Wet or Dry Operation
This unit is designed to be operated for

suppression kit is available for this unit
but is not supplied in the unit packaging.
Please refer to the assembly and operating
instructions supplied with the water dust-

Adjust the position of the wheel guard

if the wheel fractures. To reposition the
wheel guard, loosen the lock knob (coun-
terclockwise). When the wheel guard is
positioned correctly, securely tighten the
lock knob. See Figure 15.

cutting between 8,500 and 9,500 min
(rpm). While running the engine at full
throttle, apply slight pressure to the cut-
off wheel against an object so that engine
speed stays at 8,500–9,500 min
Too much pressure to the wheel will lower
wheel speed, reducing cutting efficiency
considerably.
