contacts the workpiece. Flip the vise nut to the right and
then turn the vise handle clockwise to securely retain the
workpiece.
CAUTION:
• Always set the vise nut to the right fully when
securing the workpiece. Failure to do so may result
in insufficient securing of the workpiece. This could
cause the workpiece to be ejected or cause a
dangerous breakage of the wheel.
When the cut-off wheel has worn down considerably, use
a spacer block of sturdy, non-flammable material behind
the workpiece as shown in the figure. You can more effi-
ciently utilize the worn wheel by using the mid point on
the periphery of the wheel to cut the workpiece.
When cutting workpieces over 65 mm (2-9/16") wide at
an angle, attach a straight piece of wood (spacer) over
190 mm (7-1/2") long x 45 mm (1-3/4") wide to the guide
plate as shown in the figure. Attach this spacer with
screws through the holes in the guide plate.

If you use a spacer block which is slightly narrower than
the workpiece as shown in the figure, you can also utilize
the wheel economically.

Long workpieces must be supported by blocks of non-

OPERATION
Hold the handle firmly. Switch on the tool and wait until
the wheel attains full speed before lowering gently into
the cut. When the wheel contacts the workpiece, gradu-
ally bear down on the handle to perform the cut. When
the cut is completed, switch off the tool and WAIT UNTIL
THE WHEEL HAS COME TO A COMPLETE STOP
before returning the handle to the fully elevated position.
CAUTION:
• Proper handle
maximum cutting efficiency can be determined by
the amount of sparks that is produced while cutting.
Your pressure on the handle should be adjusted to
produce the maximum amount of sparks. Do not
force the cut by applying excessive pressure on the
handle. Reduced cutting efficiency, premature
wheel wear, as well as, possible damage to the tool,
cut-off wheel or workpiece may result.
