pressure which causes over bending of wires, leading to
premature breakage.
Operation with abrasive cut-off wheel
(optional accessory)
005837
WARNING:
When using an abrasive cut-off wheel, be sure to
•
use only the special wheel guard designed for use
with cut-off wheels.
NEVER use cut-off wheel for side grinding.
•
Do not "jam" the wheel or apply excessive pressure.
•
Do not attempt to make an excessive depth of cut.
Overstressing the wheel increases the loading and
susceptibility to twisting or binding of the wheel in
the cut and the possibility of kickback, wheel
breakage and overheating of the motor may occur.
Do not start the cutting operation in the workpiece.
•
Let the wheel reach full speed and carefully enter
into the cut moving the tool forward over the
workpiece surface. The wheel may bind, walk up
or kickback if the power tool is started in the
workpiece.
During cutting operations, never change the angle
•
of the wheel. Placing side pressure on the cut-off
wheel (as in grinding) will cause the wheel to crack
and break, causing serious personal injury.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
•
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection
or maintenance.
Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
•
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may
result.
The tool and its air vents have to be kept clean. Regularly
clean the tool's air vents or whenever the vents start to
become obstructed.
