Machine and Work Area Set-Up

WARNING
To prevent serious injury, proper set-up of the
machine and work area is required. The following
procedures should be following to set-up the abra-
sive cut-off machine:
Work Area
1. Locate a work area that has the following:
• Adequate lighting
• No flammable liquids, vapors or dust that may ignite.
• Grounded 15 amp electrical outlet.
• Clear path to the electrical outlet that does not
contain any sources of heat or oil, sharp edges or
moving parts that may damage the electrical cord.
• Dry place for machine and operator. Do not use
the machine while standing in water.
• Level ground where there is plenty of room for
handling and supporting workpiece.
Do not set or mount tool on a flammable
WARNING
surface or use the abrasive cut-off machine near flam-
mable materials. Sparks and hot chips from grinding of the
workpiece could ignite flammable materials.
2. Clean up the work area prior to setting up any equip-
ment. To prevent slips and falls, always wipe up any
oil that may be present.
3. Place the machine on a flat, level table. Secure the
tool to its support if it tends to slip, walk, or slide during
use.
Failure to place the machine on a stable
WARNING
surface may result in tipping and serious injury.
4. If workpiece extends beyond the table, use one or
more supports.
WARNING
Failure to properly support the workpiece
can result in the unit tipping or the workpiece falling.
5. Plug the machine into the electrical outlet making
sure to position the power cord along the clear path
selected earlier. If the power cord does not reach the
outlet, use an extension cord in good condition.
WARNING
fires, never use an extension cord that is damaged or
does not meet the following requirements:
• The cord has a three-prong plug similar to shown in
Electrical Safety section.
• The cord is rated as "W" or "W-A" if being used out-
doors.
• The cord has sufficient wire thickness (14 AWG below
25'/12 AWG 25' - 50'). If the wire thickness is too
small, the cord may overheat, melting the cord's insu-
lation or causing nearby objects to ignite.
WARNING
electrical connections dry and off the ground. Do not
touch plug with wet hands. Make sure power cord is
clear of abrasive wheel.
NOTE! Use of extension cords over 50 ft is not recom-
mended. An improper extension cord will result
in deterioration of the performance of the cut-off
machine.
6. Check the unit to insure it is operating properly.
• To start the tool, firmly grasp the handle then depress
trigger switch (Figure 5). Keep your body positioned to
either side of the wheel but not in line with the wheel.
• Depress and hold the switch for one full minute. Inspect
the moving parts for misalignment, binding, odd noises
or any other unusual conditions that may affect the
safe and normal operation of the machine. If such con-
ditions are present, have the machine serviced.
• If abrasive wheel wobbles or vibrates discard and
replace immediately.
WARNING
ing serious injury to you or bystanders.
• Release the trigger switch.
