 SUS Fluid w/ a 10 Micron filter at power source.
4. Protect fluid lines
-Avoid using excessive length lines. Extended lines reduce tool power and are a
working hazard.
-Inspect all hydraulic lines for safe condition before use.
5. Maintain Tool.
-Use sharp blades and keep Saw clean for optimum performance.
-Keep handles clean, dry and free from oil and grease.
6. Do not force tool.
-Use tool mounted in WIDDER®clamp with clamp tightly secured to work
piece.
-Cut should be performed with adequate force to develop chips during cutting
but not so as to stall the tool under load.
7. Support work piece
-Be sure to support the work piece on both sides of any cut. An
unsupported work piece can sag, pinching the blade and causing the blade to
break or shatter.
8. Dress properly.
-Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as they can be caught in moving parts.
-Work gloves and non-skid footwear are recommended.
-Wear ear protection.
-Wear safety glasses.
9. Maintenance.
-Maintenance should be performed by a WIDDER®Factory Authorized
Service Representative.
10. Replacement Parts.
-When servicing use only genuine WIDDER®replacement parts from an
authorized distributor.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
Warning: Operator should be thoroughly familiar with safety precautions before
attempting to operate this tool.
1. Install saw blade firmly with Lock plate and pin engaged with blade.
2. Be sure saw is firmly mounted on WIDDER®Pipe Clamp. Close needle valve.
3. Start power source.
4. Adjust needle valve to desired speed.
5. Manually feed blade into cut, applying enough pressure to produce chips shaped like
small 6 or 9 shaped pieces. Adjust saw speed to compensate for load if required.
6. If possible, apply lubricant, water, or air blast to cut. This will extend blade life, speed
cutting time, and keep the blade and work piece cool.
7. CAUTION: No steel cutting blade can cut without the chance of heat or sparks. Do
not use tool in explosive environments without following all industry accepted practices
for safe power tool and metal working operation.
